Beware of Free Linden frauds

If you’re not a frequent reader of Linden Lab’s blog for Second Life, then I now tell you that they just made an saying… DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR PASSWORD!

Don’t be a statistic

I always say this in the past that the real people or site which will provide ways for you to earn money of free lindens or any virtual currency will NEVER ask for your password (even if I or we have a ).

If there’s a chance that suddenly I started asking for passwords to your account, then DO NOT BELIEVE ME! Because certainly, that’s someone pretending to be me. So always be careful and don’t forget to regularly change your password for security purposes as well.

If you’ve been the victim of fraud, contact Linden Lab’s fraud hotline at 800 860 6990. Then, talk about it. Post your experience to forums, blogs and chat. Tell others about who it was and how it happened.

If you liked this post, buy me a coffee. (Suggested: 3$ for a Caffè Mocha or 6$ if ever I have a date.)
