Also, about that “If pets get stolen, take a screenshot” thing, screenshots can be fake. Very, very easily.

Hmm, scams.. I actually ran a guild focused on nailing scammers and alerting about new scammer-tricks. One tried tricking a friend to give out her e-mail by claiming that she was “collecting support against animal cruelty”. When told off, she got -very- rude.
And it´s funny how people don´t realise that ALL info is tied to the mail, not the person, pw, pin or whatever. You´d think that people read the rules and the reasons for them, neh?
About passwords: A non-english language is very useful.

That’s true… but it is better than nothing.

Haha I relate with you Kym; when I got hacked, also many years ago, I felt so enraged that I spent what money I was left on a Halloween paint brush.
