    Has Microsoft been hacked? People continually try to log into my Microsoft account.


    I get notices requesting one time access codes that I didn’t ask for. This is ridiculous. I take it to my security center. It shows the attempts to log into my account are coming from all over the world. So did Microsoft get hacked or not what can I do about it?
