  1. Player is threatening to "Dox" me


    So I just got onto my xbox to play some Warframe and noticed a message request. I have no idea who this person is, I didn't play with them at all ever, and claim they found me through some spanish group and that the group was going to dox me?

    How do I protect my account? I have no idea if he's trolling or not, but I take the threat seriously. I have put a lot of money into my account over the years and a lot more time. How can I ensure they aren't able to dox me?

    EDIT: I had screenshot proof but they got removed..?

    Player is threatening to "Dox" me

    Hello, I understand what you are going through. A (Dox) more commonly known as a (Doxx) attack is: dox

    /däks/

    verb

    INFORMAL

    verb: doxx

    1. search for and publish private or identifying information about (a particular individual) on the internet, typically with malicious intent.

      "hackers and online vigilantes routinely dox both public and private figures"
    So basically the individual is informing you that you have been targeted by a group or their friends and that they are going to attack you in this manner.

    This is a class 3 felony subject to up to 10 years in prison and needs to legally be reported to the authorities as an online crime.

    I recommend getting a case number report from Microsoft providing details to give to the agent from the FBI and or www.IC3.com agent whom takes your case. They will contact Microsoft directly to collect additional information once you've made a proper report.

    In the mean time, I recommend that you change your passwords, add additional security or 2-step verification to your account. Possibly contacting a VPN group to add security as they may also attempt DOS and even DDOS attacks directly to your modem, if they haven't already started doing so.

    This has been happening to a lot of people I know recently and is a group of kids wrecking havoc online..

    I wish you the best of luck and hope they catch them. You can sue them for hardships once it is all said and done and the authorities have caught them.

    Hello, how are you? Hope you're well. My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

    First, welcome to the Xbox community. If you don't know the person and don't want to chat with them, I suggest that you block them from receiving more messages from this profile. The best way to protect your account is to use Microsoft's authenticator and also better passwords.

    Learn how to use the Microsoft Authenticator using the instructions in the article below.

    What is and isn't considered offensive and profane on this god forsaken console?

    Then why is another player able to tell me I'm dog s-word puddle water and I report them and they not get even comm banned but if I call someone an a hole I get permabanned? I mean just last night someone threatened to dox me, harass all my friends list, social media, threaten my family and loved ones and I report them and nothing. Nothing happens. So obviously there is a list of smack talk that seems to be allowed.

    Support does not fully understand how the forums work and typically sends people here with the wrong advice. Calling out other gamers is against forum rules and the enforcement team don't take complaints via the forum.
