Creating a respectable collection of cosmetics in Fortnite takes a lot of time, dedication and money. It is understandable, therefore, that some players want to take a shortcut to the top by purchasing other users' accounts. Although there are many Fortnite accounts for sale online, is it safe to buy them? Here are the details on buying and / or getting free accounts in 2021.

While creating a personal account is rewarding, it can also be exhausting. Not to mention, it's impossible for new players to unlock all Fortnite cosmetics due to the limited nature of some skins and items. With that in mind, is buying a Fortnite account to skip the grind a good idea?
Buying (and selling) a Fortnite account violates the Terms of Service. Epic Games steps in to track and disable sold accounts, which inevitably makes every expense a waste of money. Also, many account sellers run scams. Customers usually do not receive the advertised game items or even account details.
Users who violate the Fortnite Terms of Service by buying and selling accounts are in violation of the agreement. This is not illegal or a crime, but it is a completely prohibited crime.
Remember that buying / selling accounts is against the Fortnite Terms of Service and actions are taken to disable these accounts.
Epic Games will never ask for your password in an email or social message. Enable two-factor authentication to protect your account!

Are free Fortnite account giveaways safe?
Fortnite account giveaways are not safe. Lack of a transaction can get around the Fortnite Terms of Service violation associated with buying and selling, but many of these contests are scams. Participants usually have to provide personal details to be considered, which can then be sold or used illegally. In many cases, the free Fortnite accounts rumored to be up for grabs won't even exist.
Epic Games recently introduced the Fortnite Crew subscription service to its popular battle royale title. It offers good value for money and is an official and legitimate way to quickly ramp up new Fortnite accounts. Just be aware of one problem when trying to subscribe from a Samsung device.
