From what BrightScorpion said you can not steal another persons account with this! You can only change your Windows Live ID Password!

Just got hacked today, and the -blam!- spent $250 dollars on my Credit Card, and stole my account. I know, I was -blam!- pissed. Thanks to you, I stole his account, got mine back, and now his IP Adress is banned from Xbox Live. Thanks bro, this helped a lot.

How low can you get? really?

Im not kidding.

Who would go through all that trouble just to get the 620 gamerscore that i have?

Some people are really sad.

This is almost as bad as paying £100 for 1,000,000 gold on Runescape.


Major kudos on the article. :)

But the biggest tip of all... KEEP YOUR PASSWORD SECRET.

Althought That is true they do get free xbox live. That is why they would do it!

How about just not being stupid enough to fall for phishing or social engineering scams? Or trusting your sensitive data in the hands of a company that tells their tech support staff to hand out your passwords to anyone who can fill in a few facts about you?

No wonder you can't link it, you dimwit. You spelled it wrong. Ever heard of proofreading?

In any case, this wall of text is just stuff that any half-brained person would do if they got hacked. Fail.

Thanks for pointing out that small error, I fixed it but it still does not allow you to link it!

Or to cover this whole topic, you couldve just said 'Step 1, learn how to make a good password that doesnt get bruteforced; /tutorial'

Ok but good question would be how does the supposed "hacker" get access to the files in which these passwords hashes are stored? It's reasonable to assume that these files are stored on microsoft servers across the world, so if a hacker can get access to those files then something is terribly wrong and an Xbox live account is the least of our worries. Furthermore, that would be the last thing on a hacker's mind who has enough skill to do these things.

No, what really happens (I believe) is that much of the information for the account is phished from xbox live customer support. No hacking really is involved, that is a misnomer.

But if you really want to know how to make a good password: use a sentence. Even something so simple as "Jack and Jill ran up the hill" will be nearly impossible to bruteforce, or it will take for-freaking-ever to do so. Seriously! Sentence passwords are the most secure. You would be surprised how EASILY passwords with special characters, different cases, and numbers can be cracked.

This thread is great, but you also need to stress the importance of keeping a strong password (one that is alpha-numeric with some caps). Strong passwords leave it less likely for a hacker to successfully hack your account.

Well you can also use this to just change the password to make it harder! As I mentioned before it does say how secure your password is!

The password is a main component to making sure that your account doens't get hacked! It seems to me that it has been a while since an account with Recon has been hacked thanks to Bungie. They no longer reveal the winners for Recon.

If you are having problems PM Brightscorpion and maybe he can help you out. Don't be hesitant to ask otherwise you might never get your account back!

If they change the name and live id, you can check your friends service record and find a game you know you played with them. It will display the new gamertag. It might be to late by then, but its still something to go on.

Luv. We all can has it. Togethr.

Something else to do to prevent a hack is that when you're creating a WLID password, be sure that it's indicated as "strong." That in itself should prevent most hacks, so long as you're careful with who you give the information to.

Thanks for the tips!
