Step 2: A series of security questions will be asked to confirm it’s you trying to access your account, and then you’ll receive an email from Google. Check your spam or bulk mail folder for the email or search for “noreply@google.com.” In case you don’t receive an email after a few minutes, please try again.
Step 3: The email contains a link that will allow you to change your password.
