2. Buyer verifies account status

After receiving the account information, the buyer is required to perform the following operations:

2.1 Login Account:

Using the login credentials provided by the seller, try to log in to the account. If two-factor verification is enabled, work with the seller to complete the verification code.

2.2 Checking Account Contents:

Check whether the account's game assets, subscription services, virtual currency, etc. are in line with the seller's promises. Confirm whether the account has a blocking record or penalty status.

3. Modify the core information of the account

After successful login, the buyer should modify the following information to ensure the security of the account:

3.1 Changing a Password

Set a strong password that contains upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters, and avoid using the same password as other accounts.

3.2 Modifying a Bound Mailbox

4.2 Removing Subaccounts and Sharing Functions

Check whether the account is a subaccount or is in a shared state (e.g. family sharing group, parental custody).
