Safe Online Gaming
Safe online gaming refers to protecting players, particularly children, from cyber threats such as scams, harassment, and account theft while playing multiplayer or online games.
- Scams & fraud: Fake sellers may trick players into paying for in-game items that don't exist.
- Account hacking: Weak security can lead to stolen gaming accounts.
- Cyberbullying: Players may experience harassment, threats, or pressure.
- Inappropriate content: Some online games may expose players to violent or harmful content.
Example: A young gamer was scammed out of their game account by a stranger offering “free” game credits.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) to secure gaming accounts.
- Never share login details, even with online friends.
- Avoid clicking on links promising free in-game currency or rewards.
- Report and block players who engage in harassment or scams.
- Use privacy settings to control who can message or play with you.
