Main tabs

1. Device Whitelist

• Allows you to whitelist specific MTA serials (unique device IDs) that are allowed to access your account.
• Helps prevent others from logging into your account, even if they know your password.
• If someone tries to log in from a device not on your whitelist, access will be denied.

2. PIN

• Protects the money in your bank account from anyone who gains access to your account or uses your PC while you're away.
• You can:
  • Add a new PIN
  • Change your current PIN (requires entering the old PIN first)

3. Email

• You can attach an email address to your account for password recovery.
• If you forget your password, a recovery code will be sent to your email.

Note:

• Your email is stored using one way encryption for privacy.
• Make sure to remember the exact email used, including capital letters, or you won't be able to recover your account.
• If email recovery fails, you'll need to request manual recovery on the ARM forum board.

2. If an email is already set, enter it.
3. Enter your new email.
4. Click "Request Email Change".

5. Logins

Displays a history of computers that accessed your account.

• Green: Same device serial as your current one
• Red: Different serial, possible unauthorized access

Use this tab to review suspicious activity and secure your account accordingly.

Forum tab

The Forum tab can create a forum account using your in-game account name, link an existing forum account, or unlink the account currently associated with your game account. The commands /getforumaccount, /linkforumaccount, and /unlinkforumaccount also work.

Open Security Center

Use /security to open account security. The panel can check accounts used on the current PC and provides supported security and email options.

Whitelisting a device

Open /security and use Device Whitelist. Enter one allowed MTA serial per line. A blank list allows any serial to log in.

To add the current computer, press Add current device, enter the account password, and save. For another computer, type serial in its F8 console and add that serial. Email recovery can authorize a new serial when needed.
