    So recently I logged on to Rainbow Six Seige only to find I somehow had the season pass content! I was very suprised, but hadn't payed much attention to the actual edition I purchased, so I assumed I'd purchased the deluxe edition. Then a couple days later
    I went to purchase Battlefield 1 pre-order only to find that instead of the option to buy it, I was presented with the option to install it. This shocked me but I was overjoyed that Santa Xbox had decided to come early. I went over to the ready to install
    section and found a treasure trove of games I didn't recall buying! Evolve, The Division and ARK to name a few. All games that at least one friend owned, so I knew I'd be able to play with people - and I did! But yesterday, when I tried to play on the Division
    I was greeted by the 'Do you own this game or app?' prompt. At first I was sad that my adventures where over, but then I realised something - I'd made in-game purchases with some of those 'free' games, and spent in-game currency in others! I lost renown in
    rainbow six since I'd spent it on blackbeard's weapon add-ons, for example. If anyone can help with this issue, I'd really appreciate it. I was getting into some of these games, and to have them apparently revoked is heartbreaking.

    fable 3 lost alll items but gold

    You can't have been robbed by another player, the system doesn't work that way.

    Don't take me as not believing you lost all your stuff, but it can't have been taken by another player without you having gifted it over.

    Did anyone downloaded their profile on your console or activated the gameshare/home share? Please take note that some games like Rainbow Siege had a free to play weekend that allowed people to download and play it for free temporarily

    You would never be given a bunch of free games like that so it does sound like someone was gamesharing with you but have now stopped.

    Unfortunately you've lost those in game purchases unless you actually buy the games.

    You should of found out why you were able to download them without paying first really.

  6. Well my friend did download his profile, but it was ages before this incident, and he never changed any settings. I did look into the whole gameshare thing but since we never did anything thatcould've enabled it I assumed it was glitch or something. I was
    worried about hackers buying games but seeing as the games are now gone I'm assuming that wasn't it.

    Microsoft rewards gift cards

    Oh yeah, you're right. I just double-checked. It's subscriptions where they send you a code, not gift cards. Sorry for the incorrect info, Rob!

    Microsoft rewards gift cards

    Thank you both. I was looking at the latter option but wondered if Microsoft might see it as gifting to myself. Looks like I can do this, thank you. Best, Rob.
