    Can my account be taken from me? Situation:

    I know original recoveries, and current recoveries, ISP, etc.
    Most of the CC info is mine and predates the other guy's
    The person knows current recoveries (in place for roughly 1.5-2 years)
    The e-mail on account is mine.
    We both know the password.
    JAG/Authenticator is disabled.

    I trust this dude we've met on RS and have been online friends for over half a decade, but still I see this account as mine in a way that I wouldn't consider sharing it if it could be compromised in 5 years time it is kind of worthless to me atm.

    If you just gave someone your username and password, they can't recover it.

    It depends how long the guy is playing on it for. My second main account was given to me by a friend. I think it was 1-2 years later of paying for the membership and playing on it constantly that I was able to secure the account for myself. That, or he forgot some important information. I think it's in your best interest to keep your account to yourself.

    If you're the original owner of the account you can always recover it no matter what.

    If you played on this account a lot and you IP address havent been changed, I think that you will be able to recover it.

    You're getting in to murky waters. You will be able to recover it no matter what; just don't do so with malicious intent like taking what he put on the account.

    This,

    accounts are always recoverable, all you need is first few passwords. Literally.

    If you gave the account to him just let him keep it.. arent your friends worth more than that...

    I would assume you could take the account back since you created it.. not the right thing to do though.

    Right, the title was intended for a different content of the topic. What I was going to mention then erase it is that we shared this acc for many years, alternating on who trains what 99 basically, except that it seems that recently a third person (unconfirmed) has entered the picture in using the account. I am/was worried about this person.

    I'm pretty sure that's his intention since he posted this.

    If you gave him your account, why would you take it from him?
    You can still recover your account, but it's still messed up.

    Your lending it if you plan on taking it back. Make sure you tell him so he doesn't put anything to expensive on it

    It depends on what information they give Jagex. Sometimes Jagex is flawed and might give the account to the wrong hands. Wish you the best of luck.
