[Resolved] Can't log in, can't cancel account.


Recommended Posts

My spamcop.net account is nothing but spam now and I get the message that my account has been hacked. I've tried to log in to the account, but I'm locked out. I tried resetting my password, which sends a new password to a backup email account, but apparently the hackers can change the reset password before I even use it, because I can't log in with that either.  How do I close my account? Is there anyone minding this store?

Hey freewheeling, 

Also, contact SpamCop Admin direct:

go to: [   https://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=contactform&reason=Feedback&details=Can't+log+in%2C+can't+cancel+account  ]

Fill out online form: 

[Handle] not essential,

[Email address] essential. (provide SCA with an email address you can log in too so SCA can communicate with you).

[pertinent details] essential >> 

Spamcop.net account has been hacked.
Spamcop.net account unable to log in.
Desired outcome: Reset account, cancel account.... etc. (Whatever would be the best possible solution for you)

SCA are very responsive.

I'm assuming the [backup email account] is not a SpamCop acc but something like Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook? Does this account have a separate "recovery" account specified?

If there's any way of recovering this [backup email account] , then securing it with 2 factor authentication, e.g. Ph#, Pin #, so that, moving forward, whether you continue to use SC or not, you have use of your mail accounts without issue.

Cheers!

On a side note, I've never had a spamcop.net email account, but have seen examples of "your account has been hacked" messages arriving at a small number of my email addresses. Don't shy away from reporting them - the ones I've seen have always been traced back to somewhere other than the server hosting the supposedly hacked account.
