Need Google and Gmail help!

[Hane]

Hey, all my techy FJers! I have been shut out of my Gmail, Google, and YouTube accounts after having forgotten my password and trying to reset it.

I have meticulously followed Google’s directions, but they trap me in an unending loop of repetitious steps that send me in circles. I have tried using my non-Gmail email account to try to receive the promised verification code, but I haven’t received one. (Yes, I checked my spam and trash folders.)

WTF do I do now?

You may have been hacked - the reset could be going to someone else’s email. Contact Google and follow the instructions for a hacked account.
