So when I opened this site the step 1 asked me what PSN code you want? Which I am sure they know that they are Xbox live codes, not Playstation. So, I simply thought to get out of this website but I am gonna try some codes anyways because I haven’t found yet a single working Xbox live code generator. So I clicked one of the coupons that says Get Xbox Live code but was directed to spam page asking me to complete a survey and quite other links opened on their own. So here is a piece of advice if you are looking for these type of paid things that comes free then you should have a good anti-virus installed or else you may end up running your pc.

Outcome: Fake website with some spammy link embedded.

The website looked real and pretty professional. It says are you looking for free Xbox Live codes? So I thought of giving it a try. I decided to enter the generator and it asked me to share the website on social media to continue. This hint was good enough to give up on this website as I am looking for free codes and not some promotion stuff.

The website seems pretty easy and understandable. No spammy links and ads. The first gave the description of the Xbox live code generator its features and how it works. So, I thought of giving this website the last try and see if they give free codes or not. I clicked on getting Free Xbox code and I was redirected to a new page which looked like the image below.

I am sure this will also redirect me to some survey site which will not reveal any Xbox Live code. But still, give it a try so I choose my country and entered my username. And as expected got redirected to a survey site.

Outcome: Will redirect you to a survey site.
