Some Xbox Live users targeted in online phishing scam

BBC News says: "Xbox Live users are being urged to check their accounts after some say they were scammed by a fake email.

The phishing attack sent users to a fake website where they were asked to input personal details like addresses, emails and credit card details."

'fake website where they were asked to input personal details like addresses, emails and credit card details'

Anyone who falls for these scams deserves to have their details stolen.

EVERY SINGLE F*CKING COMPANY STATES "WE WILL NOT ASK YOU FOR YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS, CREDIT CARD DETAILS, LOGIN DETAILS VIA EMAIL"

You may think its a bit harsh but in all fairness, you can't teach common sense.

I was wondering why this hadn't appeared on here sooner....it was on the front page of the Sun.

I know it wasn't hacked but still......

PS3....MASSIVE thing about it

Xbox 360...hardly nothing on it.

BlmThug5301d ago

Your comparing the PSN hacking which brought down the whole service for more than a month to a few stupid people who use fake sites and got scammed.

DebateMaster5301d ago

the hack didnt bring psn down u moron. do people still belive this pos info? Sony brought it down so the coul investigate and improve their average security

MyNameIsNotRick5301d ago

"Xbox 360...hardly nothing on it"-well, maybe cus there isn't anything to it. Do you really believe that if/when live is actually hacked and thousands of customers become vulnerable (through no fault of their own) that thousands of ps3 fan boys wont collectively jizz in their pants? Believe me...they will.

Course theres something to it....it's news

Remember a couple of days ago, the PS3 goes down for like an hour and N4G is flooded with "downtime" articles, some suggesting another hack..........basicaly looking for any little bits of info to put Sony and the PS3 in a negativelight, yet something like this which has found it's way even in todays newspapers dosen't even get a say on here...

It's still bad anyway you look at it so don't try and justify it

JellyJelly5301d ago

@WhiteLightning - Lol. Nice try.

dark-hollow5301d ago

It's a global conspiracy against sony!

I thought everybody knew that by now!

M1chl5301d ago

People which got scammed, has to be incredible stupid and they all deserve it. How inteligent you have to be, to sign your details to uknown pages?? Seriously...

You forgot to add "thank God" at the end of the headline.

tomr29923276d ago

Indeed... Praise the Lord!

V0MIT_M0NSTER3276d ago

So glad that they won't mess with Banjo anymore.

-Foxtrot3274d ago

So you wouldn't want a proper Banjo-Threeie, Jade Empire or Kameo 2...really?

AZRoboto3274d ago

Or Crimson Skies. That was the shiz

FallenAngel19843275d ago

It's a shame we can't get another Banjo-Kazooie game

-Foxtrot3274d ago

Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.

PhoenixUp3275d ago

Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own

AZRoboto3274d ago

I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?

darthv723275d ago

Blinx needs to return if at least to show up Bubsy.

ninsigma3274d ago

Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!

Paytaa3274d ago

Jet Set Radio Future was only on Xbox. Fantastic game. Even better than Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast in my opinion. Such a good soundtrack too

ninsigma3274d ago

Game was beast and deserves to come back on current gen. And hell yeah plus one for that soundtrack!

Review: Table Top Racing: World Tour (Xbox One) by The Gamerscore Whores

Without a doubt, one of our highlights from EGX Rezzed 2016 was Table Top Racing. It was almost a classic love tale…”As soon as we locked eyes… (enter mushy crap here…)” – We think you get the picture. It just reminded us of a time where gaming was much less complicated and way more colourful, however at the time the game was only due to be released on the PS4… That’s not a bad thing. It just mean’t that being my primary console of choice is Xbox One, we wouldn’t get to play this any time soon as the majority of my games and friends reside in the Microsoft ecosystem – so when we got word this was getting a release on Xbox One, we immediately put our hands up and said “Yes, Please!”.
