How to Stop XBox Mods

Xbox Live is an online community that allows gamers from every corner of the world to connect in multiplayer games and compete with one another. Unfortunately, a small percentage of these gamers choose to use Xbox Live as a sort of “hacking” playground, and modify their Xbox consoles and games to provide them with an unfair advantage or cause harm to the gameplay of others. While you may not be able to stop other gamers from modifying their consoles directly, you can play a vital part in the fight against "mods" by reporting these players to Microsoft through the Xbox Live report system. If a player is found to have violated the Live terms of service, their account could be terminated and their access lost.
