Someone Took Ownership of my Search Console Account Last Night Without Permission

I got an email around 3pm that someone had been added as an owner of my account. I am the only owner of the site and only have SC shared with my 2 personal gmail account.

I see the email when I wake up today assuming I was hacked and they removed my ownership of the account, but after logging in all seems normal and the new user does not show under my account. I then changed password for both my email accounts.

Has this happened to anyone else and you know what I should be looking out for? I'm not sure why someone would hack just SC, and what harm they could do from there?
