Like the title says, I’ve got yesterday an email with a code to access my Microsoft account and that made me suspicious because I wasn’t trying to login to my account. When I looked at the login attempts I saw that someone else was trying to access my account, I changed my password, activated TFA. Thinking of going through and buying a physical key like yubico to further secure my account. Any tips are appreciated.

    Same here, I have been in the same situation for years. Looks like if you email appears in a data breach every hacker in the world tries to get access to your email. Just never reuse your email password and set 2FA. That’s more than enough to prevent unauthorized access and don’t lose sleep over it.
