I need help, I know my risks asking for help on 4chan but I genuinely cannot get any help from google's stupid recovery page and youtube team supports slow response times, my accounts have been compromised and I need help as fast as possible so no more damage is done.
Install Gentoo
How would that help me?
>jewgle
>>109782998I can help you out. What's your gmail password?
>SAAAAR soldier
They changed everything. Even if I gave a password it wouldn't help, they locked my account to become a "family" account which requires parental control.
>>109782998Why do you think we are interested in helping you? This board is just AI and frog threads anyway. Do a better job at looking after your details going forward.I've signed your email up to a bunch of porn websites to teach you a lesson. Enjoy the marketing.
>>109782998Good evenings saarr I am 4chan tech suppart how may I helping you todaaayyy???
>>109783115Yes I will helping you now. Please buy google gift card saar
I and a friend who fell for the "Try my game" scam on discord.Immediately all his logins got grabbed, he got locked out of all of his acocunts, and some Turkish guy messaged him and demanded a ransom of $500 in bitcoin for his accounts back.Just like you, the turk had setup himself as my friend's parent and blocked all sign ins. Google was of zero assistance getting the account back. Discord was no help since my friend didn't have access to the original email.He managed to recover everything except discord and google.And needless to say you probably have a RAT/Infostealer on your computer. Nuke your install, change all your logins and stop being a nigger.
>>109782998I have no idea. I've always been autistic and paranoid about security and never been pwned like this.Here's what chatgpt says thoughbeit:- Go to https://accounts.google.com/signin/recovery - Enter the Gmail address, then keep choosing “Try another way” to see all options. - Use a device/browser and location you’ve used to sign in before, on your usual Wi‑Fi. - Provide the last password you remember and accurate answers. Add a reachable contact email. - If you use 2‑Step Verification, try backup codes, a security key, Google Prompt on another signed‑in device, or “Try another way.” - If you regain access, immediately: - Change the password and sign out of all devices. - Check and fix: recovery phone/email, 2‑Step Verification, third‑party app access, recent security activity. - In Gmail settings, review Filters/Forwarding, Send mail as, POP/IMAP, signature, vacation responder, and Delegation. - Run antivirus and update devices.- If recovery fails: wait 24–72 hours and try again with the above tips. For work/school (Google Workspace) accounts, contact your domain admin. Google doesn’t offer manual recovery for personal accounts.Helpful: recovery tips https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/7299973 and hacked account guide https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6294825
I hope you don't use the Chrome password manager. If you do, every online account is now fucked.
>>109783329Do people really do this? Grim. Everytime I ask myself if I'm being too schizo with security I think about some guy having his entire internet presence hacked like that and realize that I am sane.
>>109783410I have all my passwords in a notebook.I feel more secure than any schizo with convoluted "secure" managers.
>>109783450All you need is>https://www.passwordstore.org/And it isn't "secure". It is bulletproof.
>>109783499I dont know man, looks "secure" to me.My drawer is not this complicated. Its also dark in there, no other processes can snoop around in ere.
>>109783537Explain how a plaintext file encrypted with gpg is complicated and "secure".
>>109783568Its on a computer.
>>109783587You're retarded. Got it.
>>109783606Says Anon-chama, who keeps secrets in his puter, lol.
>>109782998>>109782998Keep clicking the "more verification options" or whatever and there should be something eventually that you can provide to show you are you. Once you've done that change the password and add 2fa + handwritten recovery keys in your sock drawer. I would be paranoid someone used a credential stealer and start your computer from zero. Complete wipe, audit every extension, assume someone snuck something in to own you so you need to be paranoid about what you hold onto on reinstall. Photos and save games and notes are fine. Be wary of programs and extensions in particular, especially anything new over the last 6 months. People do steal credentials in other ways but anything with access and the ability to run (eg not a text file or dll) is the most likely. Don't be afraid to run virustotal on everything you can. It's annoying and tedious but worth it to prevent this shit from happening again. If you pirated something it's possible it wasn't actually a false positive this time, so nuke that shit from orbit. Good luck big dawg, this shit blows so do what you can to stop this happening again.
>>109782998Dude, you fucked up by including your address in the image.Sadly, I don't know enough about Google's recovery process to help but if you do recover your account you should make a new email (as in, on a different service) and transfer everything over as quickly as possible. You probably already know this, but also make sure to use 2 factor authentication,different passwords on every site, ideally a password manager, etc.
>>109782998And how would people here help exactly? Go to google's recovery page and pray for the best. I had my account stolen some time ago too, but I had a second account connected to it and managed to recover it that way. I might have had a phone number on that account too.
>>109783033No
>>109783410Only for throwaway accs on sites i dont plan on using much
>>109782998All the 1337 h4xx0r tricks that people here might have known, are tricks that haven't worked for 15 years. I'm afraid nobody here can help you unless they actually work for Google, which they don't.
>>109783033How do I quickscope
>>109782998Ive had this happen before and somehow they bypassed all 2FA and changed things, but I was able to get them back because all the changes they made were so rapid it set off alarm bells
>>109782998Were your accounts tied to a phone number? The phone number might be, in my opinion, one of your best bets at recovering it. All of google's recovery shit is automated now though. You can't talk to a real person about it.
>>109782998you will end up having to provide your ID to google to verify your identity. might as well search the internet for "gmail hacked provide id" or w/e
>>109783192God bless you anon.
>>109782998If you have credi cards on that account call your bank. Cut your losses. Google doesn't give a fuck about you or anyone>worked at Google for a year
>>109782998Next time don't tea bag anyone on your favorite shooter and they won't pwn your stuff, lass.
Redeem sir
>>109787279Silence, dalit
>>109783192>I've signed your email up to a bunch of porn websites to teach you a lesson. Enjoy the marketing.geeeeg i've done the same to both addresses
>>109782998In the future, store your passwords and any login info on programs like Bitwarden You have lost whatever they have taken from you, move on
>>109783450>I have all my passwords in a notebook.same. anything else is faggot jew shit
>>109787683>>109783329>>109783410Not trolling even though it might sound like I am. How is something like bitwarden more secure than the Chrome password manager? I realize one might be local and the other in the cLoUd, but unless they manage to hack Google (which is something I'm not going to consider a possibility for the sake of this argument), I don't see how something local is any better.
>>109788059Chrome stores ur passwords and its very easy for someone decrypt it if u get virus on ur pcif its behind bitwarden its tied to the GDID of the operating system. and it will little harder for them to get ur passwords. They can still get it by keylogging ur system. Just use username different for every website and unique password.
>>109783070You'd stop caring about whatever faggotry you're whining about.
>>109782998>Choose a parent>1 choiceYou're getting adopted whether you like it or not faggot
>>109783450Same, its also a random assortment of drunken schizo-tier ramblings, drawings, pizza toppings and shopping lists and even I have to take a minute to find the actual working passwords.
If you fall for a scam or phishing attempt like this then you honestly deserved it.Next time try actually learning some basic online security or have some real common fucking sense for once. All you can do now is beg for Google to get it back for you anyway, good luck.
>>109788095That's funny because it's also true. This thread can be archived now.
should of 2 step verification
>>109783115>they locked my account to become a "family" account which requires parental control.Genius!!
>>109788089Damn been reading up a bit on this and yeah I'll definitely be doing some research this weekend on switching over to something different
>>109788059>>109788089I've never understood why people say dedicated password managers are much better than the default browser ones. If you get a keylogger don't you get fucked the same either way?
>>109782998lmao good lucknext time use 2FA
>>109782998This is why I have all my email go through a domain name that I own. Google did this to me and I just dropped the account.Unfortunately >>109783033 is correct. By outsourcing your life to an uncaring public corporation you pre-screwed yourself
>>109783499honestly the worst part is that you can't make unlocking take longerif your key and encrypted password files are stolen it's not nearly long enough to stop a bruteforce shitter
>>109788814I don't think OP clarified this, but if you get malware or keylogged on your system then yeah, it doesn't matter. But if you use a dedicated password manager and somehow only your Google account gets hacked and not your PC, then the passwords stored on your unhacked PC password manager would presumably be safe
>>109789032me againi guess keeping your private key on a smartcard/security key with a backup on an airgapped machine could be enough
>>109782998>Use passkeys>Problem solved
>>109788814Not if the password manager autofills and saves the generated password for you, as well as managing 2FA.
>>109782998
>>109788814In the incredibly unlikely event that someone installed a keylogger on my computer, it would have no impact on my password manager seeing as how my passwords are encrypted with a 4K RSA key stored on a Yubikey that's hard locked to require physical interaction for every decryption operation, and removing this setting would result in the key getting erased.The real way to get my passwords is to silently log the contents of my clipboard. Unfortunately I also use 2FA for everything so you also need to steal either my phone or my Yubikey and the password for the Yubikey, and that's before getting into the IP whitelist on my mail server that's physically right next to me right now.
>>109791913yeah but if someone drops an actual RAT or anything other than a simple keylogger (which most malware is more than just a keylogger now) it can easily bypass all that shit
>>109792161No, a RAT cannot press the button on the Yubikey, nor can it read the secrets off of my phone or the keys off of the Yubikey.
>>109791840There's always that one heeb that reinstates accounts because he wants people to have fun.
>>109782998OP are you still here and do you still need help?
Yeah so there is a good chance the OP is actually a victim of a scam here, not a kid. Just saying. This is a thing.... A findom thinghttps://www.tiktok.com/@theelizamonique/video/7436907113416346888
