Apex account stolen

I haven't played Apex for a few months, but recently I was going to play Apex and found that I couldn't log in, so I changed my password and logged in again, and then I found that my Apex account had become level one and my game records disappeared

    Hi there, 

    If you believe your account has been compromised, please follow the steps in this article to re-secure your account: What to do if your EA Account has been hacked.

    Now, if the account is back to level 1, there could be a couple of things that caused it. 
    1 - The account that was compromised now has a different email address, and you're logged in to a different account. 
    2 - The platform you used to play the game has been unlinked from your EA account causing it to lose the progress
    3 - If you haven't played since April 2nd, you might be logged into the correct account, and we can try to help recover its progress.

    Let me know if you still need any further assistance,

    @Jiongjionghe please check if you have any pop-up or blockers running in your browser and temporarily disable them for the EA Help website.
  • I asked for help online, and netizens told me that my email address [edit: email address removed] does not support EA's customer service. I want to change my email address now, but when I try to change it, it tells me that I cannot change it. Can you help me change it?
