How did they steal your account?
they implemented a successful recovery on the account.

funnily enough this account forwarded all email to my 'primary' account so for the next week or so I received a copy of all emails inbound for the account I suppose they eventually noticed. they also signed in with an iphone of which I have never owned/used (outside of employer provided for work)
