Multiple unsuccessful login attempts on hotmail

[T-g260]

Hello. I have an old email (@hotmail) which keeps showing me unsuccessful login attempts from different places within the United States and even other countries. I have activated the two-factor authentication, the authentication app from Microsoft, and anything I could do to prevent it from being hacked. But it seems like the person is trying a brute force attack and they’re not stopping. It’s been going on for over a month now. Is there anything else I can do besides deleting the account? I thought about deleting it, but it takes 30/60 days to actually delete the account and I am afraid it won’t work because of this person trying to get in every day. Thanks in advance.

You can add a new alias to the account and set it as primary. Do not Remove the current address - you will never get it back.

Then at the bottom of the dialog, click the link to change sign in preferences. Uncheck the account so it can't be used to sign in. You need ot use the new alias (or other aliases on the account) to sign in.
