I Face LinkedIn Account Hacked and Cannot Pass Authenticator Code

24

I have a LinkedIn account that I access through the mobile application, and today at around 2:50 PM I encountered a serious security issue. When I attempted to log in, the system requested an authenticator verification code. However, even after entering the correct code, I repeatedly received an error stating that the code was incorrect, preventing me from accessing my account. Shortly after this issue began, I noticed unfamiliar changes on my LinkedIn account, which strongly suggests that an unauthorized person may have gained access or taken control of it.

I also attempted to recover my account using LinkedIn’s “login help” options, but I was still unable to log in or secure my account.

I request that my LinkedIn account be immediately secured, all unknown devices and suspicious sessions be removed, and any unauthorized changes—such as modifications to my email, phone number, or password—be fully reversed. I need to regain full access to my account on my personal device as soon as possible and ensure that my personal data and professional connections are properly protected.
