AION 2 scam, fake-site, and third-party software checklist

Open the official NC global site or Steam manually and follow links from there. An unsolicited short URL, a lookalike domain, a logo, and HTTPS do not independently prove NC ownership.

A guide or tool site should not receive an NC password, one-time code, or payment data. For third-party software, inspect notices on the developer's landing page; if no signature, hash, or traceable version exists, do not claim the file was verified.

• Enable available multi-factor authentication and use a unique password.
• Do not mirror or forward executables of unclear origin.
• Treat 'never banned' macro or automation advertising as high risk.

NC's January 2026 release described selective overseas VPN blocking, hardware restrictions, stronger reporting, and a restriction aimed at gathering macros. Policy and detection change, so a third party cannot promise immunity from enforcement.

If you only opened the page and entered nothing, close it and return through your own saved NC entry to check the account. If you submitted a password or code, change the credential from the official site immediately, review the available login and security settings, and make sure the email account is still secure.

If you downloaded or ran a file, stop reopening it, preserve the filename, source URL, and time, and scan the device with trusted system security tools. For payment, account, or fake-support incidents, send evidence through official NC support instead of continuing the conversation or providing more data.
