Skype tech support doesn’t even know what’s going on with your account and why it has been blocked in the first place. Skype tech support is vulnerable to social engineering, and Microsoft is perfectly OK with that. These codes are used for password restore, and the hacker can just guess the code without an access to your email account.

This post describes my fruitless effort to convince Microsoft employees that their service is vulnerable, and the humiliation one has to go through should one’s account be blocked by a hacker. Scaring report which no one seems caring much:
