BEWARE 360 owners...we are under attack!
"PANDA"LERT "PANDA"LERT Yesterday at about 8:20pm EST My XBL [Xbox Live] account got hacked. Not once did I ever think this was possible but, like always I was wrong. I am taking this time out to warn you of the threat that this poses.
This XBL msg only activates if someone on your Friends' List falls prey to it. The msg you get says "Go here to get 1600 MS points! It works and msg me if it doesn't!" [I'm paraphasing mind you...] next it shows a site that is..get1600mspoints4free.t35.com. If you type this in, it redirects you to a page that is identical to the XBOX log in page. If you...at this point type in your information you are screwed! that is right screwed! It will take your password, lock you out of your Windows Live ID and if your credit card/debit card is attached to it, well cancel those cards because you are....in serious danger! At that point this hack spams all your friends on your list with the same lethal message but with your Gamertag.
This scam preys on your creditability and is a travesty! Do not look for a quick fix from Microsoft either. In order for them to fix the solution they will of course establish your identity to you....which apparently takes several days to do. On the sad side of this for the most part they can offer you to rename your Gamertag. You will lose your friends list and whatever MSpoints you had before the swipe. Hopefully your Gamerscore and achievements will be in tact....[When my salvation comes I will be able to confirm all this to you all]
So as a final warning please! PLEASE if you respect what I do here, if you get this kind of message just DELETE it. You'll be happier you listened to me....
