2 
3Losing access — to email, socials, or a bank login — is high-stress, and that's exactly when people fall for fake "account recovery" scammers.

7- **The official recovery route** — the real recovery flow for that provider/account type (not a third party)
8- **Proof to prepare** — the identity/ownership evidence their process asks for (recovery contacts, past passwords, device, ID)
9- **A recovery-order plan** — do email first (it's the reset hub for everything else), then dependent accounts
10- **The re-secure checklist** — change passwords, reset 2FA, revoke unknown sessions/devices, check forwarding/rules
11- **Scam warnings** — the fake-support and paid-recovery traps that prey on locked-out users

18- **What you still have** — recovery email/phone, backup codes, a trusted device, old passwords
19- **Signs of compromise** — changed recovery info, unknown logins, missing 2FA
20- **Linked accounts** — what else uses this email to log in or reset
