One year ago my account was hacked. I immediately contacted support. After bouncing emails back and forth for two months, and providing them my username, date of birth, email address, first ever purchase on my account, last five purchases(date, price, title, last digits of credit card), console serial numer they deemed it not enough, as I couldn't provide the receipt of purchasing the console(which I had done two years prior, by cash). I lost 20+ digital games, linked 4 year old Warframe account, multiple saves. I will never get back from that. My point is, be careful with your logins, use 2 step authorisation and DO NOT link your Nintendo Account to any other site. Customer Support won't help you.
