I forgot to include this in my original post. I use the Microsoft authenticator application to authenticate my account. My mistake was also including my mobile number as an alternative way to authenticate my account. I don’t know if I was aware of this or if Microsoft prompted me for my phone number at one time and I did not think through all the ramifications. |

The threat model is increasing for personal use as solely SMS based account recovery is becoming more widespread. The increase in crypto usage is another accelerant.
Good luck solving this unfortunate incident.
