# Get Verified

Verification is a one-time process for Option Omega subscribers and typically takes less than a minute. Please follow the steps below.

### Recommended Videos

We recommend new users watch the following two videos before proceeding. They provide a quick walkthrough of the process and explain how to navigate the community:

### Scam Warning

Please note that Discord has a known issue with impersonators and scam attempts.\
**OO staff will never send you direct messages or friend requests.**\
If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from an OO team member, assume it is a scam — report and block the user.

### Written Instructions for Self-Verification

#### Step 1: Go to the Discord community by following the link: <https://discord.gg/s5HG3ECUE4>

#### Step 2: Find Your Discord Username (Not Your Display Name)

Click your profile in the bottom-left corner of Discord to bring up your account card.

> ⚠️ The most common mistake is copying your **display name**, which is not your actual username.

Your **Discord Username** appears directly under your display name and remains constant. It may include punctuation or numbers and must be copied **exactly**.

Example, in the image below:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/PEc2kzGvnhS2NAem9R8i" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

#### Step 3: Enter Your Username in Option Omega

1. Log in to [optionomega.com](https://optionomega.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
2. Click the person icon in the top right corner, then select **Settings**
3. Go to the **Preferences** tab
4. Paste your full Discord username into the **Discord Username** field
   * Double-check for typos, punctuation, and spacing — it must match Discord exactly
5. Click **Update Preferences**
