As some of you may know Twitch can be very finicky when it comes to the buying/selling of accounts, and many accounts that are bought have been known to get banned shortly thereafter.
Luckily there's an easy way to avoid this!
I'm the OG owner of /Hero, and a few others you might recognize if you saw the name. (/Hero sold with matching YT, LoL IGN).

These two tips will save you loads of worry about the safety of your newly sold/purchased account:

First and foremost, always, ALWAYS, include the OG email with the account.

The Seller, especially if they have lived in the same location for a very long time, should email Twitch Support. Inform Support that you are "moving", and that the purpose of the email is to ensure the continued security of your account. You may have to provide a general region or state of the Buyer. (Midwest of the US, Eastern Coast of the US, EU, etc). Include in the email that you regularly receive password reset attempts sent to your email address, and that you just want to touch base with them so their security doesn't think the account has been compromised due to the sudden IP change when you "move". It doesn't hurt to add that you'll be updating all of your passwords/emails soon.

Immediate changes of Email addresses, passwords, and IP/ISP are a HUGE red flag to Twitch.

These tips address all of those points.

Twitch pays attention. They've also been taking a lot of heat from the media recently, so they're ###### down.

Keep accounts safe everyone, happy selling.
