Someone Logged into My Etsy from Another Country
## Direct Answer
If someone has logged into your Etsy account from another country, immediately change your password and enable two-factor authentication to secure your account.
## Step-by-Step Guide
To protect your account and prevent further unauthorized access, follow these steps:
1. **Change your password**: Go to Etsy.com, log in, and click on “You” (your profile picture), then “Account settings” and “Password”. Choose a strong, unique password.
2. **Enable two-factor authentication**: In “Account settings”, click on “Security” and toggle on “Two-factor authentication”. This will require a verification code sent to your phone or email in addition to your password.
3. **Check your account activity**: Review your recent account activity, including orders, conversations, and profile changes, to ensure nothing suspicious has occurred.
4. **Update your recovery email and phone number**: Verify that your recovery email and phone number are up-to-date, in case you need to reset your password or receive verification codes.
5. **Monitor your account**: Regularly check your account for any signs of unauthorized access.
