Keep your League of Legends Account Safe

Have you ever lost a personal account due to a scam or by getting banned anywhere? By now, we've all been a target of a scam attempt or felt less than safe somewhere online. Your League of Legends account might be at risk, and some less careful players have lost their accounts in the past. We can't even begin to imagine losing all of our skins permanently, so, today we're going to tell you everything you can do to boost your League of Legends account security!

What are the main risks for your League of Legends account?

There are a lot of reasons why players lose their Riot accounts, and not all of them are that easy to avoid. Let's check out what they are and how you can avoid them.

Buying a League of Legends account is a fairly common practice in the game, and although it's safe if you get it from a certified seller, there are a lot of less-than-trustworthy people out there selling botted accounts.

Just this week, starting on the first day of the new ranked split, Riot banned over 1,000 accounts that were leveled up using bots or third-party software. So if you're looking for a new account, always make sure it's hand-leveled.

 

Speaking of third-party software, cheating is a tale as old as time in the video game world. A lot of players want to boost their performance in games and use shady applications to do so. Unfortunately for them, if there's something that Riot is good at, it's detecting cheating, so you should steer clear of any kind of sketchy program.

 

Now, the next topic is one of the things that League of Legends is famous for. Bad language, insults, or berating other players, also known as "flaming" or "toxic behavior," have been a huge problem in the LoL community for a very long time now. With the start of the 2023 season, however, Riot Games changed their rules to be a lot more strict and banned more players for flaming in a single season than ever before.

Lucky for us, muting players has never been easier, and now we even have the "/fullmute" and "/ignore all" commands to help. If you feel that you might be too frustrated with the game, Riot has you covered with the "/muteself" command as well.

While it's not the perfect solution, it does take away about 90% of the stress!

Lately, you might have noticed some friend requests in your League of Legends friend list from level 1 accounts with random names. It's easy to see that there's a bot behind these, and it's even easier to imagine what comes next.

Since the beginning of 2023, a scam has led to dozens of players losing their accounts this way. A bot account adds you, and they send you a message promising something like free skins or that they'll get you to Challenger. Some players will fall for this and give these people their Login information, leading to them getting their account banned. It's very important to know that there are no free skins for League of Legends anywhere and that legitimate Elo Boosting businesses will never advertise in the Riot friends list since that would be a huge red flag for Riot, leading to legal issues and hundreds of accounts getting banned.

So, the next time a shady account messages you about professional League players in your area, block them!

 

How can you get an Elo Boost safely?

Sometimes, private boosters will also message you offering their services, but you need to keep in mind that giving someone who has nothing to lose access to your login and password is a VERY bad idea.

Not only will this person have your logins, they will be on your account unmonitored, without a VPN (meaning Riot will detect a login from a different location and investigate immediately). They might use cheats, flame, or even e-mail Riot and tell them you bought elo-boosting and simply keep your money, after all, you can't really appeal a money transfer unless it's from an actual company.

Avoiding a ban and keeping your account safe and clean while getting your perfect rank is easy as long as you follow these guidelines and stick to legit businesses when it comes to your League of Legends account.

There are official websites that sell LoL Skins, TFT loot, and LoL Elo Boosting, and even if you feel uneasy with someone logging in on your account, you always have LoL Duo Boosting, which is simply Duo Queuing, so it's not something you can get banned for!

Here at GG Boost, all our boosters use the GG App (developed by our amazing engineers), which will set up a VPN to your approximate location automatically, monitor all the Boosters' activity, encrypt your login information so your Booster cannot see it even when logging in, and prevent the usage of any cheats with its integrated anti-cheat engine!

Stay safe out there and if you want to reach your dream rank fast while keeping your account safe, check out our League of Legends Boosting Services here!
