Account creation date

I was wondering if the day I created my account is important. I was chatting with a few friends and told them when I created mine, as I wasn't sure if there was a security risk in saying anything about it. I don't think there's a way in knowing unless you happen to remember the day you did. I don't think that there is an option to view it on the website as well.

    Greetings, Yolky! My name is Arif, I'd be pleased to help you as independent adviser.

    1. Hello, the date of your account creation is significant, but it's possible that someone else could use that date to gain access to your account. To increase the security of your account, you can reset your password and create a new one with 10 characters that include letters, symbols, uppercase, and lowercase letters, and numbers.
    2. Verify your security and privacy and confirm that the email address and phone number for account recovery are yours.
    3. Attempt to turn on two-factor authentication for your account.

    How to setup 2FA kindly check the below link:

    If the steps outlined above work for you, kindly let me know. If not, please feel free to respond to my chat.

    Warm Regards,

    Arif
