hi guys. so, i know that. those advertising sites on GE are not safe. but i wanted to take the bait to see if i get lucky. Never, trust me,
Fake stories of quitting is a sign of scams.
Link shorteners is a sign of scams.
Offsite giveaways is a sign of scams.
Foreign site domain is a sign of scams.
Lots to keep in mind! Listen to your gut feelings my friend. Better safe than sorry!
It's true the site will ask you to log in as it collects your login name and login password. Possibly your email too if it's an email login and email hasn't been changed since. So be careful with any incoming emails you receive the coming days!
It also asks for auth code which it collects and will attempt to sign in to your account immediately after. The site administrator will get access to your IP address and device information.
Here's some guides that should help prevent this and also keep yourself secure
How your account could become insecure
Securing your account Life is like a camera: Just focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don't work out, take another shot !

... it asking for the authenticator is what threw me off, and that it lead to the runescape forums here, with the Mod Sarnie approval, obviously seemed legit to someone dumb like me. idk who mod sarnie is or how to view actual moderators? and it being on a forum just seemed that it would be a sorta, legit? way to do a giveaway, if they so wanted to do one. Hello Nic0w0, there is no 'lucky' nor 'dumb' it is simple curiousity about something that is 'digital' thus difficult to understand how it will enfold once you are getting into troubles.
The real world, it is easier to detect these kind of problems, learned about it as a little kid that something like this can happen and advised well enough by others during your education/growing-up how to deal with it.
The digital world has not such a thing. You go on The Internet and 'whammm' you have to deal with it whether you have knowledge or not.
Curiousity is a dangerous thing, you need a lot of knowledge and self-control to deal with it.
Even simple awareness isn't enough because they are aware of you.
I do not know for sure but as far as I have followed your story, you have lost this account for ever, even if you still have a feeling that you are in control, you are not in control anymore.
Your account is hijacked - phished - scammed and your digital identity 'might' be compromised.
The future will tell in how deep troubles you are.
