Very interesting. Could tell how long did it take, how was the process of recovering your account?
I'm in one of those months that I panic and wonder if I should disabled advanced protection.
- horsawlarway 3y agoThis was not for a personal account. It was recovery of a business account that was locked for session hijacking (intentional and done as part of developing a potential feature, but session hijacking none-the-less). At the time (~2013) it triggered a complete lockout and manual verification of billing identity (notarized ID) to get back in. They don't do it for personal accounts, as far as I know. Honestly, I'm not sure the Google of today would do it for a business account.
