Go to the account login page at yahoo.com. You'll need to contact the Yahoo! Security Team directly by selecting "My account may have been compromised" under the "I can't access my account" option when signing in since your security question wasn't working. The hacker probably changed your settings. You'll need to enter your cellphone number and a security code will be messaged to you that will allow you to reset your password and gain access to your account once again.


Feel free to resubmit the question if you didn't find it useful.
