What if you..

buy a runescape account, and you change the recovs, would the seller be able to retrieve it back, or are you safe from not being scammed?

 

If they've ever had recoveries, or members they can always get it back.

They supply old recovs, previous passwords, date of creation, and membership # they'll get it back.
Be cautious when buying an account.

 

There are tons more ways to recover then from questions, your not at all safe just from recovery questions.

 

even if you completely changed the recov questions to something new, and the original owner or seller wouldnt know them?

 

Regardless of how much stuff you change, they still are able to recover if they were so inclined.

 

You can always retrieve if you've had previous passwords and agreement numbers.

 

Simply no, you are not completely safe. Remember to always trade with caution and if it is an account, do a test recovery before any payment to make sure you can recover it and they have given you correct information.

 

You can recover an account if you made it regardless of whats changed, it's all about finding honest people around and thats the truth.

 

Old recoveries > New recoveries.
