   Player Chronicle -- Posted on Jul 13 2008

   Well I haven't been on XBL in about a week because Ive been so busy lately, and I was recently asked by one of my friends if I changed my gamertag. Of course you all should know that it costs freakin EDIT:$10 to do that, so I would never do that.
   
   I decided to sign in today to find out what was up. When I turned on my Xbox, it said my gamertag had been recovered onto another system...and I just thought, "Who's house did I do this at?" Then I finally came to the conclusion that I haven't recovered my gamertag anywhere in months.
   
   So I tried recovering it back, and it said my gamertag (ZMaine07) does not exist on XBL!
   
   wtf?
   
   It definately exists! There's something wrong here...so it asked me if I wanted to try using my email address, so I put in the email address and password, and it comes back password incorrect!
   
   wtf?!
   
   I only use ONE password for EVERYTHING, how could I forget it?
   
   Ok, so about this time, I pick up the phone and dial 1-800-4MY-XBOX, and shortly you are greeted with the familiar Xbox noise and, "Hi, I'm Mike" (RRoD victims will definitely know what this sounds like) So "Mike" transfers me to some guy in India (which is really annoying, because he said his name was Shawn, and we all know it's not) and I told him the problem, then he asked for my info, I told him my email, and then he asked me my secret security question, which was, "Who was your childhood friend?"
   
   WTF??!!
   
   I NEVER use that one, so I had no answer. He said it was no problem and he just got the rest of my info. He then told me that the gamertag ZMaine07 was changed to redtrgfokkiojyu.
   
   WTF?!?!?!?!?!
   
   Who's gamertag is like that?! Seriously! I couldn't think of a gamertag like that if I tried!
   
   So I told him that I definitely didn't change it, then I said hold on a second, let me try signing into my email on my computer. So I got on the computer, went to hotmail.com and tried it again... Password Incorrect....
   
   HORSE SHIT!!!!
   
   So then I told him that my email has been hacked into somehow because I definitely know my own password, and my security question has nothing to do with childhood friends, then he told me to goto support.live.com and ask for help resetting my password and if I don't receive word within 24 hours or it doesn't work, I'm supposed to call him back.
   
   So in the meantime, I can't play my games until I get this crapola figured out. I better be able to change my gamertag back for free and I'd better still have all my gamer points, or I'm gonna stab some jaws.
   
   There should be a way for them to track who's recovering what gamertag and where, I bet there is, because what do they do about this situation? Can I take legal action? Whoever took my gamertag now has access to my debit card, so I'm probably getting charged for a shit ton of stuff I don't want.

   When you get your GT back, and when Microsoft won't change your name for free (because they're tycoons), have everyone on your friends list file a complaint against you. If you get too many complaints in one day you get to change your GT for free.

   Hey man, you are on my friends list, and you are in fact redtrgfokkiojyu and also your location is tagged as Hungary.... and you have 3640 Gamerscore. You have 3 Arcade games as your most recently played games, so possibly he spent some of your money. Also, for the record its $10 for gamertag change. Here's the link to your account on Xbox.com http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?pp=0&GamerTag=redtrgfokkiojyu
   Hope this helps broski!
