I am not sure whether my Microsoft 365 account has been compromised

Subject: I am not sure whether my Microsoft 365 account has been compromised


Good day from Singapore,


I am not sure whether my Microsoft 365 account has been compromised. On the morning of 21 December 2020 Monday, between 9.29 AM and 10.34 AM Singapore Time, I received 16 Microsft verification code SMSes in total. In addition, I also received 2 Microsoft verification phone calls from +18553308653 (US phone number) at 9.43 AM and 10.12 AM Singapore Time. I received all of these on my NEW mobile number +65 XXXX XX80.


Based on the above information, I assumed that the hacker had already correctly guessed my password before proceeding to send me Microsoft verification code SMSes and Microsoft verification phone calls.


When I login to my Microsoft 365 account, I realized that my registered mobile mumber is still tied to my OLD mobile number +65 XXXX XX24.


This means that if the hacker is trying to access my Microsoft 365 account, Microsoft verification code SMSes and Microsoft verification phone calls should be directed to my OLD mobile number +65 XXXX XX24 instead of my NEW mobile number +65 XXXX XX80.


I took over the NEW mobile number +65 XXXX XX80 on 2nd July 2020 and my OLD mobile number +65 XXXX XX24 was subsequently terminated sometime in August 2020.


Could it be that the previous subscriber of my NEW mobile number +65 XXXX XX80 was trying to access his Microsoft 365 account? Which is why I received 16 Microsoft verification code SMSes and 2 Microsoft verification phone calls on my NEW mobile number +65 XXXX XX80? 


I have not changed my registered mobile number in my Microsoft 365 account to my NEW mobile number yet.

Subject: [24 Mar 2022 Thursday] Erectile Dysfunction and Viagra I have erectile dysfunction due to taking medications for mental illness (schizophrenia). Without Viagra, my penis is soft like jelly most of the time. There is no way I can penetrate a woman’s vagina due to erectile dysfunction. Today is the very 1st time I am taking Viagra. It allows my penis to remain hard and fully erected for 2 solid hours during sexual intercourse. Thanks Viagra! I can finally have sex! I am already 44 years old. What am I missing out in life?????? Do I still qualify to be a Japanese Adult Video (JAV) porn star actor???????? Link:  https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10158113552827735&id=646397734
