    Safe to put purchased account on personal Jagex Account?

    I've been out of the market scene for a bit, but I'm wondering if it's safe to put a purchased account on your personal Jagex Account?

    Does it make any difference if the account has an unregistered email address? Obviously all accounts are able to be recovered, and let's say it does get recovered, would it affect the other accounts on the Jagex Launcher?

    I believe I read something of the entire Jagex account getting locked or something. Just wanting to make sure first, prior to linking the purchased account.

    Cheers

    It has been confirmed that in the scenario where an account added to a Jagex account is successfully recovered by the original owner, the entire Jagex account will be banned.

    From what I've seen, they deactivate your jagex acc if the account you linked is suspected to be stolen/recovered

    First of all buying an account that is legacy (even if no email set) can always be recovered because there is a recovery system for legacy accounts and jagex launcher accounts that are imported as jagex launcher accounts. "No email set" accounts are a myth, and are very unsafe imo because whoever worked on that account knows the login info and original password and the owner & worker can recover those accounts.

    Consider purchasing an "originally created jagex launcher account", they have no recovery process (non-recoverable) and then you also have it seperated from your own jagex laucnher account. As always, only buy of reputable people and not of random people on sythe/eldorado/playerauctions

    Can confirm. I bought one of those unregistered accounts and almost exactly a year later, the account was recovered. It was associated with a Jagex launcher account and the whole jagex account was disabled. I appealed and reached out to support and they told me to kick rocks. This was from well-reviewed seller too so I’m definitely bummed about this. I have another account that I also had bought and is currently active but I’m worried that they’ll now look into that account and ban it too or that this account will be recovered too. The seller for the 2nd account claims they are a company and wouldn’t recover etc and they gave me access to the email that it was registered with etc. They have been very transparent with me however now that I have been burned, I feel vulnerable.
