    Hi all,

    I wanted to send out a reminder about how to keep your account safe from being hacked so that you can keep buying and selling on the site. Here are a few things you can do:
    1. Enable 2 Factor Authentication on your account. You can do that here and it'll add a passcode to your account which will provide extra security https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/account/security
    2. Regularly update your password (even on other sites!) Other sites can get hacked and if you use the same password, your account could get hacked on the Hide too! Also, make sure you're regularly changing your email password as well. If they get access to your email, they can get access to your account.
    Overall, make sure you know who you're talking to and you trust them. Do not use PayPal Friends & Family in your purchases, this is an extremely common scammer tactic, and always check someones profile and feedback before doing business with them. Stay safe out there everyone!
