    Exclamation How to Avoid Scam(s).

    What types of scam are out there?

    Banking, credit card and online account scams – these scams aim to get you to hand over your banking and personal information by sending you emails, often saying they are from your bank, asking you to verify your account details, including your password.

    How do I avoid scams?

    Platinum:

    1) Don’t respond to offers, deals or requests for your personal details. Stop. Take time to independently check the request or offer.

    2) Never send money or give credit card, account or other personal details to anyone who makes unsolicited offers or requests for your information.

    3) Don’t open unsolicited emails or click on a link provided in an unsolicited email as it will probably lead to a fake website designed to trick you into providing personal details.

    4) As I notice, there were some players asking for platinum to buy for him/her, never ever ever ever ever EVER! give a platinum for someone you dont know.

    IG Money:

    1) Never trust anyone, unless you know them in real life.

    2) If there trying to sell accounts, never buy it because of course it is a type of scam.

    3) There is a kind of Scam that they will say that "Can I borrow your Vanity?"... Dont. Even your closest friend.

    What to do if you have been scammed(credit card/Platinum)

    1) If you have given your bank or credit card details to a scammer, contact the bank or credit card organisation to freeze your accounts before the scammer steals your money.

    2) Send an email to support@spacetimestudios.com
