If you're reading this, your Telegram account may already be compromised.
Important: you have limited time to recover access.
In most cases, the first 24 hours are critical — before the attacker enables two-factor authentication (2FA).
If you've already lost access and don’t want to risk it, you can обратиться к специалистам:

Check these signs:
you can’t log in
you receive login codes you didn’t request
your contacts report strange messages from you
you see unknown active sessions
If at least one applies — act immediately.
Follow these steps as soon as possible:
Try logging into your Telegram account
Go to Settings → Devices
Terminate all active sessions
Enable two-step verification (cloud password)
Set a new password
Check your linked email
Contact Telegram support
If you can’t complete these steps or access is already lost, don’t waste time — get help:

Before the attacker sets up 2FA:
you can kick them out of your account
recovery is much faster
no long support process required
After 2FA is enabled:
access becomes restricted
recovery may take days or weeks
manual verification is required
In such cases, professional help may significantly increase your chances:

Most cases are not technical hacks, but phishing attacks.
A friend sends you a message
You receive a link
You land on a fake Telegram login page
You enter your phone number
You enter the login code
Your account is taken over
In reality, users unknowingly give attackers access themselves.
“Is this you in the photo?”
“You’ve been tagged”
“Check this urgently”
These almost always lead to phishing pages.
This is the easiest case.
You can recover your account via SMS login.
recovery becomes more difficult
you’ll need Telegram support
account loss is possible
This is the most difficult scenario:
quick recovery is no longer possible
only support can help
the process may take a long time
In these cases, users often turn to specialized recovery services:

you may be removed as admin
recovering a channel is harder than recovering an account
speed is critical
delaying action
following random advice online
clicking new suspicious links
ignoring the problem
After recovery, make sure to:
enable two-factor authentication
add a recovery email
never enter codes outside the official app
always verify website URLs
avoid suspicious links
You should consider help if:
more than 24 hours have passed
2FA has been enabled
you lost access to your phone number
your channel was stolen
In these situations, self-recovery is often ineffective.
