    Microsoft Account Hacked

    Here you go buddy, some info! https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12414/microsoft-account-identity-verification-apps-faq

    people don't need to change email address when compromised, they need to change password and make sure they have proper security... that includes not using passwords on more than one service, if one service is compromised all those details are sold.

    Someone in another country will pop up with it, even if it takes years to happen. My skype password took approximately 4 years from compromise to have someone log in and use it.

    This app makes you click approve when logging into websites, and it's instant once you click "accept" the website will load in normal.

    Any devices that don't work with the app like xbox 360 will have you go to website once to create a password (it will generate a password that isn't easy) and you use that on those devices to login with your normal user name.

    Microsoft Account Hacked

    Im tired of this hacking shit.

    Off topic, everyone needs to watch out for that ransomware shit.


    Last year almost 1 billion got paid out. That was a huge jump from 2015 where only 32 million was paid out. With a jump like that Im sure it will grow even more.

    Account hacked

    Based on the username you have now, it looks like a Forced Name Change (FNC) has been applied to your account, which would only happen if the Enforcement Team felt your previous username violated the Code of Conduct.

    You can confirm that this is the case by posting here:
    forums.xbox.com/.../4276.aspx


    That is the forum monitored by the Enforcement Team.

    If this is the case, and it looks likely, you will need to pay the fee should you wish to change it to something of your own choosing.

    I got to play the xboxone and ps4....

    Beachbum don't get in a hacking argument lol. Hacking single accounts is different than hacking into the PSN and stealing account info and credit cards.

    Microsoft Refund Policy is a JOKE!

    Your account wasn’t hacked. No one hacks an account and buys games for them lol.

    Microsoft you have a PROBLEM

    Unless a main website or service has been hacked - like PSN, it's not a hack ok.

    Phishing, NOT a hack

    Social engineering, NOT a hack

    Giving someone your LIVE ID to someone else and then losing your account,
    NOT a hack

    Using dodgy software or websites offering free points and what not, then losing your account, still
    NOT a hack.

    Signing up for various suspect websites using the same email address and password for LIVE. then losing your account. still
    NOT a hack.

    If EA was compromised and it held your Windows LIVE ID, this is technically a hack, but it's EA that would have been hacked, not Xbox LIVE. When I say 'hack' I mean a real, sophisticated website or server attack. A hack in the literal sense of the word.

    Hacked Account

    Hacked Once = Possibly

    Hacked Multiple times = Unlikeley

    MS to keep restoring your account after multiple hacks = Impossible

    IMO

    So something else got hacked and the information was used to hack accounts. While its indirect it wasn't a complete hack of XBL Wilk0.
