Erneut spricht SOE auf der offiziellen Seite (fast schon regelmäßig) eine Warnung bezüglich der Preisgabe von persönlichen Accountdaten aus. Jeder Spieler wird dazu aufgefordert seine Zugangsdaten geheim zu halten und somit dem Diebstahl oder anderem vorzubeugen.

    Keep Your Characters Safe!

    Account theft isn´t isolated only to those who choose to trade or share their station accounts (ignoring the EULA!) As the internet and online gaming population grows, so does the cesspool of scammers.

    There are a variety of ways in which people will attempt to gain access to your account, and the list grows everyday. Fear not, there are simple tips to ensure that your account is protected. Keep in mind these worn-out (but useful!) words of wisdom:

    Sharing your account information is never a good idea.
    Gamers have heard the advice before, yet a lot of people still opt to share their account information with close friends. Having a guildmate complete a quest for you while you´re sleeping may seem mostly harmless, but bad things can happen. While it doesn´t always end in catastrophe, you could log back in with a new last name like "Lovetrollslongtime" or something slightly worse which might result in a banning. It´s not always obvious, malicious attacks that cause good accounts to go bad!

    I´m sure we´ve all heard the fateful stories of guildbanks emptied and outfit members booted. Sadly, this is a direct result of sharing account information. Not only do you run the risk of virtual strangers reeking havoc on all you´ve worked hard for, but you make it difficult for SOE´s customer service staff to investigate and resolve issues.
