Securing your accounts
Unique passwords, two-factor sign-in and the habits that keep your CODCheats and game accounts yours.
By the CODCheats team Updated
Your CODCheats account, your email and your game accounts protect each other. A weakness in one is a way into the rest.
Use a unique password for each account
Use a different password for your CODCheats account, your email and each game launcher. A password manager makes this practical. If one site is ever breached, the leaked password then opens nothing else.
Turn on two-factor sign-in for your email
Your email is how every other account is recovered. Protect it with an authenticator app or a hardware key rather than text messages where your provider allows it.
Add an authenticator to your game accounts
Battle.net and Steam both offer one: the Battle.net Authenticator and the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator. With either turned on, a stolen password alone is not enough to sign in.
Keep your licence to yourself
Your plan is for you. Never share your account or licence, and never sign in on a computer you do not control. If you use a shared PC by necessity, sign out when you finish.
If something looks wrong
If you see a sign-in you do not recognise, change the password for that account first, then for your email, and contact support. Read Spotting fake sites and fake staff too, since most account takeovers start with a convincing message.
