If there any payments you did not authorize, you can report them to Google and get a refund. Check your financial activity on Google services like Google Play, Google Pay or Google Ads.If you notice changes in your recovery email account, phone number, location sharing, etc. Check to see if someone tampered with your security settings.
Also, look out for third party websites where you logged in with Gmail, especially if you used your credit card to buy something there. These can be other Google services, like YouTube, Google Photos, Google Drive, and other linked Gmail accounts.
Look for any suspicious activity on other websites linked to your Gmail. If you get notified of a log in from a device you can’t recognize, confirm it is not you and block this device from accessing your profile. First of all, Google always notifies you of a new device logging into your account, showing its location. I didn't set up back up codes or emails on this account. I know as much identifying information as one could possibly know about the account I just don't have the original phone + phone number. Has anyone had any experience getting out of a situation like this? I am still using the same computer and accessing the same IP address I have used to sign into the account previously. It is my personal and work email and I have a big project with collaborators I am working on that is due in the next couple of days. I'm sort of panicking right now as this account has my entire life on it. Now I'm prompted for my two factor authentication but I fucking forgot to setup my new phone to my gmail before I purged my old phone. Before when I went to sign into my gmail I was just automatically signed in. This seems to have cleared some cookies but not all of them. I got a new phone and phone number then cancelled my old phone number and reset my old phone.Ī few days later I was having an issue on Google chrome so I uninstalled chrome and reset chrome settings to the default. I moved to the US from Canada a week+ ago.
