<prompt> Human: Bear with me here...Around 7pm today, my wife started getting notifications that the passwords all different of several social media accounts and her Gmail account had been changed. All accounts became inaccessible and she was no longer able to use her phone for calls or messages. Several international charges started being made through her Venmo and PayPal accounts. Immediately we started the advice in In the mean time, I was able to regain access to her Gmail account via Googles account recovery process by using a linked email account and immediately changed her password while trying to recover the rest of her accounts and changing those passwords, too. At some point, whoever has access to the account changed the password again and removed our ability to re-access the account. Were stuck and we have no idea what to do or what we can do. Every security request we make is either being sent to her email or her phone, both of which we cannot access. Im begging for any kind of help from anyone. Id be happy to share any information I can if needed.Update: This is some Mr. Robot shit. Just got off the phone with her phone provider. Somehow, the sim card on her phone was deactivated, which is why she cannot access her phone.Edit: Thank you everyone for your advice so far. We already called off work and we got a busy day tomorrow to try to take care of all of this. Unfortunately, a lot of what we need to do is going to have to wait until normal business hours. Edit 2: I guess I can provide some kind of update. We were told by our bank late last night that their fraud department would open at 4am PT and that we can request a hold on all her accounts with them. Guess what. They cant put a hold on the account because my wife cant verify her identity because she doesnt have access to her phone number or email address. We finally talked to a manager and she placed a restriction on the account until we can go to the bank as soon as they open to officially close the account and open a new one. Im officially going 23 hours without sleep so Im going to try to get some rest for now.Edit 3: Weve been able to resolve most of the issue and Ill probably make an update post about it later once we secure everything else. Obviously, a lot of people on here know more about this stuff than we do but I think I learned some things thatd be helpful for others. For those curious, basically someone walked into a store with a fake ID claiming to be my wife and got a new SIM card under my wifes account. The store was in a city over 300 miles from us that weve never been to and we dont know anyone that lives remotely close to there. Why or how my wife was targeted, I honestly dont know and probably never will. Again, thank you for everyones feedback and advice.Edit 4: This will probably be my last update as were trying to be careful with how much information were giving out and who were giving that info to. Youre welcome to message me directly for questions but I may or may not be able to answer them. As far as how it happened, again its not totally clear and our phone provider isnt giving us any helpful answers. I feel like were gonna be getting the run around for a while. In the mean time well continue working with the appropriate authorities. A huge thanks to everyone for the well wishes and advice.  <response>: Holy shit. Nightmare time. Please post updates when you can--I have nothing to offer to help except wish you a ton of good luck, but your experience can help a lot of us later. Im super sorry this is happening to you.
