Title: Think I got scammed
Post by: gambit1 on June 29, 2017, 03:31:32 PM
I invested in a game called "spacey the bird" and I think I got scammed. The guys account was xyzabc and now I think he's called ExtraMileGames. He has gone dead on Facebook and isn't responding to my messages. His name on Facebook was Shubham Garg.

Feel free to tell me I'm an idiot for investing; thats not the point. I don't want anyone else getting scammed .

What kind of game? The only game I can find is a mobile app spacey the bird, but with no investments though. You should give the link to warn users not to join.

I got 'scammed' by one of those ponzi games before too, which I obviously did not know and I had to learn it the hard way. I invested just $10 (luckily just that), and soon a few months later the site had bugs and it 'went down', forever. :(

I learnt a lesson to stay away from games that require you to invest, and offer increasing earning rates upon investing. It is hard to know these sites are scam only until you've been scammed. Truth. :P

How much you lost? Your not an idiot. just consider it as a expensive learning experience. Goodluck on your next investment venture.

You invested in a game? If you do want to protect other people from repeating the same mistake, you do need to give us more info.

I think you're referring to this user here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=465712

Please use the proper scam accusation format, along with proof, pm logs, etc.

Code:
[b][color=black]What happened:: [/color][/b]

[b][color=black]Scammers Profile Link: [/color][/b]

[b][color=black]Reference Link: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Amount Scammed: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Payment Method: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Proof of Payment: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]PM/Chat Logs: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Additional Notes: [/color][/b]



Did you play the game, or did you invest in the development of the game? How much bitcoin did you get scammed? Please let us know, so that a DT member can tag the scammer as well based off your proof, and you can achieve your goal of deterring anyone else from dealing with this guy.

P.S. he hasn't been online since March, so i guess there is a small chance of you getting paid :-\
