@EldaraSimons Generally account management issues such as hacked accounts or forgotten security questions must be dealt with over the phone for security purposes. You will need to open a hacked account ticket, which you can start doing here

 

Remember to change your country on the contact page by using the menu in the upper left corner. If your country isn't an option, we suggest selecting the UK. If your country isn't an option or doesn't offer phone support (keep in mind the availability of phone support is based on the time/day. If it's Sunday or outside certain hours, which vary by country, it won't be an option), you can use a VOIP program such as Skype to call the UK (the number is +44 203 0141818 and it's available from 8AM-9PM GMT, Monday through Saturday, remember to account for the time difference). 

If you are in North America, you can't call EA directly, there is a call back feature which requires you to provide a phone number within North America. If you don't have one, see above about contacting the UK using VOIP.

You will need to provide proof that you are the owner of the account (a product key or invoice number for one of your games on Origin should do), it's a good idea to have this handy before making contact.

 

Once you regain full control of your account, I highly suggest you start using Login Verification to help prevent this from happening in the future.

 

Good luck Standard smile
