My email as hacked!

[kokopelli]

my email that I've had for 19 years, with my Kokopelli handle apparently has been hacked and taken over...I called tech support and barely understood the guy, and it seems they have changed the name attached to the the account already... He had me send in a copy of my ID, hopefully they can get it back to me!

If I got ahold of whoever does this I think Id beat them within an inch of their life. I hate scumbags like this.

Turn on 2 factor authentication when you get it back. It make is a lot harder to hack.

You go to login and they text or email you a security code. So basically 2 step login

Get LastPass and you won’t have to remember that password. It’s free and generates passwords for you

Keepass is opensource and free. Been using it for about 8 years now. Just pick a significantly long master password with whatever password manager you use. And remember..... The government can't hack long passwords quickly. Mine is 27 characters long and will take approximately 7.357972822428062e+28 years according to this site: https://random-ize.com/how-long-to-hack-pass/

I use it on everything, except work. They have their own ways.
I like the text message numbers most. I can be irritating at times tho. Like when your'e in a hurry.
