this character posted this link ..link removed.. when he or she was playing in balefort castle. I entered my account into their website and now it's gone. my whole account is gone. I had 98 platinum, lots of items. don't ever go to that link. everything I had is gone now. I don't know what to do.

Thanks for the warning but I suggest that you remove the link to that website. Next time, stay away from obvious scams like these. Sorry you had to learn this the hard way.

Your should report him/her if you haven't already

Oah my... I saw that character but his name was not "freeplatinum" at the time. He must change it every day or so. I should have reported him and you should have been smart enough to listen to the pop up that says "DO NOT GIVE YOU ACCOUNT INFO TO ANYONE" every single time you log on.
I'm sorry this happened to you and hopefully STS can get them off the servers in no time.
They are doing a terrible thing...

Ok, no offense but, c'mon really? That wasn't very smart. You know you can't get free plat anywhere except tapjoy. I saw this player again today also.

Trying to get free platinum (outside tapjoy offers, or tournaments...) gets you banned anyway. You can try and contact support(at)spacetimestudios.com, but I seriously doubt they can/will do anything about it to be honest. I mean, you basically tried to get plat outside of the official STS environment, meaning you tried to scam STS of their real life money. Best thing to do is try and start all over again, if your device isn't banned forever by now.

As said so many times already, if a deal sounds to good to be true, it usually is.

You may also want to check watever credit card you linked to your account (unless ur on itunes) cuz I believe they can access your financial info this way.

talk about bad luck tho. Best of luck with your fresh start :)

yep that was a stupid thing to do. anyway please warn the new players because they might not know of this threat anyway. the thing was the person deleted my account, so the email is not in use.

completley deleted? he didnt just switch password?... what the heck was his motive?

Carth
12-23-2011, 04:33 PM
I think he just changed the email and password to your account. I don't think you can delete accounts on your own.

To ruin your life and make his/her's better.
It's completely selfish what he's doing.

I'll donate to you a few items and a bit of coins if you want

I've seen him once in game promoting his site, but I don't believe he was on the character "freeplatinum"

I will be sure to keep a look out for a guy promoting the site tho..

Omg someone came and gave me some items and told me a website to enter my account. I just said thank you and ignored him. He said i could trade items on that site for platinum. I think he said the site is www.pocketlegends.com. Can't remember exactly but beware of this guy who pretends to be nice.

He was being nice... That site he gave you is for the forums and you can trade item in the traders market. I think you may have been mistaken about the platinum part mainly because that's against the TOS.
Be aware about sites that aren't run by STS.

Well, if he has all those stolen acccounts at his disposal with plat on them all, then I don't see why he couldn't make lots of chars.

This person or people change their names hourly sometimes, the scam and website have been the same every time.
Take warning

I'm sorry some people in life and games are just rude, mean, and just want to make you upset >.< . He might have just deleted your character some people get a lot of joy out of doing something that mean as bad as it sounds :/ I'm very sorry man, I wish you the best of luck :) !
