  1. 2-step security question


    I turned on 2-step verification for my account and now my Xbox One prompts me for a password and verification everytime. Isn't there a way to trust this device?

    My idea of this feature is I only use a few devices and if I login on one other than these handful of devices, I should be notified. Is there any way to apply this to my Xbox One? It seemed like 360 had an option to remember password (even though it was
    an app password).

    Thanks

    :)

  2. Account being hacked!

    In the end your account is your responsibility. Someone obviously knows your password, e-mail address, and enough information about you that they can walk through the security questions and answer them correctly. Turn on 2-step verification and change
    the answers to your security questions then change your password.

    Xbox live account stolen

    1. Contact Xbox Support, Report the problem, they will be able to put your account on hold.

    2. Contact your card issuer, place the card on hold or report unauthorized activity.

    3. Wait for Xbox/Issuer to give a refund and make things right.

    4. While waiting, change your account information, add security questions along with 2 step verification security.

    5. Get your account back :)

    please anyone help, trouble with outlook

    Ok,

    Then remove all security information (Email, Phone) but update your Secret Question, then wait 30 days to add new Security proofs.

    *For more security when adding secret question try as the following example:

    Question: First Car ?

    Answer: xxHarvardxx (answer does not related with the question as a plus add 2 letters or numbers at the begining/midle/end/both sides for increase security)
