But I didn't change my account. Now when I try to log in to any Playstation store or whatever it says my email address has no account associated with it.
What do I do?

So we need to sticky this. You were hacked and you didn't have 2 factor auth activated. Thread can be closed.
Call Sony support man. Only thing you can do. Everyone else here will give you the same replies.Thread can be closed? That's it? I'm fucked and lost my account?
Edit: Sorry I'm just frustrated.

We get these every single day. Like twice or more. It should be standard at this point to have 2FA just in case and a unique password for Psn.Damn, some shitty replies to a dude who just had his account compromised.
we really need an "Enable 2 factor auth NOW" sticky thread.

https://www.playstation.com/en-us/account-security/2-step-verification/Can someone shed a bit more light on the 2FA topic for Sony? I just bought a pro last month and have PS Plus so I'm new to all of this. Is this something I need to activate somewhere?
I feel like i hear about hacked PSN accounts a lot lately......

We need another "Sony please fix your security" sticky thread too.
I feel like sony should do more to let people know about 2fa. We can all lecture people about how they should know if they're on gaf but that doesn't do much for people who aren't.
It's just stupid how easy it is for people to get hacked. That shit shouldn't happen, even without 2FA lol.
lol they did. There was a notification on every PS4 when it launched. That's how I knew it launched. I bet a lot people just ignored it.
They also put it all over social media.
No matter how many of these threads we have, you still have people like OP not bothering to protect their account with two factor authorization.
I just don't get it.

They fixed it with 2fa though? The only thing is that it's just sms verification, which can be a problem if you don't have a cell, or have to pay for incoming texts.

Looks like Sony didn't learned from the 2011 fiasco, people are hacked every day
Stop blaming Sony for people reusing their compromised passwords.
No they didn't. Unless they make it mandatory it's not an excuse and it's dumb to put the blame on the user everytime. It's not like 2 threads in a year this shit happen every week on here. That's only people we know on GAF think of the situation for others.

I know one reason alot of people still do not have 2 factor on is because it is still set up to just send a text instead of it being a phone call or email that they send. Many would use it if they just had the option for the phone call.
