    Not really a console modding issue have you tried to call Xbox support?

    Moved to a more relevant forum. Not a console modding issue.

    Don't call Xbox CS as it's nothing to do with them as only your COD 4 stats are affected and not your gamertag as a whole.
    Try Activision support but from what I've heard of similar situation they are usually unable to fix it.

    Just out of curiosity what were the circumstances leading up to it happening. Did he ask for any account info.
    Also is your XP showing as a minus number

    Apex??

    I've been in two lobbies the past two days with with 4 or 5 apex lads.
    Fcuking boosting for headshots. What goes around comes around.

    Edit : I'm sorry David, their name was actually "Aztec"
    I do apologise.

    Not big on the hacking scene, but it would strike me that your Xbox would be the problem rather than your account. Sounds similar to other cod hacks in the past, which propagated to other machines through direct contact. Find another Xbox to test your account, then factory reset your unit if its fine.

    This is complete nonsense. What you're talking about would require the console to have downloaded some form of virus through Xbox Live.
    The other "hacks" you are talking about made a message appear on screen after you had een knifed by an "infected" player and the same would then happen to whom ever you knifed in the future.

    My account was hacked in the same way, just from playing with some hackers I think. Never gave any of my details to anyone. Can't rank up, and have negative experience. COD4 was one of my favourite games, played it regularly up until about 6 months ago when I got hacked. Hate stupid hackers, ruining everyone's else enjoyment

    I came on today and the hack or what ever seem to ware of they just unranked me im enjoying it again :D

    How are hackers doing this, isn't XBL a secure platform?

    It is, the games aren't always though, which is the problem


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 115 ✭✭DavidMelv


    Its nothing to do with the console Activision didnt implement right security measures to the game.

    Got hacked on this yet again.. Such a good game ruined

    COD4 has been getting hacked for years now. It's a pitty activistion or microsoft don't try and catch these guys and ban them from future COD games and Xbox. My brother got hacked a few years ago during an SnD match. If you killed someone you got -999999 score and deranked you to 1 with no way to rank up again. We left the lobby and I haven't played it since. Easily the best COD game and I've been tempted to get it on PC as it still works fine on there.
