Do it right now, do not wait! Check your email associated with your XBox Live account, check your recent games played and stuff downloaded! Do it now! Evidently, there's a problem with EA and they randomly hand out XBL info. Either that or they're easy to hack, or something. Whatever the case, some asshole somehow got hold of my account and charged about $75 to my card and dled a bunch of FIFA12 shit. I already changed the username/password (and was surprised I could actually access the account), and I'll have to call the credit card company and XBL Support in the morning. Guess my day's already wasted, but hopefully my account isn't totally screwed... www.insidegamingdaily.com/2011/10/14/xbox-live-accounts-hacked-in-the-name-of-fifa-love/www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=339207 |

Well, I called Cap1 and killed my card. Called XBL and killed my account, at least for a month or so while they "conduct the investigation." Card should be fixed within a week or so (I hope so, is almost time for me to Christmas shop...and I wanted to get it done early this year, silly me...), and DBL account in a month. And y'know, I really don't care if I get to keep my account (except for my 1/2 year of Gold that's still prepaid, of course, and the fact that I can't watch NetFlix for awhile), but I'd really like for this futbol fan to pay for stealing from me and fucking up my morning. I'm actually feeling much better, now. The Cap1 girl was foreign and hard to understand, but very polite and helpful. And the XBL girl was (I assume from the lack of accent) American and very pleasant to deal with, and also very helpful. It's early yet, but I'm confident that I will be satisfied with the whole process. Well, as satisfied as I can be after having my identity stolen...  |

Hopefully your Futball thief was a United fan.
United....United......United!
Glad you got things worked out so fast.

and for the ps3 thing, yeah somethin happend! 2 free games for everyone!! woot Don't think it's gonna happen with this; neither MS nor EA wanna admit that anything is wrong, despite the fact that the problem seems to be with EA games (mostly FIFA12 and 11, from what I understand), and that a shitload of ppl are getting hacked and it's following a pattern. I actually feel kind of retarded - I had thought that MS would have a been a safe place for my credit card info. Nope, sucker. But now I know better. I hope... (Oh, and they didn't sound particularly hot. The CenturyLink girl when I called them a couple years ago? Now she sounded hot!) |
