Do not give your password to anyone. The most important thing you can do to protect the security of your account is to not share your account password with anyone. In many cases we are unable to verify the rightful owner of the account, and in most cases we cannot recover anything stolen from the account.
For more information on keeping your account safe and secure please see: http://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/Account_security ---------------------------------------- [Edit 3 times, last edit by Clotho at Sep 15, 2009 5:20:37 PM] |

Gebe niemals dein Passwort weiter, an niemanden. Das wichtigste, was du tun kannst, um deinen Account zu schützen, ist, dein Passwort niemals jemand anderem mitzuteilen. In vielen Fällen können wir nicht überprüfen, wer der rechtmäßige Besitzer eines Accounts ist, und in den meisten Fällen können wir Dinge, die von Accounts gestohlen werden, nicht zurückholen.

No le dé su contraseña a nadie. Lo más importante que puede hacer para proteger la seguridad de su cuenta es el no compartir su contraseña con nadie. En muchos de los casos no podemos verificar el verdadero dueño de una cuenta, y en la mayoría de los casos no nos es posible recuperar mucho de lo robado la misma.

Pirate Service Announcement - Please Read We are aware of a link going around that redirects players to a web page that is an exact copy of the forum log-in page. In filling out this form, rather than logging into the forums, one is in fact unwittingly handing over their account name and password to a scammer. We have taken steps to identify and lock out those accounts that have been already been compromised to prevent any further damage to them. If you are the owner of one of these accounts please do e-mail our support department using the e-mail support form (http://www.puzzlepirates.com/support ) immediately to confirm ownership of your account. Protecting your account from this attack is as simple as verifying what website you are visiting before entering sensitive information such as your username and password into a form. Before logging in, verify the address bar reads "http://forums.puzzlepirates.com/" as that means you are on the forum section of puzzlepirates.com. It is also a good idea to double check where a link is actually linking you before clicking on it. Most browsers will have a status bar (generally at the bottom of the window) which when your mouse is hovering over a link will show where you are being directed. If the link looks suspicious and you're not sure what website you are being linked to, please don't click it! In addition to this, if when browsing the forums a window pops up prompting you for "authorization" or otherwise asking for your account information please be aware that this is not normal forum behaviour and is another version of the scam to get your account information. As such, please do not fill the form in. Instead, please submit a petition to the on-duty Ocean Master (by clicking Ye - Help - Petition in-game) and let them know what thread it occurred in so we can review the matter and take care of the offending scammer. Petitioning an Ocean Master is always the best first step for this or any other forum problem. As always, for more general information for keeping your account secure please review our account security page here: http://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/Account_security |

Make sure you have a secure password. For details on what that entails, please read this: https://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/Account_security For example, be sure it is at least 12 characters and includes punctuation marks, numbers, and a mix of capital and lowercase letters. If you have not changed your password within the last 3 months, please do so now. https://www.puzzlepirates.com/register/ You are not permitted to share accounts for any reason and it's your responsibility to make sure you're using a secure password. ---------------------------------------- Avatar by Scythera |
