@SomethingElse Right? I'm confused, as well as you are, how it got from a stupid comment, a joking reply, then straight into grammar lessons for the young. Pure confusion and laughs lol

Jan 21st 2012 1:34PM (Joystiq)I'm not gonna sit here and go through the list of guns that I've really shot in my life (and I'm also not going to brag about them because they were .22's while messing around during a hunting trip) because your borderline-incomprehensible post may roll in saying "yieah rite, you dont shoot guns you dont no how." So, hopefully, from reading this, you'll get an answer.

Jan 9th 2012 4:02PM (Joystiq)I was playing some Battlefield 3 when I got kicked off of LIVE and when I tried to sign back in, it said my account info was wrong and/or had recently changed. So, I immediately checked my bank account online and within 3 minutes, they had charged $130 worth of Microsoft Points. I froze my bank account and then managed to recover my account on my own. When I had recovered it, all of the points were gone, every last one. But my purchase history lists nothing as purchased...
The best part is when I contacted Microsoft; I called up and told the guy what happened very clearly and (using his EXACT words here), the guy said "So, uh. Well...So, someone got your STUFF and then bought STUFF on YOUR account?" ...REALLY? STUFF? I was so shocked by the amount of stupidity of those last words, I was completely speechless.
So, he gets my info and say "Well, your account and stuff's gonna be unavailable to you for the next month or two, so, uh...yeah. Alright, bye." And hangs up. 5 minutes later, he calls back and says "Hey, I forgot to click send on the report. I need your info again....what's your name?"
And then he hung up. They never locked my account, nothing. But I did get an email from both Microsoft and my bank saying they researched it and found out who did it. Got all of my money back, never lost my account, and got a few months of Xbox LIVE for free.
Weirdest part was how all of my points just vanished (all 12,005 of them) without anything being registered on my Purchase History.
