There is a dangerous new Account Theft Scam going around the server. Scammers are trying to steal your account by tricking you into linking their email address to your profile.
If you do this, you are giving the scammer total control of your account. They will immediately use that email to change your password, lock you out, and steal all of your items, ranks, and Pika Gold. There is no dupe bug.
Please share this with your friends and teammates so they don't lose their accounts!
How the Scam Works:
- A scammer will private message you (/msg) and act very friendly to build trust.
- After talking for a bit, they will claim there is a "secret dupe bug" to duplicate Pika Gold.
- They will tell you to go to the /hub and type:
/email add [email protected] (or a similar fake email) - They tell you to confirm it, leave the game for 3 to 5 minutes, and log back in to get your duplicated gold.
WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
If you do this, you are giving the scammer total control of your account. They will immediately use that email to change your password, lock you out, and steal all of your items, ranks, and Pika Gold. There is no dupe bug.
How to Stay Safe:
- NEVER add an email to your account that isn't your own personal, secure email.
- Official Pika Network emails are ONLY:
- ANY OTHER EMAIL (like [email protected]) is a 100% fake scam.
Please share this with your friends and teammates so they don't lose their accounts!
Short Version (For In-Game Chat):
SCAM ALERT: If anyone /msgs you about a "Pika Gold dupe bug" telling you to type /email add [email protected], DO NOT DO IT! It is a scam to steal your account. Official emails are only [email protected] or [email protected]. Stay safe!
