Like the title says, I’ve got yesterday an email with a code to access my Microsoft account and that made me suspicious because I wasn’t trying to login to my account. When I looked at the login attempts I saw that someone else was trying to access my account, I changed my password, activated TFA. Thinking of going through and buying a physical key like yubico to further secure my account. Any tips are appreciated.

    Same, since it’s a ms account I have a ton of stuff linked to it and can’t simply close it. You can change your login email, as far as I can tell you still get the emails that were sent to the old address, just moving forward what you sign in with is different. That slowed it down a little bit for me.

      That’s good to know. I’ll give it a shot setting up another alias but still keeping the address functional
