Phishing is a common tactic used by fraudsters to gain access to players’ accounts. Attackers create fake websites or emails that appear to be from the game developer, prompting players to enter their credentials. Once the fraudsters have the information, they can access the account and steal valuable items or currency.
Scams are also a common problem in the gaming world. Fraudsters might offer players in-game items or currency in exchange for real money, only to disappear with the payment.
