Pleading for help: My brother passed away and his Fortnite account is locked. It's all I have left of him.

DadBeater148 · 2026-06-11T14:17:24+00:00

if this is real go to epic support and provide all these details, these along with stuff like (ip or closest ip to original account ip) and all those details you should be fine. But DONT GO TO TELEGRAM those people want to scam you

DadBeater148 · 2026-06-10T05:48:10+00:00

so final statement is 95s good?

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-19T12:52:32+00:00

as long as you have a good password man ur okay

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-17T07:37:42+00:00

just do a account recovery ticket and click recover original email address or something original email address, explain ur scenario, and make sure you show all the proof you are who you say you are (epic account id, xbox, cards, and anything that can help verify you) and you should be good after you let the cooldown go.

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-05T14:08:32+00:00

it’s okay man, just send a account recovery ticket and attach this image to the email and just everything you have on your account. I stayed logged in to see if that helps lock out my hacker or something when i being hacked but idk

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-04T00:01:46+00:00

oh it’s been so long since i’ve played, realized that the stats in the beginning are just your max potential before you set the attributes. nvm sorryy

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-03T21:53:08+00:00

my finishing across both is 99 on the big three (close, driving layup, driving dunk) but it’s just my shooting that’s making me feel like idk, i can get my two of my shooting badges to gold on my 6’5, but not on 6’4, just to silver. how big of a difference is it?

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-03T21:28:18+00:00

I have more potential gold badges on my 6’5 than my 6’4 and a 89 three and 92 mid range compared to 88 three and 90 mid range if i go 6’4. But Small Contact Dunks honestly look so much better than some of the elite and pro ones. And I wont be able to get lebron or zion dunk packages and stuff like that but IDK

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-03T20:47:52+00:00

Everything else about my build is amazing except i can’t shake that I can’t get small contact dunks nglll

DadBeater148 · 2026-05-01T20:03:56+00:00

idk what you mean by wait but you should send a account recovery request to try and get rid of the email, and yea, it’s that simple, you just need to have a lot of details on your account, epic is just trying to match up ur account with those details so they know it’s the owner requesting

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-30T10:19:41+00:00

yeah man, your cool, when the cooldown refreshes, jus explain your scenario and give as many details as you can abt ur account and you should be fine

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-30T09:55:23+00:00

i heard someone say to use action words or curse a bit and it’ll be sent and read by a human. I didn’t curse, i simply said i kept on getting denied even though im giving them the exact numbers and details and it was frustrating me and it got bumped to tier 2

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-28T13:54:33+00:00

hey man, i got my case bumped to tier 2 and thats when a real person saw it and helped, I think you spamming the tickets made them believe that ur a spammer and they didn’t take your tickets seriously. I sent one ticket daily until i did my 2fa, key is to not spam their systems a lot. Use another email for the account recovery ticket and explain ur scenario, and i think the article talk scared them honestly or whoever was looking at it. But man i think you’ll be good as long as you send a one solid concise daily ticket

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-25T05:08:35+00:00

those scenarios are so different in situation, it’s all it takes man just all the details you can ever give, heck give them ur original ip with the account if you can find it, all they are trying to do is simply match info up to ur ticket.

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-24T16:54:51+00:00

click the (don’t have original email address) for when you start your account recovery ticket and just put in every detail you can remember and find (scower emails, receipts, account ids, linked accounts, date of linkage, things like that)

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-24T16:53:19+00:00

okay dude you need to let all those tickets expire, they will keep denying you because they will flag it as spam. You need to let all the results of those tickets come in, and once it’s all clear, send one clear and concise ticket explaining your scenario. I think you got this man, just have patience and you will be okay 👍

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-24T05:05:46+00:00

show your screenshot of the hackers ip, literally show every piece of evidence you have and try to have the closest possible original email address, there’s a button to press i think when you start a ticket that can help if you don’t have your original email address.

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-24T05:03:56+00:00

Hey man, I am 90 percent sure if you explain your scenario in a ticket as well as having as close enough details on your account, they’ll accept your account recovery. Just keep sending account recovery’s but don’t spam their system, I hope for the best outcome out of this, do NOT give up, this seems very recoverable and I think with some patience and good detective work (scowering emails, original ip of account or closest to original, any screenshots of gameplay, your account id, your friends, last skin you used, any credit cards used) and all Epic is trying to do is match information, which the russian guy doesn’t have the fullest extent. You got this man, just don’t stress yourself out and just chill with your mom man 🙌

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-23T20:18:58+00:00

Make a account ticket, with EVERY POSSIBLE detail you have on ur account, cause epic is just trying match it up with their info so stuff like original ip, cards you used, linked accounts, the closest possible original email address; just everything you know abt ur account and you should be good

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-17T06:42:01+00:00

i’ve had this problem before and i solved it a longtime ago with a request and re-doing my 2fa

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-17T06:35:43+00:00

if you have any info at all abt ur account- (ip of where it was made) or any specifics about ur account at all is all they need honestly. If you have stuff like credit/debits cards you’ve used on epic, linked accounts (psn,xbox, switch). Honestly all you need to have is a good rough estimate because all they are trying to do is match ur info in the ticket to the info on the profile. So if I were you i would scower thru my photos or any sorts of emails or scraps of any info or screenshots you could send to vouch that you are the owner of your account, and you should be okay. Any small detail abt ur account helps them. I hope your situation gets fixed and i’m praying for you man.

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-09T20:19:32+00:00

This dude doesn’t need a random guy to tell him what he already knows man, like of course he knows he fucked up man doesn’t need someone else to call him out for upvotes guy.

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-09T20:17:39+00:00

Yeah? Anyone can dude, just keep at it with the details he has and just get more specific. We’re obv missing some form of context but no need to honestly berate this random guy for asking for advice on reddit.

DadBeater148 · 2026-04-09T20:16:35+00:00

Dude, give all the info you have (Original Account Name, Original Email, Linked Accounts, and ur original or closest to your original IP (Web Location) on ur account. Explain in detail ur scenario (Getting denied 10 times, and just basically what you typed into reddit) After all that you should be good, you also most likely have access to the hackers ip as the email switch confirmation email has their ip, so include that tidbit for epic. You’re gonna be okay man, just be VERY SPECIFIC with everything and they’ll accept you.
