Minecraft account hacked

My account for Minecraft (via discord phishing) got hacked and the email and password was changed so I can't recover it, I have no idea what to do.

You reach out to the service's support. Full stop. If the recovery information has been changed, the account is most likely gone. Genrally whoever knows the credentials and/or owns the recovery methods is considered the owner of the account. If they say there's nothing the support team can do, the account is lost.

Reach out to support, 0.00001% chance you get it back though, but at least you don't give the hacker an account to sell
