BINANCE

DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS

"Hello, I have been impersonated and sim swapped, they hacked my emails, twitter, facebook, exchanges, literally everything including binance, which they stole 2 btc (daily limit) from today and will steal more if the account isn't frozen by tomorrow. They logged in and somehow disabled my google authenticator and I cannot get into my account, microsoft is working on giving me the hacked email back that is related to binance but they say it will take 3 days to escalate the ticket. In 3 days the hackers will have already taken my entire balance so I really need the binance account frozen now before they can steal more. Luckily I was able to freeze all other exchanges I had money on but please upvote guys I really need this resolved. Also if someone from Binance sees this I submitted support tickets under an alternate email but don't think that will do much and it definitely won't be answered within a day so please help me out :("
