okay so i live in the united states. so say i buy an oG account from someone in the United Kingdom, could i put ms points on it? also, when you tag swap something, why do u sometimes get banned from doing so? and also when someone says that u might get turpoed doing it, how do the people taking you account know that its avaliable? thanks
1. You can add points to any international account with a Paypal deposit.
2. Console bans happen because the gamertag you buy is "jacked" and the original owner is active, he calls in his tag for investigation and evidence shows you bought a gamertag, they ban your console and your main gold active account.
3. Turber's preview the gamertag on Xbox.com secretly and if the account has its online status public they can immediately tell if you are swapping. Most of the time they turbo after the sale is made because people are that nieve. Turbing accounts requires near to no effort, you can just leave an application running that spams the availability and once any account sees that a gamertag is available that account is the only one that can claim it for a certain amount of hours.
Turbing an account is extremely frowned upon because you are interfering with a transaction, if you spend over $150+ and the tag gets turbod when you try swap the seller would not refund and you just lost your money.
