Someone is booting me offline

CozyAlligator · Nov 1, 2015

Hello ambassadors. I am experiencing a problem with someone that I have been playing xbox with quite a while now. His gamertag is [GT Removed] - Do not name and shame on the forums. He started booting (ddos) people off at the beginning
of this month and i recently got on the receiving end off it. I have not played with him since and he is still booting me offline even when I don't play with him.I haven't played with him for about a week or so. I know that he has my I.P. written down because
the other people in my group say that he has all of ours written down in a program he pays $30 a month for. My parents work from home and this is causing a real hardship as they have lost information when we are dedossed. I am sure I am not the only person
that this is happening to. Please help!!

:)

Someone booting me offline

how do I solve the problem when someone is booting me offline

Someone keeps booting me offline.

Assuming you're not using a static IP switch your router off, wait a minute or two then switch it back on again. Another hacker thwarted again. If that doesn't work then phone your ISP and get a new IP address sorted. He can't take your account either, if
he could he would've done it instead of demanding 1600MSp.

Once you've done that file a complaint against this person, set them to avoid and block communications. Denial of Service attacks (ie this) are also highly illegal so look to get the police involved at your discretion.

You need to take this up with your ISP and get another IP address if it's a stactic one. If it isn't static just reboot your router to get another IP address

Oh by the way.. I would delete him from your friends list as friends don't dos friends.

Sorry but you are not allowed to name and shame on the forums. If you believe someone to be doing something against the ToU and CoC of the Live service then use the dashboard reporting tools to report the person. Go to their bio and select File Complaint
then follow the instructions to report the person.

DDoS attacks are illegal. You should report these attacks to your ISP. They should issue you a new IP address and investigate the attacks.

Hi there ConnectionIsBae.

If you're having trouble with a player please don't post their information on the forums, as it's against the Xbox Forums ToU. Be sure to file a complaint for the player through your console for the Enforcement team to look into. In the future also be sure
not to bump older threads and instead create a new thread. This will help us best help you out. Cheers!

ive been booted twice today from someone called [Mod removed: Please no naming and shaming] how do i report this

I Kill For Days

HA. funny.. How did they get my Ip in the first place?? ..through Xbox Live party chat/or in a game.. so that still attacking through the xbox server? Now is that on the CoC?? and i already know that i can call my ISP. Is that all you can just say.. is call
my ISP or report the player? That all i been hearing through this POST. Im not gonna be done posting until they find that hacker. Im not gonna let a hacker get away with it and let him hack more people on Xbox Live. I still have his gamertag BTW?

I found out what happened, the hack scrambles your Xbox ip address and and other stuff so I fixed it by disconnecting my Xbox from my Internet and restarting my modem and it started to work again

You will need to file a complaint on him via the console and the enforcement team can take it from there. Calling out other gamers is not allowed on the forums.

Since he is disconnecting you from your internet, you may also want to call your ISP to let them know what happened.
