Shopify Account Hacked and I can't Log in

Hello,

I have quite a difficult situation. This morning I randomly received two texts from a 5 digit number saying “Enter ###### as your Shopify authentication code.” I did not request these codes. I go to my Shopify app and I have been logged out. I go to log in and my saved password is incorrect. I have not received any e-mails saying the password was reset. I request to change the password and successfully do so. However, two-factor authentication is no longer turned on for either of the phone numbers we use. The passkey function I usually use doesn’t work. The only options are to enter a 12 digit recovery code or use an authentication app. We have never set up an authentication app. The only set of 12 digit recovery codes I can find are from 2022 and none of them worked. Now, I am stuck and cannot login at all. I am extremely concerned as this is our primary source of income and our family business. As you all know, Shopify does not have a phone number to call and I can’t seem to find any actual help for my specific case. I hope someone here can help. Thank you.

You would have to reach out to Shopify’s support team directly for help with this.

Start a chat using the widget on the right-hand side of the page, and say “I want to talk to a real person” … then follow the prompts to talk with a support agent.

Hello,

I did so and it says to “Click select a store to connect with a support advisor.” Where do I click “select a store”?? The replies in bold are not links.

Hi

THIS JUST HAPPENED TO ME TOO! I kept getting pop up notifications in my email. First they created a two step authentication (that I do not have access to) and then tried to change my email to seb563zbrown@outlook.com I am very concerned about this and that there are no live people to get into contact with for these security purposes. I created a new account (that I am using to respond here) so that I can get in touch with someone who can help me.
