    So recently (Maybe 4 or 5 hours ago) My account was hacked, password not changed, username not changed, but for some reason my Bio was He/Him when normally it is the lyrics to Dunkey's This is a Chicken Wing video. They also changed my Location to In My
    Room when normally it's in the middle of nowhere. They also changed my profile picture to hearts. What should I do to prevent another hack from happening? I never gave out account info and no one but me has my account.

    :)

    My Account was hacked and I'm not sure what else to do to protect it other than just switching passwords.

    You could set up 2 step verification on your account, more information here:

    Hope that helps

    Null and void? The companies that have been compromised aren't telling us to change our passwords and aren't requiring us to submit new ones so changing them will protect you. I'm not a 100% sure what you meant.

    We can only do so much to protect ourselves but if the companies that are entrusted with protecting our data can't protect it then we lose in the end. My Rift MMO account was compromised when Trion was hacked, had to change credit card after Target hack,
    still waiting to see if Home Depot hack will impact my CC.....all three of those were out of my hands, nothing I could have done on my end to prevent the lose of my info other than not shopping there.

    I Got hacked last month

    Hi there,

    I'm assuming that what is shown on the image could just be a bug in the Historical data overview.

    Since as far as I know the Console itself can not be hacked or corrupted.

    Just to be sure you can try a manual power cycle steps like mentioned on the following link, be sure to wait at least 60 seconds before powering on again:

    http://support.xbox.com/en-us/xbox-one/console/power-cycle-console


    Regarding the hacking be sure to double check your Microsoft account activity via:
    https://account.live.com/Activity

    To see if somebody did get access to your account or not.

    If there was no successful login from anywhere else all is good there, which is the most important thing.

    Regarding the Epic account, if you haven't yet be sure to check this link regarding protecting your Epic account:

    PC gaming is more prone to hacking than console is. So you basically pay for the protection of your info aswell as what the others have mentioned.

    Microsofts new way of not letting you remove card details!!!

    It took 2 weeks? Lol - hackers take less than an hour to clean you out completely, If they wanted to.

    If you were 'hacked ' I'm sure you were protected.
