I created a new email account, [redacted], to use as an alternative since I was having issues with my original account, [redacted], and its password being continuously changed. Unfortunately, the same problem is happening with the new email account, where the password keeps being changed without my authorization. I am unable to reset it because the verification code is being sent to someone else. This situation is causing delays as I have to wait 6 hours to attempt to reset it, and even then, I encounter errors during the process. Additionally, there are emails arriving in my inbox that appear to be coming from my own iCloud address, which is perplexing.

My Google account was hacked by my brother using our shared wifi. He accessed my Google photos and took some pictures. I discovered this through the "Where you're logged in" section of my Google account security settings. I have already logged out from his device to prevent further access to my personal information and privacy. Unfortunately, this is not the first time he has done this. I am facing challenges because our wifi is shared within the family, leaving me with little privacy. I would appreciate it if Google could assist me in verifying whether the photos he saved can be deleted from his device or his Google photos account. I hope Google can enhance the security measures to protect the privacy and safety of its users.

I am encountering difficulties with my Google account ([redacted]). I forgot my password and attempted to reset it. Following the retrieval email sent to my recovery email ([redacted]), I was asked to enter a secondary verification code dispatched to my old phone number ([redacted]). Despite confirming my identity through other methods, the system insisted on using the outdated phone number ([redacted]) for verification. I received a security alert on my recovery email, mentioning a sign-in link will be sent in 6 hours - however, I am unable to access it due to the password issue. It is unclear why the link is being sent to an inaccessible account. I seek a resolution as I have multiple ways to verify my identity.

I created a Gmail account a few weeks ago for my new business. I attempted to email approximately [redacted] clients using BCC in batches of 50 to ensure delivery, but only a few received it. Some went to spam, and many didn't receive it at all. I am now unable to send individual emails. I enabled two-factor authentication, avoided caps and bad links, yet my emails are still marked as spam. This hinders my communication with clients. It's crucial that I reach out to them promptly.

I'm confused why Gmail doesn't offer live support considering its popularity. It's frustrating to be locked out for making a simple mistake like clearing the cache and not realizing my outdated verification settings. The lack of helpful options to recover my account is frustrating. I really need access to my account.

Hello, I'm Ian Hernandez. I need assistance with my email account [redacted] I am experiencing trouble logging in from my usual device. Despite previously logging in from this device and selecting "remember my device," I am now unable to access my account. Previously, I could log in after two-step verification, but now I am faced with continuous login issues. Even after attempting from a different device and adjusting preferences on my computer, I encounter the same problem. The system prompts me for two-step verification with only one unavailable option, as I no longer have that phone number. Urgently resolve this matter as I must access my account from various devices without complications. Thank you, Ian Hernandez.
