What steps can I take if I suspect my Fortnite account has been hacked?

If a user suspects that their Fortnite account has been hacked, there are several important steps that Epic Games recommends taking promptly to secure the account. First, the user should attempt to log in to their account. If login is unsuccessful, it is possible that the password has been changed by the unauthorized individual. Next, if the user still has access to the email associated with the account, they should check for any account-related messages from Epic Games. These may include notifications about changes made, such as password modifications or attempts to log in to the account from unfamiliar devices. It is essential to change the account password immediately if the user can still access it. This can be done through the Epic Games account settings. The user should also consider enabling two-factor authentication, which adds an additional layer of security. If the user believes other personal details have been compromised, it may be wise to reach out to friends and family to inform them of the situation. While it is not advisable to directly contact Epic Games, relevant information may be available on their website. Users can consult the support pages for guidance on securing their accounts and addressing potential hacking incidents.
