    Friendsrequest spamming


    The last 72 hours i have gotten well over 200 people who added me as a friend for no reason. It keeps spamming random people who adds me as friends. Some with 0 gamerscore as well. I also keep getting invites to games like f.eks minecraft or fortnite. And
    a couple of hi messages. The random people who keeps adding me in an incredible fast pace is really annoying, frustrating and dusturbs my gaming. I try to block them with no effect but they still are listed as followers. In case it was some sort of phising
    attackIn or spambots, i reported a few and blocked a few but for no use as it continues. I even webt on to settings trying to block anything to do with sosial, but alas no luck. I have stopped blocking and reporting for now.

    In 10 years i have had no activity exept those ive added myself and one occasionally rare add. 72 hours ago i had maybe 90+ followers, that has been accumulated since xbox one came out. I only have 5 friends. But now i got 311+ followers and it keeps rising
    rappidly. I tried different settings on my xbox scorpio but with no luck. I phoned xbox support who where unfamiliar with the problem but recommended me to talk to xbox ambassador support? I havent found such a chat or forum yet. Ive made one previous post
    on preview forum but no answer. I hope i can get help here or tips or news. Since im with the preview program. I have only been on overwatch and mostly singleplayer games. I havent been socialising either. Im an achievementhunter so im afraid for mt account
    and that somethings seriously wrong. Can you please help me? And does anyone else have this problem?

    :)

    Spamming

    First of all, being an Xbox Ambassador, you should know that naming and shaming is not allowed here on the forums. Second, just keep blocking communications on each of the gamertags that keep bothering you. It's really not that dificult. They will get bored
    after awhile.

    Only idea I can come up with is put a restriction on new names that begin with this freebie gold 24/48/7 day membership..... They aren't allowed to send messages to other gold's until they themselves PAY with valid credit cards for a full year of gold membership??
    Make it somewhat more difficult or have some kind of restriction until it's fully paid for and not through codes for 'trials'.

    Support are wrong to send you here to list gamertags, plain and simple.

    As always they send people here when they are sick of listening to them and want to clear the phone line.

    I suggest you call them back and explain the forum rules to them.

    I cannot support someone that refuse to follow forum rules.
