I have been hacked wayyyy back... my Binance account, it wasn't a lot of money, only a $100 usd but back then I only got into crypto and it was a terrible to say the least... so far nothing on Hive..
Although curious, how exactly does this account recovery work and is there a post about it somewhere, I might need to check if I have an account set to that?
Regarding account recovery, you can read these posts:

Thanks a lot @arcange. I'll check this out no doubt!
Maybe this post from first search result: https://hive.blog/hive-139531/@reazuliqbal/hive-account-recovery-gui
I know @arcange also has some UI and posts about it.
Basically if you have another account assigned as your recovery, you can then contact that person/account and ask them to start the recovery process. You have 30 days from the day your passwords were changed to reset it.
This only works if you still have the old original keys and the person you're in contact with knows you are the real owner. They can initiate a reset of the keys which effectively locks the hacker out of the account and provides you with the new keys.
Thanks for this!! Arcange also commented with a link to some more information.
