  If your email account gets hacked and you have cryptocurrencies stored in it, don't panic! The first step is to change your email account password immediately. Make sure to choose a strong password that is not easily guessable. Consider using a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for your email account to provide an extra layer of security. This will require you to enter a verification code sent to your phone when logging in. Check your email account settings for any suspicious activity, such as unfamiliar forwarding rules or unauthorized access. It's also important to contact your cryptocurrency exchange or wallet provider to inform them about the situation. They can guide you on securing your digital assets and may suggest additional security measures to protect your funds.
