3 Tips To Keep Your Account Safe!

Hey Jammers! graciepopstar91 here with this weeks post! Today, I wanted to talk about a subject that really needs to be talked about. Keeping your account safe. Scamming and hacking for some reason, seems to be happening a lot lately around Animal Jam. So I'm going to be talking about 2 tips to stay away from scams, and 1 tips to not get hacked! Here they are!

  1. Trust-Trading: One of the most common scams, is Trust-Trading. Trust-Trading is when someone will stand in a township, and say: "Best trade wins my ____!" The blank space could be any high value  item. The Trust-Trader will normally have a low value item on trade. Such as a necklace, bat glasses, etc. Sadly, people fall for this scam. Sometimes this will happen in dens, and people will lock their den after they get a trade they like. Its best to never trade these people, and not go to Trust-Trading events. 
  2. Borrowing Items: Sadly, this is a scam that got me. A girl whom I thought was my friend, wanted to "borrow" my pink Rare Bow And Arrows. I believe she traded me a clover blanket for my bow, and I accepted the trade. She ran off with my item! I cried. Thankfully, one of my buddies gave me their pink Rare Bow And Arrows. From that day on, I learned my lesson! 
  3. Hacking Prevention: Lots of people seem to be getting hacked lately. Sometimes people just get hacked for no reason! But sometimes, they will exchange passwords with a friend. Sometimes you may think you can trust that friend, but its really a bad choice. I recently read about someone getting hacked from sharing their password, and a friend recycling their items! Its always best just to tell your password to a trusted parent or guardian. 
I hope these tips help you keep your account safe!

Heres todays Bible verse!

Psalm 1:1-2

Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night.


Remember, God made YOU!

  4. Another scam thing you might want to add: gift trading. It's not always a scam, but it can be, and there's no way to tell honest from dishonest person. Also flash trading, which is just a trust trade you cancel quickly. Once I flash traded as a new person because I didn't know what it was. Thankfully I wasn't scammed.
