Microsoft's Online Security Sucks

Alex · Mar 13, 2014

I just received another email about unusual sign-in activity and that I should change my password. This just happened last week too. What's the deal? I don't have anything important tied to my Microsoft account (unique password, no saved credit cards), but this shit is really annoying. Has anyone else been having consistent issues with this?

I hear that Microsoft is going around calling people to remotely fix this problem. Just wait to be contacted and comply with the technician.

They are just detecting your a hipster.

Did it come with a helpful link to click to sign in to your account? You should click that. Lookslegit

It's definitely legit from Microsoft. The links all go toSign in to your Microsoft account, which is their website. I can also see access attempt logs in my account and see that an IP in Houston kept trying to access my account. Must be Ham.

Is your login something like[email protected]/* <![CDATA[ */!function(t,e,r,n,c,a,p){try{t=document.currentScript||function(){for(t=document.getElementsByTagName('script'),e=t.length;e--

if(t[e].getAttribute('data-cfhash'))return t[e]}();if(t&&(c=t.previousSibling)){p=t.parentNode;if(a=c.getAttribute('data-cfemail')){for(e='',r='0x'+a.substr(0,2)|0,n=2;a.length-n;n+=2)e+='%'+('0'+('0x'+a.substr(n,2)^r).toString(16)).slice(-2);p.replaceChild(document.createTextNode(decodeURIComponent(e)),c)}p.removeChild(t)}}catch(u){}}()/* ]]> */? Aka one that billions of people named Alex may try to log in as?
