Can we please increase the security key to 8+ Characters - My account seems to be targeted around 50 times a day and they will guess the 6 characters eventually.....
Yeah finally they sped up everything so I have now got two step authenticator
I agree with this, the only issue is that it's easilly bypassed with a Proxy.
Side note, I have exactly the same problem. They try to fish me every day, try to get into my account, but they can't with 2step auth. Just annoying after a long day to find your account blocked because of too many password attempts...
I have had someone repeat to hack my account. I have changed my password. Can you block these people?
someone has also attempted multiple times to hack my account. I am getting constant reset password codes and have to go through anoying security checks because of these attempts. I guess there is nothing I can do about that but receiving constant rest codes is concerning. I don't know what to do unless microsoft can trace the ip and shut it down although I doubt it is something they would do
