Unknown Rockstar Games Account linked to my Steam account
Can anyone help me? i have an unknown Rockstar Games account linked to my Steam account which i didnt know of. I Bought myself the Game again to play FiveM, and when i tried to launch fivem or story mode, it needs my rockstar account and it gives me a hint to the email but the email is not mine. When i try to launch GTA5 on Steam from RG Launcher it says that another account is connected to my Steam. Can anyone help? Rockstar takes forever to answer to support.

You can check your email inbox - for an email from R* - telling you the email on your account changed. That email may be in another language, or spam/filtered. In the email is a link to recover the account by yourself. It is also possible that this link has expired. If you do not have the recovery email, or it has expired - you will need to contact R* support - link at the bottom. Then, answer the questions, jump through hoops, etc etc - and they will change the email on your social club account - to an email you can access.

Do NOT unlink. RECOVER your old account.
You also had/have RDO on that steam account, likely linked if that was forgotten.

and the copypasta -
Fun times. Join the neverending flood of this nonsense. Much info - click and read -

tl;dr/lazy - use this link below to contact R* without logging in to RECOVER your account/fix/change email to one you have access to. Be explicit in stating that. Yep, many hoops to jump to prove you are the owner, have the steam account, cdkey etc, and days to wait/repeat yourself -

/goodluck - for some it is a couple hours, others days/weeks, multiple tries.

Hi, I cant Recover any old account since it isnt mine! Thats what im trying to tell. This steam account that i am using and i have Full Video-Proof of me Creating the account has been Hacked but Recovered by Steam Support. The Hacker probably linked a random RG account to my Steam account. I will try this tho.

You have RDO on that steam account. It has hours played. That means your steam account is likely already linked to a social club account. If you did not buy this, then you do not 'care' if you lose it via unlinking 'that' social club account from steam.

That is something R* will have to do for you - ONLY AFTER they confirm that your gta5 key is NOT used 'on' that social club account.

Regardless, there is nothing you can do but contact R* if you don't have recovery email.

edit - Yes you did, or it was already linked. Regardless, only R* can help you.
From the store page - "Requires 3rd-Party Account: Rockstar Games Social Club "
