Alternative Options To Keep Your Account Safe

Stardoll users have become very crafty with new ideas to have fun on Stardoll, but unfortunately some members abuse these ideas and use it for evil.

MAKEOVERS

I'm sure everyone has heard of giving Stardoll Makeovers. That's where you would give someone your password and allow them to make-over your MeDoll. Stardoll even says themselves on their Safety Quiz *not* to fall for this trick. Users would trick others into giving them their password by providing them references, people who say "this person will not hack you". Of course, you can never be sure and you should NEVER give out your password. But what if you don't know what to do with your MeDoll, and you want a makeover?

The solution:

Stardoll now has the Camera feature. Members are avoiding getting their accounts stolen by doing "photo makeovers". Photo makeovers are where the member giving the makeover would go into your beauty parlor on their own account, do your hair and makeup, then take a picture using the camera feature. You can then easily see your makeover in their album, and you can replicate it yourself. This way, no one goes on your account but you!

PRESENTATIONS

Back a while ago, having a fancy presentation was all the craze. Everyone was so exclusive about their work. They would create a fancy presentation on Microsoft Word or they would HTML code it, and then they would ask for your password to put it on your account. The problem with this was that so many people wanted a fancy pres, they were willing to give their passwords out. Again, people tricked people by showing them "references". People were getting their accounts stolen left, right and center. Everyone wanted a cool presentation, but they had to compromise the security of their account.

The solution:

Users can now drag and drop the presentation by themselves. Also, a lot of people nowadays know how to make their own presentation. The ones who don't know, can get one for free. So many people have blogs. clubs, and accounts with presentations you can drag and drop yourself! 

When I find more alternatives to keeping your account safe I will add them to this post. I hope this helped!
