    HI,

    I had my Yahoo Account recently.

    Suddenly some one hacked my password and i got the message of password changed and after some time the message of my Termination of Account.
    Now how can i reactivate my yahoo account by suitable contacts with Yahoo Administration.

    Sucks that that happened, man, but definitely bring it up with Yahoo! Support instead of this forum! We can't help you, but they definitely can!

    How can u loose you yahoo account so easily.. ?
    Better be more careful in choosing a password in future and clicking links that claim to be from yahoo.

    It happened with me too for my gmail http://smallwebsitehost.com/my-gmail-account-hijacked/other/. I am skeptical you will get any result contacting them. I hate those big companies. They will just ignore us, and we couldn't do anything. They are just too big, no time for small people. I have email them several time, and they did not gave any good solution. Yahoo and gmail have their own weekness. I don't know whether they have fix it or not. Suggestion: don't use free email.

    I think Yahoo support will not help anybody if you are using Free Account. You can find this question in their FAQ. They have strictly said, "Yahoo support will not help you in matter of resetting your password".

    To change password you must have to give answer for security questions.

    2 years back same thing happened with me. But unfortunately hacker changed my Security questions too. :|

    It is really sad that some people derive pleasure by putting other people in trouble....:mad:

    Since the account is long deleted, I do not think Yahoo would be of any help, especially since it is a free service. I would suggest OP to just forget and move on...and take extra precaution in future.

    I dont think that you can register again that email address in this short time.
    It still need time for that account to be used again.
    Just try to contact their mail support.

    Use Gmail !! haha

    I dont think you will be able to get back the account. Check if your computer has any keyloggers installed.

    You might be able to get the account back, but you're main focus should be trying to protect the security of what was contained in your email box. Change passwords on all accounts that you used that email address for.

    Also, just go to the login page of yahoo and click on the help button .. should be easy to find :)

    Sorry friend, but it is hard to get it back. You should ask a support from yahoo or make a new one.
