Doing a Google search will get you the articles, but I'm not going to link to them because one of them outlines how to supposedly hack an XBox Live account.

Interesting. I was curious when Iggy's friend said that MS had acknowledged that there have been issues with what his friend was experiencing. I think it's funny that people think the Live accounts are somehow hack proof. Considering how hackers have thwarted other types of supposedly hack proof things, I am not too surprised if they have found a way to do so. Considering that credit card numbers are attached to many of these accounts, it certainly makes for a strong target.
