scene   10 #1 Posted June 4, 2010 Hiya forumers! Anyone with an xbox live account needs to watch out, there is a group of hackers going round and hacking onto xbox's when you're on live. What happens once they've done what ever they're doing is anyone can scroll over your player, see your username, email and password. This has just happened to my brother, he phoned microsoft and they said they're is nothing they can really do. =/  Just thought i would pass this on to you to let you know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Weazel2006 Â Â 27 #4 Posted June 4, 2010 sounds like he goofed up to me, besides if your using an email address with important documents you get what's coming to you. Â I use hotmail for spam and googlemail for anything important. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

scene   10 #6 Posted June 7, 2010 How can he have goofed up? i think you missed the point. nobody GUESSED his password, what retard would have their password as 'password'? anyways, when somebody HACKS the system, it shows you peoples password and email... not that they have guessed it.  and haha @ gmail hack. gmail has quite a few loop holes.. as someone has bragged about on various websites.    please close topic as nobody needs to know anything else was just trying to give people a heads up.

Greengeek   10 #7 Posted June 7, 2010 Don't you think a hack reported in 2007, would have been resolved by now?  And who uses a beta email service for business? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

scene   10 #9 Posted June 7, 2010 yes you can just simply hack an xbox live account. some people out there can hack almost everything... don't know why you would waste time hacking. Loop holes are exposed.. like facebook for example... there is a website and a youtube video on how to hack someones facebook and you don't need there password to access there messages ect...  and microsoft aren't hack proof thats why.

gashh   10 #11 Posted June 7, 2010 This happened to me not long ago. May I add, my password is a difficult one to guess due to the variation of letters and numbers. But luckily it was my spam email address, I don't understand why they would do this either I was simply playing on Fifa.  But like alot of websites say, if somebody wants to get your personal information, they will get to it through whatever way they can whether it be a scam or a hacking technique.  If people use their heads and incase of something like this happening, only use a spam email so nothing further can happen eg: bank account details for online banking.  But thanks for this.

swarfendor437   14 #12 Posted June 9, 2010 Don't you think a hack reported in 2007, would have been resolved by now?  Well how about something more up-to-date (relatively speaking that is): http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-10434684-264.html   And who uses a beta email service for business?  No-one with any sense!  swarfendor43 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
