Keep your account secure and respond to suspicious activity
Use these settings to protect your account, end sessions on other devices and respond the right way if something looks suspicious.
Published
Your best protection is a unique, long password and sign-in with an authenticator app. You'll find all the settings for this under Account security. If something looks suspicious, change your password there and end all other sessions.
How to protect your account
Use a password for WANTED SIX that you don't use anywhere else. At least 10 characters are required, and a longer passphrase is safer than complicated symbols.
Set up two-factor sign-in and add a backup device.
Only enter your password on the WANTED SIX sign-in page, never in messages or forms.
For gaming accounts, you only enter your gamertag, ID or a public profile link. We never ask for passwords or login details of your platform accounts.
Sign out after using someone else's or a shared device.
Ending sessions on other devices
Under account security, Sign out on other devices signs you out everywhere except in the browser you're using right now. On the other devices you'll need to sign in again. A list of individual devices or sessions isn't available yet.
How you sign in, with email and password, with Google or with both, is shown under Connections.
If something looks suspicious
If you see changes you didn't make, or you think someone knows your password, follow these steps:
Change your password under account security. If you can't get in any more, reset it via Forgot password.
Click Sign out on other devices.
Set up the authenticator app if you haven't already.
Check under Edit profile and in your account settings whether anything was changed.
If you're stuck, write to us through the contact form. Never include your password or a code from your app.
Security notices
Important notices about your account, such as a deletion request or moderation decisions, always reach you as security notices. You can't turn these off because they protect your account. Find out more in Notification settings.
Good to know
Other members never see your email address, and it never appears on your profile.
If another member sends you suspicious links or asks for your login details, you can report them.
If you think you've found a security flaw on the website, describe it through Report a bug.
