Hello! I understand that your Gmail account was hacked and you are unable to access it. That can definitely disrupt your access to other services, including Zoosk if it’s connected to that Gmail. To help you regain control, let's focus first on recovering your Gmail account, since access to that is key.
Here’s a step-by-step process to recover your hacked Gmail account on your iPhone (iOS 18.7):
1. Go to Google’s Account Recovery page: Open your Safari browser and go to g.co/recover.
2. Enter your Gmail address: Type in the hacked Gmail address and tap “Next.”
3. Follow the prompts: Google will ask you questions to verify your identity, such as last password you remember, recovery phone number or email, or confirmation codes sent to those devices. Try to answer as accurately as possible.
4. Use your trusted device: If possible, complete this process from a device and location where you frequently signed in to this Gmail account. This increases your chances of successfully recovering it.
5. Set a new strong password: Once you regain access, immediately set a new, strong password you haven’t used before.
6. Review account activity: Check recent activity and security settings, remove suspicious devices or linked apps, and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security.
After restoring access to your Gmail, if your Zoosk account was linked and affected, you can reset your Zoosk password by:
- Opening the Zoosk app. - Tapping your profile icon (bottom right). - Going to Account settings. - Selecting password change and entering a new password.
If you notice your Zoosk account email or password was changed and you cannot get in, you might need to contact Zoosk support directly with proof of identity to get your account back13.
Would you like me to guide you through the Gmail recovery steps in more detail? Or assist you with Zoosk specifically?
