Before deciding what can be done about this sort of thing, don't we need
to know how the email was hacked? Did the owner have 2FA? probably
not. If the attacker got the password then there is no way to tell
except from the content.

I think phoning is a waste of time as the owner probably already knows
because he can't access his account and he has received several calls
already. But then it's like not phoning the fire brigade because you
think someone else has.
