    Do you guys have multiple accounts?

    I'm considering getting a second account in case my main is hacked or frozen. I'm pretty paranoid, as you might have seen from previous posts. I'm a completely legitimate user; no ABers, scamming, etc., but I'm scared of being falsely frozen.

    Do you guys have more than one account? Do you use it as a second main or a side, and is it linked to your main? Do you keep part of your wealth on it, in case one of your accounts is hacked or frozen?

    Of course, I've got thousands. You need to learn how to use proxies and create different identities for yourself, not linking any accounts so you don't get chain frozen.

    At any one point in time, I probably have anywhere from 500m-1bil in trades on a bunch of different accounts lol
    I would never survive with just one account. I always get too greedy and want to move more and more NPs onto my account!
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    How do you guys feel about keeping your expensive items (30m+) in your gallery? Does it usually lead to the account being hacked, or is it usually safe?

    No one will really try to hack you with even 30+ million in your gallery. Just (seriously, this works) change your PW and e-mail PW often (of course, have different PWs for both) and change your pin often too, so people with big lists (usually a few months old) can't get you.

    I would probably suggest keeping expensive items out of the public eye, unless you're pretty confident that nothing will happen and it's a main account that doesn't look like a shell.

    But yeah, definitely like Spitfire said, not much else you can do/not much else to worry about if you just keep changing your pw/email and other info regularly.

    Thanks! How are these lists obtained? I'm very good with security, so I'm sure I won't get CG'd; do I still need to change the info on my account often? My gmail is also secured with secondary verification and an impossibly difficult password.

    Your gmail account should be very safe, they have excellent protection against unauthorized access.

    Change your password once a month, same with PIN, should have no worries.
