I think you're overhyping this too much. For most people who invested less then a 50$ a GC is completly useless and overrated. Better use that 200 PED on Ammo.

One could think you work for MA and want them to make even more money by buying a GC ~~

Any man can take some risks. Each can decide what is ready to lose. For some 20 ped is a lot. For some 5k ped is not significant. If your value is more than what you can lose with no regrets, get one. Is a great security measure that can help against most kind of hacks.

For those of you who don't know, the security system + reader + postage +insurance costs a lot more than 200 PED for MA. Saying that it profits them as reason for not getting one is just pathetic.
Damn where are those business statements...

The Gold Card prevents anyone from modifying core account information such as personal details, email address on the website. Reactivating your account just resets your password as far as I know, therefore, the individual will still not be able to log into Entropia Universe.

I am unsure of MindArk's procedure when requesting that your account no longer be Gold Card Secured, thus, if an attacker changes your password and then logs a support case asking for the GC to be removed from the account I'm not sure what MindArk does in that event. I'm assuming they would require some kind of security response in order to action it, but I really don't know.

If I remember right, you need to send a copy of your ID if you want to deactivate the gold card ...
