Twitter is one of the major social networking platforms; It is an online platform that people use to express their views or opinions on a topic. You get all the information about the latest trends and news only from Twitter. Most of the celebrities and celebrities connect with people through their Twitter. Due to all this, Twitter accounts have become more vulnerable to hacking and thus it has become more important to protect your Twitter account.
Unfortunately, if your Twitter account has been hacked, this blog will talk about all the possible ways to recover your Twitter account.
Before that, let me tell you that when someone tries to hack into your account, they know your password or try to reset it if they have access to your email address or phone number. So you have to be careful with that. So, whenever you receive an email stating if you have requested to reset your account password, click this button, you should first see if the email is coming from an official Twitter email address or if someone is trying to to rip him off
Then, if you haven’t requested a password reset, first delete the email you received and quickly secure your email address by changing your password so the hacker will lose access to your email address and Twitter account.
In case a hacker has changed your Twitter password, here are your options:
1. Recover your Twitter account using your email address or phone number
- Go www.twitter.com and click ‘Login’
- Then click on ‘I forgot my password’
- Enter your Twitter username, email or phone number; click ‘Search’
- Select one of the following options, then click ‘Next’:
- Get the code on your phone number
- Receive the code in your email address
- Enter the code you received, and then you can reset your password to protect your Twitter account.
2. Recover your Twitter account without using your phone number or email address
It may also happen that the hacker has changed your recovery email address and phone number and now you can’t reset your password, here’s what to do in that case:
- Go www.twitter.com and click ‘Login’
- Then click on ‘I forgot my password’
- Enter your Twitter username, email or phone number; click ‘Search’
- You will get two options:
