The Signs Your Snapchat Account May Be Hacked 

Whenever you observe any of these suspicious behaviors on your Snapchat account, your account has likely been compromised or hacked:

• Your account is being used to send spam.
• A message will appear on your screen informing you that someone has logged into your account from another location, IP address, or device.
• The app constantly requires you to re-login every time you use it.
• Your contact list has been expanded without your permission, with new contacts added.
• Your Snapchat account’s mobile number or email address has been changed without your consent.

If you experience these behaviors, you should change your password as soon as possible to avoid further problems.

What To Do If Your Snapchat Account Has Been Hacked?

If you’re like most people, Snapchat is one of your favorite social media apps. It’s a great way to stay in touch with friends and family and also a lot of fun. But what do you do if your Snapchat account has been hacked?

There are a few methods you can do to try to get your account back, but it’s essential to act quickly.

Method #1: Update Password if Email or Phone Number Have Not Changed

You can take several steps to regain access to your account. If you suspect your account has been hacked, you should update your password first.

Restoring your account access is possible if your email address or phone number hasn’t changed:

1. Go to the Snapchat login page and enter your username and password.
2. If you can log in, change your password immediately. If you cannot log in, click the “Forgot your password?” link.
3. Choose the method to recover your password: “Via Phone” or “Via Email.”

If you chose the email method, continue like that:

1. Enter your email and tap the “Submit” button.
2. Check your emails for a message from Team Snapchat.
3. Tap the link in the email.
4. Enter your new password twice.
5. Tap the “Save” button.

If you chose the phone number method, continue like that:

1. Enter your phone number and tap the “Continue” button.
2. Snapchat will send you a text message with the recovery code.
3. Enter the code in the Snapchat app. It gets inserted automatically on most new devices.
4. Enter your new password twice.
5. Tap the “Save” button

Method #2: Contact Snapchat Support

It is impossible to retrieve the password using the “Forgot My Password” on the login screen if the hacker has changed the email address and the phone number.

Snapchat support may be able to help you regain access to your account and reset your password.

To contact Snapchat Support, please follow these steps:

1. On your mobile device or web browser, visit Snapchat’s Support Page.
2. Find and tap the “Contact Us” tab.
3. Click on “I think my account has been compromised.”
4. Fill in the form; the more information you provide, the better.
5. Tap the “Save” button at the bottom.

Be sure to include as much information as possible, such as your username, when you think your account was hacked, and what you think may have happened.

Tips On How To Keep Your Snapchat Account Safe

You can keep your account safe by following these guidelines:

• Snapchat will never ask for your password from you. Never share your password with anyone.
• Don’t include personal information in your passwords, such as your name, username, phone number, or birthday. Make your password a mix of numbers, symbols, and capitals.
• In Snapchat settings, make sure your email address and mobile number are correct.
• With two-factor authentication, your Snapchat account will be more secure.
• Any safety concerns, like harassment or bullying, can always be reported on Snapchat.
• Only add friends you know in real life or accept friend requests from them on Snapchat.
