Epic Games Store Delete Account How To Control Cookies

Last week I went through my profile in more detail and came across the section that allowed me to connect various other accounts, like GitHub, Twitch, Xbox and PlayStation.

I always got the error message that this PlayStation account has already been connected to another EPIC account.

Being 200 sure that I did not have another EPIC account, I did some research and it turns out that the problem as actually Fortnite.

We didnt have one, never signed in or created one, but the game worked anyway.

As it happens, under the hood a so called nameless EPIC account is created in such circumstances only with your PSN ID and nothing else.

Your email address on the fake EPIC account must be verified for this procedure to work.

It probably depends on how your account was setup when you started playing Fortnite.

Like in my wifes case, she had started playing without having her account linked to anything else, so it was a new EPIC account linked against no user.

It might have been possible to take this account and potentially link it against something else.

Resorted to trying to contact Epic Support and came upon your article.
