…right we'll use this very website. I recommend you download an Authenticator app onto your phone. Microsoft or Google have them. There’s others out there but those are easy because you almost certainly have one of those accounts already
In your account setting under security and password or something along those lines you’ll see this. 2 step is the same as 2FA click it and you’ll get:
Stick ya password in and you’ll get:
Choose one of them. If you’re happy with email use that (probably not email if your Hotmail keeps getting hacked
) or the Authenticator app you downloaded. If you choose the app you get:
If you’re doing this on the computer you can use the QR code. open the app, there will be a symbol that looks like this:
Click it and you’ll can scan the code with your phone OR if you’re doing all this on your phone like I am, copy and paste the long code underneath the QR code into the “secret key” box on the app. The. You get:
Save the account in this case GOT, it will generate a code which lasts for 30seconds, quickly copy and paste it and stick it in the box asking for your one time code on GOT. That verifies that you are using the app and from now on anyone logging in will need a secret code from an app on your phone that only lasts 30 seconds. Pretty hard to beat that.
Finally GOT will give you this:
This really long code is a back up. Even if someone manages to hack all that which is nearly impossible, this code will allow you to just get your account back no dramas, generally you’re meant to save it somewhere safe and ffs don’t share it with anyone.
Most accounts (google, facebook, hotmail etc.) work in a similar way. Like I said this won’t help you with what’s happened with the messages sent to your missus but if you do all this on your important accounts it makes it a LOT harder for hackers to get at you in the future and cause you more dramas.

Change all your passwords from efc123 just to be safe @matty1878
Genuinely hope you get to the bottom of it @matty1878 and everything gets sorted 
I'm useless with technology, so I'm unable to offer any meaningful advice.
Except of course the obvious things like turning it off for 10 seconds then back on, or putting your phone in rice/sawdust overnight

Oh yeah I've got the lot here, everythings encrypted and I use a yubikey for everything, but this will probably work for Matty and any scally trying to hack him will just go for someone easier

thankyou but
all what you’ve typed is chinese to me mate.
Change your passwords regularly with strong ones mate, it’s easier that way
Just make sure you remember them
Can we all chip in and get matty some kind of internet safety awareness course for Christmas?
Feel like he’s going to be the victim in one of those stories you hear of where people transfer all their life savings to some stranger in Kenya.
