My mail id is hacked what should I do. Yes my gmail id is compromised. And I don’t know the person who is doing all this. Gmail is doing is good job but when we loose our mail id there are not easy chances to get it back as we have to send them some information which is valid and in some cases we forget if the account is too old. What are your experiences.

If you really want to get your account back, the best way to do is to contact Gmail support so that they can assist you in retrieving your Gmail account. If you have your personal information such as bank account,paypal account, etc.. it is better if your report the incident as soon as possible. But if the account is not that important or what's inside it is not, then I guess just let that hacker get away with your I.D . just as long as he won't steal your identity and important information. Just open a new account again. :) Best of luck

Change your password, as I posted a similar discussion this morning. I done the same thing, someone hacked into my hotmail account. I have to change my password. Hopefully it will work too.
