I mistakenly gave into "accidental reporting" scam, and I can't access my account anymore.
I recently fell for the “accidental reporting” scam, and I've read literally everywhere that it takes forever to get a hacked account back.
Like the scam goes sadly, I replaced my email with an email provided by a scammer pretending to be discord support bot. I really fear that content/photos about family and friends on this account will be exposed or accessed by the wrong hands and I wish to resolve this asap.
6/11 :I submitted 3 requests, and my two initial requests provided messages and screenshots of the messages from the hacker. These two requests were submitted on 6/11
6/12: The hacker is now using my former account to message friends and has been sending the same scam. I'm still waiting on support to help me, and sadly the scam has already spread.
6/13: The discord automated message and bot marked all 3 of my requests solved, yet I havent gotten my account solved or a message of it being deleted. I have yet to have an actual person look at it.
6/14: Someone has finally responded to my request, I am currently waiting for them to retrieving my account
6/16: So after elevating my request, and getting a response from a person, they (a discord bot) marked my request solved. I dont understand why? I sent in another request which is only causing more delay. Back to square one.
6/17: They are marking all my requests solved, for no reason. I have yet to get assistance.
6/18 AHHHH I FINALLY GOT THE ACCOUNT BACK here r some tips to getting your hacked account back as i have learned now
- if your requests keep getting marked solved, bring this up with every request you make
- keep your initial requests to 2 max, it doesnt help to keep sending requests (ive sent quite a lot so trust me it doesnt do anything, it gives them more of a reason to mark your requests solved)
- make a post abt it! I made this post to get traction on getting my account back and I feel like it did help with getting my account back!
- it took me a week to get my account back, but that varies with everyone.
- be kind to the moderators, they have to individually look at everyone's account and retrieve it for them
-have screenshots! if you dont, it may be tougher explaining the situation
-be patient. I know this is a bad thing to say but it will take a while. I think i would cap the max time 3 months (from everything i've read).
I'll keep you guys updated

How long did it take for Discord to get back to you and do you think that they'll restore other accounts as well?

I gave up submitting tickets for a few days, been about 7 days as well. I decided to try again today. And like Sophie said, I mentioned that Clyde bot keeps closing the tickets. I got a reply within 15 minutes of submitting a new ticket they reverted the account changes to my discord email.
In my case I could still log in because I had 2FA enabled, but couldn't change the email back because the verification would be sent to the scammer's inbox instead.

Okay, I'm trying my best to get my main account back after I realized I fell for the "i accidentally reported you" scam on June 29 at around midnight. So far I submitted a lot of tickets, but I guess none of them worked. Hopefully this new ticket I've submitted would work.

I'm in the same situation, it's been over 5 days, and I haven't got my account. My phone number is still in the account and when I pressed forgot password, it tells me the SMS Code which the hacker enabled it, but I haven't got a text from it. Hopefully I get my account back cause this is ridiculous.
