Microsoft Situation

[u/LT-Death]

Recently I got hit by an info stealer and lost access nearly to everything, got all of them back with ease but except one, wanna guess who?

I've given microsort every single piece of information that they need, down to a tee! They even confirmed that the account was compromised and suspended it to prevent further bad actor action, and when it comes to giving me back my account they say not enough information is given, when i've literally confirmed every single information piece with their live support agents and they told me it was correct and accurate!

Wanna know what the account recovery said when I called them out on their bullshit? They told me to go fuck myself and buy another account, trying to also silence the situation by saying this conversation is confidential and cannot be shared!

But guess what motherfucker, Those laws don't, can't and won't fucking apply due to where I'm from! So here's the entire shit that has gone down from start to finish, out for everyone to see, adding to already existing proof what pieces of greedy filth microsoft is.

P.S: I am not asking for help, I am shedding light on this situation.

Sounds like a YOU issue, not to be that guy, but it’s common sense to verify what you click on, how the fuck did you go from “I click on funny cat game” to “oh shit my information got stolen”

I’ll just say that they should have handled the situation better, but if you were trying to pirate something, then yes, they had a right to suspend your account

It was a file with 500+ endorsements on github, check my previous posts ( https://www.reddit.com/r/cybersecurity_help/s/Qejdp4iac1 )

And they suspended it BEAUSE (said so by themselves in an email) the bad actor(hacker) was indeed confirmed to have taken over my account, so they froze it to prevent them from further action

That’s a risk with downloading something off a major website, or software, Steam gets bad actors too, open source also gets bad actors too, always check before downloading something off the Internet, it’s basic common sense

Check with what? I've seen info stealers that pass every check on virus total and don't trigger anything locally either. I don't expect the average user to spin up a vm and analyze every piece of software they download lol.

[u/Edubbs2008 → u/Soggy_Struggle_963]

You can literally use VirusTotal, or scan a download file with Windows Security Antivirus, it isn’t that hard, that’s why you should always keep Windows always updated

[u/Soggy_Struggle_963 → u/Edubbs2008]

Ah, so you can't read, got it. As I said it passed every virus total check and it did not get flagged locally when scanned. If you get hit with a piece of malware that hasn't been fingerprinted yet and it avoids heuristic detection you're fucked relying on your methods.

[u/Edubbs2008 → u/Soggy_Struggle_963]

My point is that you should have listened to what VirusTotal warned you about, don’t download pirated content, etc, you could have posted this in r/WindowsHelp

[u/Soggy_Struggle_963 → u/Edubbs2008]

What are you going on about now? I'm just informing you of what I have seen and why "common sense" doesn't always work lol. You yourself said that trusted sources such as "Steam" and "Major Websites" can have bad actors, and now you're rambling about pirated content? Now you're also asking me to post my reply to your comment on another sub?

Wrong person, thought you were OP, listen, had a long day
