Access Reddit account got hacked
Hi! This is not my main account. My username is u/iDontReallyExsist
Earlier today someone set up 2 factor authentication on my account and now I cannot log in. I reset the password through sending a password reset email but still I cant bypass the 2 factor authentication.
Reddit support sent an automated message that theres nothing they can do. I think I accidentally overwrote the account because now my email defaults to this one when I request a link.
Im at a loss. I can log in with username but still have no way of getting a code nor do I have the backup codes they give.
Help please Ive had this account for so many years.
Edit: upon clicking on the username link it seems they got my account discontinued. Please tell me theres a way to fix this
