Keep your identity UNDETECTED! Animal Jam has rules in place to keep your identity secret! There are things about you that count as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). Each one is a puzzle piece that someone could use to PIECE TOGETHER who you are!🧩

🔍 This means stuff like: ✅ Any part of your real name 🏠 Where you live ✅ Usernames on other sites ✅ Info about your cultural identity ⚕️ Your health information

Always keep these things secret! Someone could use the information they piece together to scam, bully, or scare you!

February 11 is SAFER INTERNET DAY! It’s becoming harder to identify REAL pictures online, so always give pictures a CLOSER LOOK before sharing them, and learn how to SPOT THE DIFFERENCE between a REAL image and a FAKE one! Follow these T.I.P.S.: Text: 🔍 Can you read the TEXT, or does it look scrambled? Identify: 🔍Can you IDENTIFY what each object is once you take a closer look? Do the DETAILS make sense? Placement: 🔍Can you imagine a person PLACING items in the picture, or are they in odd places? Symmetry: 🔍Do both sides match, or is one part weirdly different from the other?

We’ve noticed some concerning activity in the community regarding party potions. Remember, charging fees or asking for payment or trades in exchange for potion drops is considered scamming and a violation of in-game rules. Here’s a quick recap of what’s okay and what’s not:

What’s OK:

• Hosting drop parties for packs or buddies
• Discussing scams and warning others
• Asking if players are hosting drops
• Advertising drop parties that follow the rules

What’s NOT OK:

• Charging fees for potion drops (real life currency or in-game)
• Asking for payment or trades for drops
• Selling “tickets” for drop parties
• Promising drops but not delivering

Let’s work together to keep Animal Jam a positive and fair place for everyone. Report any suspicious activity to a moderator or AJHQ and always be aware of potential scams, especially during this holiday season. If something feels off, trust your instincts and don’t participate.
