I am a follower of God. I probably do not believe or worship the same way you do, but if you are a Christian, then you know what really matters....Jesus Christ is our savior. If you aren't a Christian, send me a message, especiall if this offends you. I won't bash your beliefs or ideas, just as I hope you won't bash mine.
Hacker Scams
Being a hacker doesn't mean you know a lot of code. Nor does it mean that you like to rip people off.

All a hacker does is know how a system works, and learns how to make the system work for him/her.

For example, you may have received a notification from a "REPORT BOT" about needing your info.

Here are some tips.

1) If it were a gaia admin, it would say "[admin]" or "[NPC]" under their name.

2) right click any image in the message, and click "view image". Now look in the address bar. If it is not on a "gaiaonline" server, then the message is fake.

Also, if you have been asked to login again.

1) again, check the address bar to assure that you are on gaiaonline.com

2) right click "home" and click "open in new tab" to see if you are actually logged in. That will never lie. If you aren't, log in there, and try re-clicking the link. If it still tells you to login again, report the post for "phishing"

There are more tricks, like offering a wrapped item as a trade, or saying the bank is messed up. Don't fall for any of these. And if you logged into a page that you think may have been fake, change your password IMMEDIATELY!!
