  1. What can I do if someone uses my own real face as a profile picture without my permission?


    I have already reported and nothing has happened as of yet. So I was just wondering. I've also read up on some things about the guide lines with what's apporiate for a profile picture and the use of a real picture of someone's face doesn't have much of a mention. I feel like it should be under inappropriate and/or exposure of personal information. If anyone can help that would be highly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    :)

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    You will be needing to report this, Nat.C. Please follow the steps below:

    "1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide, go to People, and then do one of the following to find the player you wish to report:

    *If the player is a friend, select Friends, and then select their gamertag.

    *If the player isn't a friend, select Recently played with, or select Find someone and enter the player's gamertag to search. Once you find the player, select their gamertag.

    2. From the player's profile, select Report or block, and then select Report.

    3. Choose your category and reason for the report. Make sure that you choose the most accurate category, as this detail is important to ensuring Xbox Safety can investigate the issue properly.

    4. Select Add comment to provide more info, and then select Submit."

    Somebody is using my face as a profile picture

    It can take longer than 4 to 5 hours for the enforcement team to investigate. They receive thousands of reports a day and investigate each one.

    Somebody is using my face as a profile picture

    Thank you for the reply, I now understand that it could take more time. But, is it allowed on Xbox or can they do this?

    I run the risk of being banned?

    Thanks for the reply.

    However neither my profile was banned. What was banned at the time was only the Console.

    My doubt is if I can use these two accounts that have 5 games in them, where I bought with real money, without those "stolen accounts"

    My accounts are unique.

    Can someone help me get this doubt?
