Outlook Sent a Verification Code Without My Request — Possible Unauthorized Access

Two days ago, a verification code was sent to my Outlook account (d*************@hotmail.com)** without my knowledge or request. Shortly after, I noticed that the name on my account had been changed.

The account is now back under my control, and I have restored my name to its original form, but this incident has made me very concerned about my account’s security.

My account is free, and I do not have any paid subscriptions. I would like to know who attempted to access my account, from where, and by what method.

I also request that the security of my account be reinforced and that preventive measures be taken to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again.

Please provide me with information and support regarding this matter.
