[edit] xat Account Protection

When xat Account Protection is activated the xat servers detect if someone else tries to login to your xat account. If it thinks this might be happening then it will not let them login and it will email you a special login link to complete an extended login. This extended login can also happen randomly or for other reasons such as you use a different computer. If this happens to you when you login, all you need to do is click on the link in the email and then login in the normal way.


If you decide you don't want your account to be protected, you can disable this when you login by selecting "xat Account Protection: OFF (Unprotected)"


NOTE:

Only turn OFF if you are sure.

NEVER turn OFF if you are asked to.

NEVER use the same password for your email and your xat id.

ONLY use your email password to log in to your email - NEVER give it to anyone else.

If someone offers you free xats or free promotion they are probably a scammer. If they ask for your password they are 100% a scammer.

[edit] 5 day hold

If xat detects irregularities in your account and suspects Phishing on your account the account will be blocked for 5 days from transfer to allow you time to fix the problem.
