Still happening again

TysonHildebrandt · Jul 17, 2020

For months i have been playing with guy on black ops 4, so yesterday i got offline for a min and when i joined back into the party i got kicked by the guy that i knew turns out hi and other person tried to get my ip information as far my state and city.
So i have reported them and blocked them. So i have a question how can people get your ip if you are in the party. cause from what i am hearing its a ongoing thing is ms ever gonna stop this from happening again. It seems that people love to hack a persons
ip just to find out where you live. We should all be able to get online without worrying about people trying to get your ip. Does this happen to anyone else and what should i do to prevent this in the future.

it is easy to get an ip, the ip address is public information and anyone can legally obtain another persons ip address, the ip address will show geo location but not a physical address.

now if they try to ddos the ip then it becomes a cybercrime and you can report to the isp and police.

you can either shut off your router for 15 minutes or call your isp to change the ip.

if you dont join another party with them then they cant get your new ip again.

It would be advisable to post in your previous thread so people can see what solutions have already been tried...otherwise, people may end up recommending steps already tried which wastes both your time and theirs
