Illegal scamming on real money - 2

iHot · 12-30-2011

Why shouldn't this guy get banned this is SERIOUS hacking your graal account is one thing but your itunes password will give the hacker the ability to buy tons of apps and gralat packs with your password! This is just as bad as taking someones UDID. Proper action should be taken i say a 6 month ban IMO.

Again, there is no proof that he is scamming. Yes, it's highly likely he is, but without actual proof you can't say he is.

He says "gimme your apple ID and password"

What more can you ask for...

I think people shouldn't be stupid enough to do it. Scamming wouldn't be a problem if people used more common knowledge. "Hmm 300 hour guild...5 dollars...golly gosh this is an amazing deal here's my username and password mister!"

I dont think the scammer should punished, Oddball is just an idiot and the consequences are his own fault, it should teach him a valuable lesson.... any one who falls for that is just plain stupid.... and anyways get 300 hours legitlly not buying them off someone, its just noobish and lame.

Wow, I said he asked for it.
I never gave it. You think I'm that stupid?

I just had to tell it so the admins can bann him, if, they think he should be punished.

Bad enough I PMed around alot after this and didn't take more pictures then when he is asking for my account. Maybe PMing he later.
I think he's still around here somewhere..

Scamming or not, it is still against the rules to ask for someone else's private details, such as iTunes login.

^ I completely agree. People should be more responsible with their own private information, and not let their guard down because of their greed.

I once saw a scam website that said "Why do I want to give free gralats? Because I'm a nice person who wants to make the Graal community friendlier and bigger. How do I get you free gralat packs? That's my secret. You're getting them for free, why do you care? Don't worry, you won't get any spam or viruses, because you don´t have to note any of your addresses, so where should you get any problems? Just give me your UDID, and you'll get your free gralats in no time."

This site is so obviously a scam, yet when faced with the words "free gralats", you'd be surprised by the amount of people who will just throw away any thread of common sense they had and fall right into the scam.

I remember receiving a report where someone was asked for their iTunes information, and reported the scammer. I managed to check their messages and confirm this was the case, before banning the offender. I'm not sure if that report was from you or someone else.

That's good. Sorry I misunderstood.

Well, he is still around but doesn't seem to "sell" it anymore.
Now he is looking for a son. Pedo?

I think it probably is a scam, but with the guild having 300 hours new players to graal can easily be fooled, isnt all that easy to get 300 hours for your guild so it is very tempting to give in and give him your details.
