    hacking!

    If you're threatened by someone, go to their gamer profile and file a complaint on them. Threatening someone with hacking is against the rules and the person will be punished. Also, you might want to block communications with this person as well.

    Just report the person that threatened you for harassment from your console or block him from further abuse.

    Report the profile that threatened you to Microsoft and block them. Chances are he's just trying to scare you. I've heard that threat before as well and nothing ever happened to me. It's just someone who is angry. It's not illegal to threaten to hack someone
    however, if said user DID hack you, that would be a different story.

    Hacking Threat

    Yeah while it the rule occasionaly bugs me, just think anyone could get on here and say you threatened to hack them and everyone would believe it not that I'm saying you aren't telling the truth but there are people who would do that just to get people in
    trouble.
