AWS account compromised. Help stopping services

1

I am hoping that someone can please help me. I signed up to AWS Free Tier in February to follow a AWS course. After not using AWS for many months, I received a notification of a charge for a service called Lightsail. I quickly located and deleted the instance (I never started this service). I notified support by logging a support ticket. I reset my Password and setup 2FA but new charges keep appearing on my account. In November it was only Lightsail but in December, every 2 days there is a new charge on my Bill. At the moment, these charges other than Lightsail are showing up as $0. Unlike Lightsail I cannot find any other services running and I am unable to stop them. Everyday there are new requests and new API requests for Services such as CodeArtifact, Data Transfer, Service Catalog from multiple Regions but I do not know how to stop them. I have contacted Support but there are waiting to hear back from the service team. So far, after few days I have been told that my account was compromised. Can someone please help me stop these.

Here is the bill:

Contacting support (which you've done) is the best thing to do here. You should also check in the IAM console and ensure that there are no other users or access keys that are active. There is some more guidance here: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/potential-account-compromise/
