Hi Jhona, unfortunately we don't have the power to recover Google accounts but maybe we can find you a better contact form to reach them at. Google is very strict about what it needs to know before letting you recover a account. Even I have lost a Google account and tried every single way I knew how to recover it. Sometimes you lose a Google account no matter what you do. I'm really sorry about that since you could have photos & many other important things in there.

I think the best method is to attach a secondary email to Google for recovery. I hope they still allow that. Then you can send a password reset there.

This was a very good detailed guide but was last updated in 2021: https://gmailaccountrecovery.blogspot.com/

Can I ask you how you found us to ask for help with your Google account recovery? We have noticed recently a lot of people coming here asking many questions about Google accounts and Google account recovery but we only have the power to help with Mozilla made products (Firefox, Firefox for Android/iOS, Focus, Thunderbird) and accounts on Mozilla.org.

Did you do a Google search for Google account recovery and this website was the first result? Any answers you give about that would be a huge help. Thank you!
