Does anyone know how to get a hold of Google if your gmail account has been hacked? 4951

One does not simply get a hold of Google. Google gets a hold of you.
 
Google already knows. This is part of their plan. This is how Skynet begins. 4951

Usually your main recourse is to set up a new email account either with Google or other provider and send out some kind of notice to all you contacts to delete your old email address and not respond to any future messages from it. Not sure what else you can really do. 4951

If you setup your account correctly you should have an alternate email account that you can use to recover control of the gmail accounts seriously, google it 4951

I had my Hotmail hacked a yr or so, since it was a free account like I'm assuming your gmail is, they do not offer CS. I just started a new account, like Chris stated above, it's all you can do. Gmail is the same as Hotmail, except.....I do not like Gmail because if you reply to an email, it takes that email out of your email and puts it in sent, Hotmail doesn't do that. Kinda got used to it now but confused the heck out of me at first. 4951

@cador: it is definitely not the only option. There are a few things you can do. I googled "how to r cover a gmail account that has been hacked" and voila 0.04 seconds later all the options were there. Google has an online form you can full out. That Israel just one option. When you set up gmail it lets you manage the r vocero settings.

Good deal, guess I was confused about "hacked", as when I was hacked, I could still access my email acc't, the hackers were just constantly sending my contacts goofy sales emails. There was really no choice for me but to set up a new email and cancel that one if I wanted that to stop. I tried the change password deal ect. everybody continued getting the emails. 4951
