6000 Xbox point accounts...what's the deal

[Don Flamenco]

These pop up on ebay every once in a while.  Anyone ever buy one?   Is it legit? 

[Vizzys]

they are usually bought with stolen credit cards

[Don Flamenco]

that answers that

but um, I found a seriously legit site that sells them for $10 a piece.  Nothing I wanna buy right now, but man, $10 for $75 worth of points

anything selling pre-set accounts with points is far from "seriously legit"

HTH

When I see it on Amazon, then I'll believe it's legit.

sorry, meant they're verisign secured-- it's a chinese ebay/amazon kind of site where people can list stuff.  So nobody but paypal ever sees my info.  That's what I meant by legit.  As opposed to ebay where people sell the accounts for $40. 

I was reading around and yeah, they totally just hand you some stranger's live account with 6000 points in it and the kicker-- their credit card info is still on the account.  No thanks!!

some distinguished black fellows tried to steal my account and do this. but my account didn't have enough money in it so I caught them.  bu bu xbox is so secure, not if theyre hacking accounts this easily.

I think you have get social-engineer'd for this to happen.
