⚠️ Warnings & Account Security



  • Anti-Cheat: Apex Legends uses Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC). Do not use any third-party software that modifies the game files, injects code, or automates gameplay (e.g., aimbots, wallhacks, recoil scripts, or macro keys that simulate repeated inputs). Even unintentional violations can result in a permanent hardware ban.

  • Account Linking: If you link your EA account to Steam, Epic Games Store, or console (PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch), the link is permanent for 180 days. You cannot unlink and re-link an account used with a different platform. Be absolutely certain before linking.

  • Phishing & Scams: Never click on suspicious links claiming to give free Apex Coins, Heirloom Shards, or Legend Tokens. Only official sources: the in-game store, EA website, or trusted retailers.

  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enable 2FA on your EA account. Many players have lost accounts due to weak passwords or reused credentials.
