My Google account has been hacked... lost control of everything, including my YouTube channel

Just keep at it and you'll get the channel back, easier said than done but don't stress too much. I would just follow the form that you got, even if you have to login as some other google account to access/fill it out

2026-02-01 03:16:46 +0000 UTCI cant help. Wish I could. What a crappy week bro. I would say to put some stuff on twitter if you have a decent following, if you can get a person on your case it will surely speed things up.

2026-02-01 00:42:26 +0000 UTCJust some seriously awful news to see, take however long you need to get things right as far as I'm concerned, no cares about content till you're set back up right. Here's to hoping Google gets their shit together to straighten it out. Just know this whole group of strangers will weather the storm with ya! Definitely wishing you the best and hoping the rest of your stuff is secure enough to keep more safe.

2026-01-31 18:02:33 +0000 UTCThis is exactly what happened to me. Report, keep asking. Make another account, report your channel and explain who you are. It is MADDENING but there is proof, obviously, that your channel is your channel

2026-01-31 18:02:18 +0000 UTCWtf? This world can be a π© hole. Some are abandoning Google and using Duck Duck Go. If possible, reach out to Legal Eagle and join or be a partner on Nebula as your content base, then transfer to YouTube. That is what Legal Eagle does with their content. Maybe do some videos together.

2026-01-31 15:39:39 +0000 UTCAs somebody in one of the thread said, i would try to make a new google account just for filling out the recovery, and do it from a known clean device, and a private/incognito window, as a first thing
