Staff Impersonation
If you've been contacted by someone claiming to be a JMod or PMod, the easiest way to identify if they are telling the truth is by the crown next to their in-game name.
Phishing attempts
If the person contacting you doesn't have a crown next to their name it is a phishing attempt and you should ignore them.
