Here's a parable, from personal experience [0].
TL;DR: my mobile phone number (not the phone itself) was hacked, then my Twitter account. The attacker changed my Twitter handle from @simon to @simonsw9kww.
I eventually recovered my @simon twitter account, after several MONTHS and several emails and calls to twitter support and friends working at Twitter.

Is this enough for you?
