When I was little and wanted to create a new gmail account the name (entire gmail Id) I tried to use was taken. As a kid I got angry that someone already took it. I typed that gmail Id in “log in” section, clicked “forgot password” (back then, if you answer security question correctly within couple tries it would directly allow you to reset password) . Accidentally successfully hacked that gmail, there were work and family related mails, contacts, etc. As a kid nothing interested me. Out of fury I just erased everything in inbox,sent,draft,contacts (in chat), etc. *BUT* didnt delete the gmail account… so that when the *REAL* owner of that gmail logs in, he/she would freak out…. Now I am grown up, if that ever happened to me, I’d lose my s***. I am extremely sorry to whoever that gmail belonged to…. Even before I could realize my fault, I forgot the gmail Id that I did all this to… hence never getting a chance to send my apologies.
