Purchase of an Xbox service subscription with a request to provide my login credentials | Questions and answers among users

I purchased a 12-month subscription to the XBOX ultimate service. The seller is asking me for the login credentials to my Microsoft account to activate the service (an account that, incidentally, contains personal sensitive data that goes beyond the XBOX service). Obviously I refused and left negative feedback because I believe the request is not legitimate, let alone the type of sale.The seller, for his part, says that the wording “digital activation” in the listing was meant to imply that “he would do the activation” and not that he would provide a code (a key which, incidentally, is what other sellers of similar products provide). I contacted EBay customer service by phone, and they limited themselves to advising me to wait for the delivery deadline to expire, a delivery that will not happen since the seller will never ship anything, as shown in the message exchange. I’m wondering, apart from the fact that I will NEVER give my credentials to a third party, is it even possible to sell something like this? I believe not.And what can I do to report behavior that I consider improper and speed up the process without having to wait 20 days?
