Finally got this done!
September 12, 2024

The 4 stars were for the agent that assisted me. Alyssa, I would like to thank you again on behalf of my family. Your assistance today is the first step to getting me and my family better taken care of. (The time I had to wait was somewhat lengthy but I am sure that is just the way it is.)

My ID.me Account was Hacked
September 12, 2024

When verifying my identity for my state unemployment benefits through the ID.me website I discovered that the email address that was displayed was not mine. I sent in my information and described the issue that I was having trouble with my verification process. I submitted everything to ID.me and was sent a ticket number for reference that ID.me was processing and investigating my concerns regarding my account being hacked.

IDme
September 11, 2024

Frustrating at times, but I think I was successful in setting up my new account. The system would not allow me to change my email address which was hacked in Oct 2021.
I somehow, following numerous attempts, was able to add my new email address as a secondary email address.

Abbreviations aren't for everyone. ID.me is a useful tool once you understand what it is used for. It took me 3 calls to social security to become unconfused. Then I encountered ID.me on the state level applying for medicaid. Save yourself some frustration and ask questions before using this tool. It will save time and frustration.
