Animal Jam’s History of Hacking

[@woctopus101]

2fa can be annoying because you have to keep checking your email and re login everytime you play

[@kijjikon]

It’s not every time you play, only when you log into a new device- or an old one you haven’t used for awhile. Additionally; a mild occasional nuisance is worth not losing years of items.

[@cremekimmy4995]

I used two different accounts. It doesn't make me log in every time proof.

[@the_machinery7800]

What do they even get? The satisfaction of stealing a 12 yr olds black long? Lol

As someone who is mildly experienced with programming (Python mostly), I can confidently say that 2FA isn't that easily bypassed. With loading times to register when you put in a code, it would take much over 15 minutes to get through, so 2FA is generally safe against bruteforcing.

[@Aprill_The_Fool_2]

I remember my friend during the data breach not believing the email she got was true, and as she only had her spare affected so she didn't mind she couldn't get back in, but it makes you wonder how many other people found it sketchy and never got back into their accounts.... I nearly was forever locked out of my account, and I was for about 10 months locked out because the person that is my parent account changed my password, but luckily by password guessing I got back in. I could only imagine how bad the data breach could have been for everyone that got locked out, from having their password changed like I had happen in 2021, or by thinking the data breach password change email was sketchy or even just not seeing it at all, I'm so glad I at least access to my account, even if I can never access my parent email or change it.

[@pancakesmay9222]

As somebody who was hacked recently because of the data breach, please do enable 2 step verification! If i had it originally i couldve still had all my items and animals to this day, accounts from this data breach are beint accessed to this day

[@kieran8792]

Mine was also hacked around a year and a half to two years ago, I wish I had done this as well. I quit playing because of it and am just recently playing a bit again

[@notmelony2431]

i want to but my i can’t remember the parent account password and i’m so sad

[@chnce.1359]

I remember getting hacked from the security breach in 2020 and like It was really sad I've gotten far I spent money, traded for rares etc. That account was three years old like imagine working hard for something and it all just gets taken away one day

[@kijjikon]

💔

[@WolfLoveYT]

thank you for covering this! I have gotten hacked 7 times in my 3 years of playing animal jam and this vid has helped me alot!

[@kijjikon]

Of course 💜💜

[@sterninator]

Kinda a reason I never got into rares, in my experience the AJ security is shit and throughout my 7 years of playing I never once shared my password, however every time id star accumlating some worth my account would just be hacked even after having unique long passwords, and of course AJHQ wouldn't do shit. And then of course the data breach happened and they finally decided to update their security and add 2fa which is something that is also pretty much useless as the Parent dash doesn’t have 2fa also. And in my experience some of the times i've gotten hacked they had logged into my parent dash which means someone can get into your parent dash as easy as they always did and just turn off 2fa. That's a major reason in hindsight as to why I quit. Sorry for the rant Kijjikon lol

[@nagykrisztina2187]

As someone who had their account hacked way back what had a bunch off rare things. A few things I recommend you do is. First if you get bored of aj or know you can't play it for a long time change you're charcter to something simple along whit your user and such (also you can remove very rare things form your trade list). Second is if you have the time and memory try changing your password every once in a while. Sorry for the bad english and such I just wanted to share because I been taking this two extra steps not willing to lose years of work again because some people thought it was fun or cool to hack an account.

[@-_PIZZA-on_ZOOBA_-]

I have 2fa and i feel so secure, i wouldn't buy any items for real money 1st im not dumb 2th im broke and my parents wont let me buy anything for only 3 us dollars Thanks for the tips! Im a huge fan

[@cometkeiko]

Oooo! Love this! Problem is it doesn’t have subtitles 😔

[@kijjikon]

Awh! I’m sorry I don’t know what it is with KZbin automatically applying subtitles to some videos but not others :(

[@cometkeiko]

@@kijjikon I have hearing problems but I think there’s a feature where you can write subtitles?

[@hot_woody]

The subtitles work for me?

[@cometkeiko]

@@hot_woody This was posted when the subtitles didn’t work.

[@DamnItMantis]

I am so glad my old username was cringe, otherwise I wouldn’t have changed to a new account that has not been leaked

[@TURRET04]

ITS HEREEEE !! Thank you for putting in research into your videos rather than just going off by base info

[@kijjikon]

Of course

[@BlueFlame178]

I'll have to watch the rest later! But I have to say congrats on 860 subs!! 🎉 I haven't been here for awhile... By a while I mean 1 week😶

[@kijjikon]

Thank you! 💜

[@muffincatz]

Weirdest thing happened today and I don't know of it's to do with hacking or just a glitch. I was just chilling in Moku'ahi (testing my audio quality) and then a random jammer just APPEARED in the air and then disappeared again shortly after. It had no name tag, nothing. This happened again and each time the same, except the animals were always different and normal looking jammers. I think maybe it could be a glitch where when someone spawns in, it makes them appear fora second or so in the AIR in Moku'ahi- so weird. Literally happened today, a couple hours ago. I was so confused 😕

[@Roseytheblossomfox]

Same I saw that to

[@creativename186]

Its a glitch that has been in ajpw since forever, i remember it scared me when i was younger

[@Third7Plays]

Why I don’t trust 2FA: my old roblox account was locked away from me thanks to 2FA, I am now too scared to use it. Thanks Roblox, now I fear a safety feature due to account preservation reasons

[@abstractsock]

On AJPW every time I log in I get the thing telling me to hook my parent email but every time I try I legit receive nothing 😭 like why won’t they send it

[@nishanpeiris9748]

PPL STOP SELLING RARE ITEMS IN ANIMAL JAM FOR REAL CURRENCY IS WRONG SO STOP IT!!!!!!!):( (btw if ur a hacker is watching this stop doing this plz :l)

[@Mautskimoo]

Lots of people do it to get rid of their account when they quit or extra items. If they aren’t hacking it shouldn’t be wrong.

[@toffiie]

when I was hacked, ajhq wouldn't return my items or reimburse me with any sapphires because I didn't have 2FA. lesson learned, got 2FA now!

[@kijjikon]

💔

[@maritrini12childhoodfannoh21]

That explains, you rock!

[@Patrickstaraj]

This is exactly what happened to my old acc I had forest two rcs grey furry and a lot of very rare betas :l so I had too restart and now I'm slowly getting back up there :3

[@Patrickstaraj]

Opp forgot too put this in there sorry XD 0:34

[@-Strawberry12-]

The problem is that if you have a acc that has been in the data breach your email, password and user can just be on a random website and it dosent matter if you have 2fa cuz they have your email and they can just get the code easily. Also thos fake videos where they say "you can get a hacked, banned or suspended" acc "back" by putting your PASSWORD in a email thats not even AJHQs email. Like bruh if your acc got banned or hacked putting your new aj user and pasword is not even enough evidence to prove that its your acc and if you acc got banned its LONG gone by now.

[@Dy1pickle]

No wonder I can’t get into my old account-

[@gingerkitten13]

Maybe the data breach is why someone spent $100+ for Clash of Clans… 🤔 All jokes aside, this was a really good video! Very informative and important! Now I understand why Aj made me reset my password. I’m glad you also addressed the fact that 2FA isn’t as protective as Animal Jam says it is. Animal Jam needs to set the time to 5 minutes or less. I’m impressed you discussed item selling. I’ve seen content creators I trusted say that item selling is ok. It’s actually illegal to sell in-game items. Note that it isn’t illegal to buy them. But you shouldn’t anyway. It’s extremely unsafe.

[@kijjikon]

Exactly! Item selling is really messed up. I wish more people talked about it

[@Nekokumii]

If someone quits its okay though to make profit and do something with that persons hard earned items.

[@kijjikon]

@@Nekokumii yikes definitely not

[@Nekokumii]

It is though, there's no sense in just wasting the hard work and giving it to people, that hard work that's actually worked for should be sold for money so that persons work doesn't go to waste, do you know what I mean? Leamonpuppy made a video on this type of stuff

[@Nekokumii]

Hackers selling is NOT okay however

[@Dreamyyy_kitten]

Tbh I feel like aj is trying to make up for when it was hacked in 2020 and the bots I feel like aj is trying to make it more “safe” so parents continue to let there kids play still so they aren’t concerned about there private info getting leaked like emails and credit card info (if they payed for sapphires) but hey that’s just a theory! A star theory!

[@c4nis.latrans]

I got hacked by my best friend back in 2020 and she traded all my good items. :(

[@Arcticwolf18]

I should definitely turn on 2 step verification 😅

[@rileyblackwood7101]

ive been waiting for this one!

[@Nekokumii]

Thank you so much, also I love your avatar

[@TipsAJPW]

My main account was mad many years ago and I can’t get 2fa cuz it’s not connected to any emails

[@FoozyAJ124]

I was here since 100 subs! You almost have 1k subs after like posting a few vids, I mean it's understandable because you have a tiktok, and who knows if your followers are subscribing?

[@kijjikon]

Who knows!

[@JustMilo2024]

Kijji thanks

[@ParkadeParade]

i got hacked from the video email method, i was trying to recover my friends old account that they gave me permission to use but forgot the password. lost like 5 solids worth

[@kijjikon]

I’m so sorry :(

[@ParkadeParade]

@@kijjikon no worries! i should of known better!

[@macaquesnumberonefan]

i have a feeling i'm gonna get hacked, lol. i accidentally used the video method, and i can't access my parent account. just waiting until my ultimate demise tbh

[@Buzziez_AJ]

Thank you! I love your videos!

[@kijjikon]

Thank you!!!

[@Fr0zenChiken]

last year i almost lost my account beacuse of the data breach (i think) i logged out of my account and i logged back in and it said i wasnt able to, luckily i was able to change the password so glad i was

[@notaxolotl383]

bruh in the date breach, the email that was connected to my acc got deletead, and wen date breach happend, I simplely coldn't change password, like I can't do anythingh. and just NOW, 4 years after this date breach, ive found out why my red wind, alphas and much more got yeped from my acc. lmao I was a child in the time, and tough that the own ajhq was stealling my itens! but now Ive re-started on a new acc, gladly new and whit NO data breach.

[@asleenheart]

Are data breach still a thing or

[@SSeraph_ae]

The guy who posted on Reddit about the data breach admitted to it being a lie to scare the kids 😂 ppl are bonkers

[@kijjikon]

Fr….

[@Dreamyyy_kitten]

I also lost my accounts and I didn’t know what my password was lol

[@Kookie_creme]

So that explains why i am unable to login to my main account 😢

[@Roseytheblossomfox]

Luckily I did not got hacked all thanks to 2 step viUcation PHEW!! My freind got hacked for 2 months and it’s was her freind but she Tome some item

[@Vila9303]

This is a great video, I've already done everything to make sure my accounts are secure. Also, you can add two step authorization to your email. I've done this already. But if you do this you have to use your phone number and get a code through that or some alternative way of signing in unless you turn it off. Making sure your accounts are secure is a great way to keep yourself safe online.

[@kijjikon]

Yes!! I didn’t think to mention this because it’s more ‘Gmail’ centric than animal jam centric but great advise regardless!

[@v-qx1nj]

Because everyone has a phone right..
