Need Urgent Help: Reddit Account hacked and attempts to scam

Hi, So this is my secondary account. My primary account has gotten compromised. Long story short, my personal email was recently hacked (recovered and secured now), and they had gotten access to my reddit (along with multiple other platforms). I've managed to secure everything except reddit. Despite me changing my password, setting 2FA and also logging out all devices, they still somehow have access to my account. They've been messaging multiple people mentioning they are selling certain things. This person had messaged through my own account telling me that they had bought this account off someone else without knowing it was hacked. Idiotic me believed this story and now i realize he is using my account to scam people. He has messaged multiple people but I'm not sure if he is successful in scamming. I have requested reddit support to help but they have not responded after a week. My last resort is to get help from here. I do not know what to do. I do not wish to delete the account. Hopefully theres a way to kick this imposter out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. submitted by /u/LepreNx [link] [comments]
