Subject: How Do You Deal With People that Claim they will Hack your account?

If you get threatened by said 'hackers' what is the best way to deal with said threat? I have recently been threatened in this way. What do I Do?

I get threatened every second of my life, seriously.
Don't worry about it.
Just, don't join their parties, and you'll be fine.

I laugh at them because they cant.

  • 08.25.2010 7:39 PM PDT

Report and move on.

  • 08.25.2010 7:39 PM PDT

i usualy would reply with "go ahead, that way i can obtain your info to hack you"

if there lieing then it usualy scares them

Haha, I was recently threatened by some idiot who threatened to hack my account. He kept threatening me and I simply kept calling him out. Eventually he just ignored my messages

  • 08.25.2010 7:45 PM PDT

You reply: "LOL"
No, but seriously you laugh, report, and move on.
It takes immense amounts of skills to actually go about and hack an account.
What these kids actually do is call up Microsoft and trick them into giving them your password.
Pro tip: Minimize the amount of personal information about you on the internet.
Make your Facebook/Myspace private.
Don't put in your Bio the exact place you live.
Never put your last name along with your first name together.
Make a complex password.
Problem solved.

I lol at them, spamming their inboxes with lulz.

  • 08.25.2010 9:21 PM PDT

I laugh at them, practically beg them to do it, and sometimes add a clever insult to their mother while I'm at it.

Of course, I also tend to change my password. I already change my password monthly. But during one of the 'ima hack burrito' fads? I do change it sooner.

Hates to love and loves to hate.

Block communications, mute and move one.

  • 08.25.2010 9:36 PM PDT

Just simply ignore them.

Hello many people above are right but I have seen people hack accounts before. They have done it to me once and my credit card was on that account and my god over 200 dollors spent on the acarde games and microsoft points it was hell and I didnt even give them my password so I mean it was a legit hack I guess thats what you can call it. But all in a short note got my money back and account. So just be carefull block commuincations is the best way to go works for me..

My third montage!

I laugh at them then ignore/report them.

They can't hack you when you join their parties. They invite you to sniff out your i.p. while you're in the party. From there they can look up info about the i.p. and gather some general info about you, such as where you live, what service provider you have, etc.

Still don't join random parties, even if they don't "hack" you *ahem* (social engineer), they can DDoS you and boot you offline if you lack the proper internet security.

If you join someone's party they do get your IP address though, so i wouldn't reccomend joing their xbl or halo party.

Not any person can "hack" your account through an IP. I'm not sure if it's even possible, tbh.

If anyone says their going to jack your account, just change your password and make sure your secret answer is not related to the question, and then abuse them and laugh at them.
