    I think I may have been scammed.


    When I turned on my Xbox, one of those ads or whatever in the bottom right corner was there. Usually I ignore them but this one caught my eye. It was for a sweepstake for a free Xbox series x and a whole bunch of other stuff. I then accidentally registered for the sweepstakes and I cant unregister. It dose not look official at all or look like its an actual Fortnite ad. What do I do? (Please help I don't want My account Being Hacked.)

    It's a legit sweepstakes, so you have nothing to worry about.

    In addition to changing your password, take a read on Account Security:
    www.xbox.com/.../AccountSecurity

    Here's an excerpt as for what to do:

    What can you do?
    1. If you have not lost access to your account yet, immediately change your Windows Live ID password.
    2. Change your secret question and secret answer for your account.
    3. Change your alternate email address associated with your Windows Live ID.
    For information on how to perform these actions from a computer online, please go toaccounts.live.com, and click "Help Central" at the bottom of the page.

    For "How-to steps" to perform these changes through the Xbox LIVE dashboard can be found at the following address:

    Hello Brutal. Unfortunately, scams like this can be quite a nuisance. I would suggest changing your password to your account. This may help the situation, but I am not completely positive.

    Have i been scammed?

    Hey there!

    Nice to meet you! My name is Christian, an independent advisor. I'm here to help you out.

    If you really did try all the troubleshooting steps there are on the internet then there are only 2 more things you can do.

    Get in touch with Xbox Support and see if there was something that went wrong with the transaction and see what other options they can provide. Here is the link to get in touch.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us

    Or you can try getting support from the developers themselves. Use this link to access their support page.

    https://support.activision.com/options

    (The links are in English)

    I hope this helps.

    Best Regards,

    Christian.
