    How to protect your League of Legends account and other accounts

    Protect your league of legends account
    Learn how to secure your league of legends account or any other account, and learn more about account security.

    Everyone knows the horrible feeling of losing one of your account’s. We don’t want that to happen to you so we've prepared a list of things to secure your league of legend account as also other accounts.

    Account security is one of the most important things to think of when choosing a username and password, sometimes your accounts can contact sensitive personal data. It doesn't matter what website you register on you have to be careful of giving out your information, even your email account can be sold to mailing lists and spammed.

    Tips for all accounts, this is a list to take steps to secure account details.

    • Use different passwords and even usernames for different accounts. Don’t use short passwords or easy to guess passwords like your birthday, the shorter your password is the easier it is to hack with a brute force cracker.
    • Use Phone verification system where possible, one of the easiest way to recover accounts is phone text message verification.
    • Don’t give out your personal data to every website that asks for it, think hard if it’s worth the risk and how big the risk is.
    • Use email forwarding, you can setup a email to forward your emails to your mail email account. If there’s too much spam you can change your account’s email to a new one and remove the forwarding.
    • Use an anti-spam email service, there are many services that help create emails instantly for each account.
    • Don’t save your data all in one place, if your computer gets hacked your data will be safe on a removable flash drive, don’t forget to have a backup for maximum security. It’s possible to password protect your flash dick as well. You can also manually write down user-data, be sure nobody else has access to it.
    If you follow all of the above suggestions, you should be completely safe from hackers or forgetting your details. Specifically for League of legends there are a few things to keep in mind as well regarding account security. Your league of legends account cannot make purchases without external payment methods so you don’t have to worry about un-approved purchases. Securing your League of legends account is important because many people spend hundreds of dollars on skins and RP, losing it is a big deal.

    Here are our account safety recommendations for your league of legends account as well as safety in regards to boosting. We care greatly about our customers and losing your account is a bad thing for us as well. If you follow all the below tips you should have no problem keeping your account for life.
    • Don’t use the same username as your IGN and don’t use the same passwords as other accounts.
    • Make sure to connect your account to an email that won’t be hacked and is phone verified. Your password can’t be changed without email verification.
    • Change your password at least 2 times a year, it can be as simple as “GPoranges4op” or even “K4tarinaneedsaNerf456$”, the longer it is the safer it is. Because league of legends has a captcha its not very easy to brute force crack passwords.
    • When buying boost change the password to one only you and us know. After your boost is finished change your password again so you are the only one with access to your account.
    • In the event it’s too late and you lose your email and password there is still a possible way to recover your account. You should try to remember any details you can about your account such as when you bought things, how much you spent, what your PayPal transaction ids are. Contact riot support telling them the situation and they will be more than willing to help you recover your account, they just need you to prove that it was your account and they will have it returned to you as soon as possible.

    If you follow all of the above tips there is no way you will ever lose your account. We hope you found this information useful in any way, and you continue to browse the internet safely.
