Has anyone recently got a message from Xbox Live telling you to add two security proofs or get locked from adding XBL Gold subscriptions and the like?,and how will they know you've added the two security proofs as requested?

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

I don't know what you mean, but this is making me want to check the status of my alt GT very soon.

No point in putting something funny, clever or informative here. Most probably im going to get perma-banned anyway.

I dont know. But just add a proof, its not hard and its good.

Haha very funny cause i don't think Microsoft would do that unless you're referring to a hacker who's trying to get the security proofs from you.

Welcome.

Add security proofs, it's to protect your valuable information.

It's Microsoft wanting you to add two security proofs in-case you get hacked and you're trying to get your gamertag/account back so it's their way of confirming you are the owner of the account/gamertag you're trying to retreive.

I've got one too, except he's got a blue tie (not red).

If online security were like this, it would mean a lot less misfortune.

yup, they actually threatened to ban me if I didn't add security proofs in the message in a passive-aggressive way.

Indeed.


Oh hey, he was gone for a few hours and he has come back with the head of some guy with glasses. I guess it was a hacker or something.

Thanks Mr.Bald guy!
