Okay, bit of a weird situation… but I was wondering if anyone might have some suggestions for me.

Recently, I went to create a new email after graduation, and I decided to go simple: first and last name only. I have a very rare name, both first and last, and this should have been no problem. Only, the email was taken. At first I thought maybe I had already made it and simply forgotten, so I tried to recover the passcode. When doing so, I realized that the last few digits of the phone number connected to the account match my dead dad’s phone.

Now I have reason to believe that he created this email with my name. Only, I have no clue why and it’s driving me crazy. I tried to get in, but unfortunately his number has already been reassigned so I can’t use his phone to retrieve the code, and there’s no recovery email listed.

I was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar. I really want in. Not just because I’m dying of curiosity, but also because the email I did make includes my middle initial… but everyone keeps missing that character completely and several of my emails are being sent to this account. I loath to think of all the missed connections and job interviews. Any assistance would be great.
