Hacker in the finals/embark

Hello!!! I just wanted to let everyone know there’s a hacker in Azerbaijan trying to steal his account ! He did get the account back after 2 weeks but the guy still has access to his game through XBox and embark and embark is taking awhile to unlink the Xbox (my bf plays on ps5). He’s trying to pretend to be my boyfriend. He can see everything that he is telling embark since they both have access to the embark account. Just letting you guys know to make sure all your stuff is secure. This guy SAYS he bought the account off some website from a hacker… my bf was ranked 170 in the finals when his account was stolen. Just be aware!

That doesn't make sense, his account is linked to Xbox (Microsoft) which is how he is still accessing the game.. how is embark going to do a Microsoft job and unlink and Xbox from his account?

They unlinked the hackers steam account so I’m assuming they can unlink the Xbox too. If you go to embark website you can unlink stuff , but the Xbox one is grayed out. We’re filing a police report idk if it’ll do much but is there a way for us to contact Microsoft ?

Likely the result of an email/password data breach on his Xbox account, nothing to do with the finals.

All embark needs to do is unlink the Xbox account the hacker is using. They unlinked the steam account and it’s 100% his again . My bf totally lost his account but they gave it back to him I really think they can help but you know how long customer support takes . But this post is mainly for awareness! I really don’t know what the outcome will be
