How to Prevent getting Hacked/Scammed
Warning: How To Prevent Getting hacked/Scammed


1. Part of "staff" PM's you for you Password.
Scammers take hours getting this pm ready to make it as real as possible. But if they ask for your Password dont give it to them. The Real Staff here doesn't need your password to do anything on your profile.

2. Ripping off
You really want this lvl 50 Cursed Snivvy and the person Trading it is asking for 12 Shadow Swampert lvl 1000 if you give into that your most likely dumb. You just got Ripped off, or scammed.

3. Team Training Password
Don't give your Team training account password to a person you don't know. Try to have close friends or people you've known for a long time to be on your team.

4.Email Password
If your Email's "Staff" Contacts you on the game don't give you your Email's Password either.

6. Create a strong password
A password that is "Pokemon1234" is just too easy, it would be really easy to guess. Make an alphanumeric password like this: Lions!67!69!89
Now breaking down the password you will see that it means nothing to anyone except me, the letters are just random ones i picked out, the exclamation marks are for added security, and the numbers are just long and hard to guess, this password would be impossible for anyone to guess so your account will be safe.

7. Never give your password to anyone
Anyone asking for your password claiming to be staff, or asking for your password so you can enter a tournament is scamming you, so don't give it to them. Alternatively if someone asks you to change your email address on the account to something else, don't do it, this means they can then use the password recovery system on your account.

8. Don't join accounts
If someone sends you a message on the game asking to join accounts, then they're most likely trying to scam you, so don't do it.

9. Check The Url
Always check that the url is one of the following two [you must login to view links] or [you must login to view links] if your not on one of those two links, most likely the site is fake, and will obtain your password if you login.

10. Changing Account's E-mail
Some users will message you ingame, telling you that if you change your game account's e-mail address to something they tell you, and hit "Send Password", then you will become a Moderator, or will get some sort of bonus. Don't do this, as they will then get your password.

nice thread (:

Not all legends are about victory. Some are about struggle, finding out who you are and your reason for being.
