Xbox Live Gamertag Hacked

First I would like to say that I am a very hardcore gamer.In fact until just recently I was a very determined achievement hunter and would probably play around 10 hours a day, I have major health problems so im inside alot. I am also a very safe person and had never had anything ive owned stolen or hacked before. However yesterday I had a strange message pop up when I turned on my accountto watch Netflix. Apparently my account was signed onto another console. I than noticed that my perfect 106k gamerscore now said 106035G. I immediatley checked my games to see FIFA12 on it with three achievements. I knew from looking it up before that it was a common hack steal someones account and then use their MS points or credit card to purchase FIFA content which using certain methods will allow them to give that content to one of their own accounts on their Xbox, which they would later sell on Ebay or other sites. After I saw the game I checked my MSP balance to find my 5000MSP I used prepaid codes to get, now at a low 11MSP. Horrified I called Microsoft customer support who than put my info down and said that an investigation will be filed,my account will be locked,and I will be emailed at a new email address when they find something. Well today, I checked that email and found that the investigation is over in a single day and that they found no trace of unauthorized activity. Account unlocked, no refund, no demands met, and at that point I was furious. Trying to keep a cool head, I called again to have a horrible support rep,say that my only option is to deny their "findings" and attempt this again except they wont lock my account this time. I hung up and called about 5 min later , because I felt that I needed more info than that. The kind new rep I got seemed to be just as interested at how this happened as I was. Throughout the conversation he said I should change EVERYTHING, including privacy setting, security setting, passwords, and even my Facebook in case of phishing. Id like to state that there was no way this was phishing. My passwords and security questions are far beyond any conversation or piece of info I can put on a site. In the end I did change all my setting and even erased my Facebook. At the end of the phone call he told me that there was quite a bit of information that he added to my account for the investigation team. He told me to continue to pursue this no matter what the result is and to call back in 5 days if I do not receive any news. Im am now waiting to hear what they have to say. For the longest time I trusted Microsofts Security and my information, now I am not so sure. I am 99% positive that phishing would be impossible, so it has to be by some other means. Anyway I will not rest until this is taken care of. I demand that they promise me that my account is now protected and they found the hacker, a perfect refund, andthis FIFA12 stain taken off my account with that 35gamerscore. I will post this message all over the internet and hope that people will see it. I know this has been happening toalot ofpeople and its not fair that this can happen to people who are safe and secure. Anybody who has been hacked like this before please speak up! We cant let these hackers get away with this and we need Microsoft to update their security on Xbox Live. I will be monitoring my own progress in this and hope it gets resolved, but I am afraid I will not trust Xbox Live again and anything I do on Live will be updating my games and occasionally buying dlc. Thanks for everybody who read this far and good luck to those who are also going through the same right now.

Most difficult thing you have ever done....

......in a video game. For me it is between Ninja Gaiden 2 and Zelda Ocarina of Time. For Ninja Gaiden 2 it is obviously beating Master Ninja mode. Im not much of a show-off, but its hard not to when it comes to this. Few can unlock the difficulty let alone beat it. I did it within a week, without even breaking my controller. Ocarina of Time is a little strange I know. I actually have probably beaten the game well over a hundred times. Ive never been bored with the game and can play it over and over and still feel the same way about it. Ive done many kinds of playthrough ranging from speed runs, to no death runs, 3 heart runs, no rupee runs, and many more. The one the takes the cake as one of the most difficult things ive done is the No-hit run. Which is where you go through the game without taking any damage of any kind. At the point I started, I had already played through the game numerous times and managed to take little damage in other playthroughs, when I realised that I got the idea for a no hit run. I had to restart a total of2 times. First wasInside Jabu-Jabu against the boss of the dungeon. Second was sadly, a random keese in the Fire Temple. Water Temple and Fire Temple were both equally stressful though. Anyway out of the many gaming achievements of mine those stand out as the hardest. Anybody have any they would like to share?

Magical Girl Fan Club

A friend informed me that a group about 1 girl might not attract alot of people. So i changed it to the Magical Girl Fan Club which still includes Pururin. There already exists a 54 member one but ours is different. We acknowledge wolf girls as magical and the bigger group doesnt. That makes a better so join us on facebook if you want.

Cult of Pururin

I just started the Cult of Pururin on facebook. So if your on facebook and love Pururin than join the Cult of Pururin. It would make her sohappy. If you do not know who Pururin is, dont be afraid to ask!

Quit Xbox Live

After years of achievement hunting and nonstop online play, I have quit Xbox Live. I think I can continue my holy quest to defend the world now. Cant let that holy sword go rusty now can I?
