"On administrative Hold" isnt something bad immediately.

Usually, Linden will ask your friend to provide details if he is the person who opened the account, they have to be sure, that your friends RL self is the actual holder of the account. If hes Premium, hr might want to contact via chat.

Sadly they need a longer time to react, so it can be that your friends account stays grounded up to a month.

Seems to me if you lost your login settings, you just send message to LL with a different email and they reset pw for you.

A friend tried it say he forgot his pw and secret question and LL did reset his PW.

Seems to me LL doesn't know anything about security at all.

It's pretty easy to building safety feature like sending confirm email with attached link Where the changed settings will be final. Forums act like that for years. Changes can only be made when logged in and new pw, email or any other changes in the account info will be final AFTER confirmation sended to the Email that was related to the account before changes are made.
