What to do when yours Email Account get's HACKED..

Its a very bad news if ur email is really hacked. If someone's takes control of ur email account its a very big disaster. Specially for those contain Confidential Information like Bank logins, Credit Card details and other Sensitive data.
If you are one such Internet user whose email account has been hacked, then this post will surely help you out.
What to do when yours Email Account get's HACKED..

There are two steps :
Lets began with 1st

First method --
Try resetting your password since it is the easiest way to get your account back in action. In this process Google may ask you to answer the secret question or may send the password reset details to the secondary email address associated with your compromised account. You can reset you password from the following link
https://www.google.com/accounts/recovery?gaps=AHwGkRn9pxGIkQk2cIJKo65OFU9swpnjjdxYIsal1xGXPc0eOqY5Z1eOL%2F9lNNnUq%2ByP37QtsOERWaY5qPDQ9GVOkKoi%2FWivKQ%3D%3D

If you cannot find success from the Method -1 then proceed to

Method - 2 --

Many times the hacker will change the secret question and secondary email address right after the account is compromised. This is the reason for the Password Reset process to fail. If this is the case then you need to contact the Gmail support team by filling out the account recovery form. This form will ask you to fill out several questions like
1. Email addresses of up to five frequently emailed contacts
2. Names of any 4 Labels that you may have created in your account
3. List of other services associated with your compromised account
4. Your last successful login date
5. Account created date
6. Last password that you remember and many more…
You need to fill out this form as much accurately as possible. It is obvious to forget the dates of last login, account creation and similar terms. However you need to figure out the closest possible date/answers and fill out this form. This is your last chance! The more accurate the information filled out in the recovery form, the more the chances of getting your account back. You may reach the account recovery page form the following link
https://www.google.com/accounts/recovery/?&hl=en

For Yahoo and Hotmail:

Unfortunately for Yahoo/Hotmail there is no second option like filling out the form or contacting the support team.
All you need to do is either answer the secret questions that you have setup or reset the password using the secondary email option.
To initiate the password reset process just click on the Forgot password link in your login page and proceed as per the screen instructions.
Hope u get ur email account back
