Your question seems to be about having problems logging in with your password.

If you have simply forgotten your password, you can find that information here in our FAQ[1].

1: https://www.reddit.com/r/help/wiki/faq#wiki_i_forgot_my_password.2C_but_never_registered_an_e-mail_account._can_i_still_reset_my_password.3F

If you think your account has been hijacked, please refer to this thread: "Is your Reddit password invalid? Has your verified email address changed? Your Reddit account might have been hijacked![2]"

2: https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/49x3ik/is_your_reddit_password_invalid_has_your_verified/

If you are being told that the password on a brand-new account is invalid, you need to contact the Reddit admins.

For all other questions regarding passwords and logging in, contact the Reddit admins by emailing contact@reddit.com, via this support request form[3], or using this old modmail link[4].

If your question is not about resetting your password, please wait for a human helper to come along and help you. **This post has NOT been removed.**

If you dont have access to the email attached to the account there may be nothing that can be done. See more info here: https://reddit.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360045768792-I-need-help-with-a-hacked-or-compromised-account

Ugh, this just happened to me. But I was able to change my password and delete the posts. Hope I'm not blocked now.
