I wanted to delete my old oppo id account, and to do that I’ll need to login into it, but I don’t know the password.
Password reset requires saying when the account was created (month and year) and “tech support” can’t help here either.
Is it legal to block / hide account deletion behind login in European countries? GDPR (and polish RODO) both talk about a right to data deletion, which in this case, I believe, isn’t respected.
What would prevent someone else from requesting the deletion of your account if there was no proof that you are the person whose account it is?
I’m writing from the email associated with the account, this is enough for most services I encountered
Emails can be spoofed.
That’s just how it is. If you try hard enough everything can be spoofed. You can also try guessing someone’s password and creation date of an account. This is not the issue here.
The issue is with support not giving you an adequate account recovery method, they’re correct about validating ownership of the account tho.
