What to do..

[Sebastian Vael]

Well, a kind guy here on sythe gave me a free runescape account with 2250+ max level, he said it is mine and stuff but how do i secure it? he has a bank pin set which will expire in 3 days and cant change the pass atm as he still has the original email :x, any clues?

Secure it with that jg. but ultimately i don't think it can ever be secured. If he is the creator of the account and kept good info he will always be able to get it back.

Its nearly impossible to completely secure the account, I havent been apart of the rs world for about a year so i'm not 100% on the exact procedure but you have to wipe everything, youre gonna need to delete the email (sure youcould find a guide on that somewhere around the interwebs), the questions, youre gonna need some previous passwords, the isp used to register, the estimate register date. Everything needed to recover, its basically impossible to completely secure the account. youre gonna have to do all of above and just hope that you can trust the guy.

 

Take a look at the sticky here I helped reform http://www.sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1460710
Accounts can always be recovered by the original creator. That is one reason giveaways are not allowed and why I reported that thread and had video close it. Do not put any valuables on it as the owner will recover it and steal your stuff.

The account is rather useless for you atm. I do not know what to do other than to wait for a few weeks to see if the original owner recovers it back.

Even so, its still not 100% safe.

 

I suggest to just xfer all of the tradeable items to your own account and dont use the account he gave you it will get recovered

Okay, thanks for all the responses

From my past experience, I got a level 137 account before, played on it for a few days and then it was recovered back. Either he was hoping I'd buy a ton of RSGP for the account or he changed his mind. I'm sure the same will happen to you. Sorry

Ah, thanks , and i won't put anything on the account for a month+ time anyway.
