Forced Subscription scam possibly??

When in doubt (and you always should be) don't sign up (which you never should do).

I recieved an e-mail that was supposedly from xbox to join in the beta for the update, but stopped registering when it started asking for work information, and other personal information. i called the toll free number and asked if it was legit. when i read

I hope this helps you to report this type of phising scam. #4 may be useful for you to report this scam.

I found this information below on xbox site address :
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/account-security/stolen-account

"If you suspect that someone is trying to phish you, you can use the following tools to report it as a potential scam. Doing so helps keep the Xbox LIVE community safe.

1. Xbox 360: Bring up the player profile, select File Complaint, select File Complaint again, select Text and Voice Communication and then select Text message to file a complaint, where it will be reviewed by our Enforcement Team.
   
2. Internet Explorer: While you are on a suspicious site, click the gear icon and then point to Safety. Then click Report Unsafe Website and use the web page that is displayed to report the website.
   
3. Hotmail: If you receive a suspicious email message that asks for personal information, click the check box next to the message in your Hotmail inbox. Click Mark as and then select Phishing scam.
   
4. E-mail: Attach the suspicious email message to a new email message and forward it to
   L: *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** "
   
   
   

It's common that people receive messages to get free stuff from websites they've never heard of, but in the future don't call out other gamers in the forums

No problem not everyone knows about the name and shame rule. Don't worry yourself. The option that would best fit what he did would've been the Messaging option.

I posted here because there's not the proper option in "file compliant" section, that's why.

I already imagined this kind of reply here but ok, next time I will not repeat my mistake, sorry.

Thank you anyway and happy gaming!
