Riot Games account security

  2. Only trust the official domains below for sign-in and support.
  3. Save the recovery path before you need it — recovery is fastest when you already know the official process.
  4. Learn the common scams listed below so you recognise them before they cost you the account.

Frequently asked

How do I avoid Riot Games phishing scams?
Only sign in on the official domains listed above. Riot Games will never ask for your password or two-factor codes over chat, email or DM. Any message claiming your account is "limited" or "deactivated" with a login link is phishing.
Is my Riot Games account at risk?
Account-takeover risk is highest when two-factor authentication is off, when you reuse a password, or when you click a fake login link. The single highest-impact fix is enabling 2FA and using a unique password.
What do I do if my Riot Games account is hacked?
Secure your email first, then follow the official Riot Games recovery guide. Never pay a third party to recover it — recovery is always free through Riot Games support.
