XBOX LIVE MODDERS/HACKERS THAT THREATEN

Okay Ive been a member of Xbox for some time and have had my fair share of dealing with MODDERS in video games, mainly GTA IV. In the past Ive had to replace my XBOX twice, both times costing me a fair amount of money for problems I could not prevent. Both times my console was replaced it was due to MODDERS freezing my XBOX and damaging it. Ive honestly had the last straw of all these MODDERS/HACKERS who THREATEN on XBOX LIVE, Ive submitted player reviews, Ive filed complaints, Ive even sent emails and called XBOX SUPPORT but not one thing has been done to date. Every time I come in contact with an XBOX LIVE Representative they feed me the same stuff I already know by just "Filing complaints and Submitting player reviews" But it still has yet to do anything, I still run into these modding goofs about 99.9% of the time. Now Im not going to stop playing a game that I absolutely enjoy just because of these people but its ridiculous. Now tonight I am playing GTA IV and was recently in a Free Mode game doing the activities the game provides me with. I decide to retaliate to a couple players that are killing me and when I team up with another to kill them I get a message from this angry player telling me they are going to hack my account/router information causing me to buy a new XBOX and router. I wont get too much into details but he continues telling me in 24 hours I wont have a connection and will need a new XBOX entirely. I have this players [REMOVED - DO NOT POST OTHER GTS], and I also have physical proof via pictures of such threats. I want something done because frankly Im tired of these goofs ruining my and others fun. Now Ive been threatened many times before that my account will be hacked and whatnot and ofcourse I have peace of mind knowing that no such thing can happen but regardless I want these people taken care of whether it means an account ban or suspension. For the XBOX LIVE SUPPORT I will gladly provide the pictures, date/time of this problem. Im not worried about everything this player threatened me with, Im just displeased with the lack of customer service being provided to me. 

You aren't allowed to 'name and shame' on the forum and reporting people here is a waste of your time as the Enforcement Team do not read this section.

Only by reporting them through your console will the correct people get to see your report. Here is how to file a report www.xbox.com/.../Abuse. Pick System Tampering as the reason.

There is nothing another player can physically do to another players console over XBL. The only thing another player can do to another player is flood their IP address, this is called a DDoS attack and takes their entire network down, not just XBL, and can be resolved by contacting your ISP and getting a new IP address. If that is being done then you need to involve law enforcement as these attacks are illegal.

If your console is freezing it is for a completely unrelated reason and you should read how to resolve it in the following post: My console freezes Error

*

It is against forum rules to name and shame other players here, regardless of what they may or may not have done. Please use the tools on your console to file a complaint against the offender so the XBL PET can review the complaint and take the necessary actions. 

*

Alternatively you should also block communications with the offender, then adjust your online status to friends only. Now the offender can no longer send you messages or see when or where you are on XBL.

The plain hard fact is that modders are ruining many multiplayer games on Xbox Live- L4D2, Halo Reach, etc.

Sometimes it's hard to tell whether someone is modding or just that good and this too is an issue- but when a player is far and above all other players, and especially when their Xbox gamerscore is low (as in under 1000 or close to), well, they are modding and it affects the game, the outcome, your stats, and ultimately your fun.

I report 'em and leave it up to the companies.  Microsoft and others (i.e. Bungie, Valve, Rockstar Games, etc) need to take a harder line towards them, but they probably don't want to lose their business, so they don't- and that blows.  They need to ban their Xbox consoles, but also their credit card numbers, there names, and any other IDs that distinguish them from others.

I remember one time when I was playing Halo 3 and some guy threatened to hack my account. I invited him to party chat and offered him free Live Gold for a year if he could give me proof he had played on my account from his Xbox within one month.



I never heard back from him.
