I subsequently changes my email address back and changed my password and changed my pin.

I searched for gift cards in this thread and did not find out whether or not anyone else that had this happen to them ultimately received a refund. I'm afraid that I have lost these miles. It stinks that no one at United will even talk to you about it. It would be nice if someone could try to cancel the gift cards. Hackers and thieves suck.
