Not accessing OneDrive files

I bought a fake account with 2 TB of space, and after a while they closed it without me being able to access my files in OneDrive
Question: How do I deal with this problem?
Is it possible to recover my files because they are very important?

OneDrive for Business
Standalone
storage

    mhftech Contact police but your chances are slim. Also prepare for identity theft or other consequences of data in those files. Lock down accounts, change passwords etc

      But the account name and password are in use, and I use it to correspond with you only. The problem is accessing my files on OneDrive.
      Question: How do I reach the company or organization that has access to my files?

        it sounds cyber criminals have your account and password too (assuming you aren't the crooks). Don't waste time on forums when a cyber crime is in progress, go to police. Contact Microsoft in your country as well.
