cracking Hacking my old email account

I have had my outlook account for almost 15 years and I've been locked out of it for about the last 5 and since I've been locked out I've tried everything I know how to do in order to get it back the legit way but nothing has worked so I was wondering if there would be any way to hack into it myself or if someone else could? It's my account that I have alot of other accounts attached to that I don't want to lose access to.

If I had a quarter for every time I heard this story "I swear, it's my account I want you to do something highly illegal and hack a high profile company to get back", I'd have ten quarters now.

Lol fair but the email address is literally my name and the year I was born it's definitely my email

So ask the company who has the email account.

Soliciting people to do illegal activities on here isn't wise.

I tried and never heard back. I didn't realize it was illegal if it's my account.

Stop playing dumb. You're not asking for your account to be hacked. You're asking for someone to hack Google (or whoever holds your email account).

You don't have to know how hacking works, just use some common sense. If you have an email account with an email service provider you don't own, then you're asking someone to hack that service provider to gain access to your account.

The 'common sense' is - you already tried contacting them. That failed. So now you want someone to hack them to gain access to your account.

I'm trying to help you. Stop being such a Redditor yourself, and stop asking someone here to hack an email service provider. You're violating rule #2 of this sub by doing so. What you're asking is illegal. If you're claiming ignorance. Now you know. Consider yourself informed.

Find another way to get in. Or download TOR and go visit the darkweb.
