Uncovering the ?scammers?
I've been lurking for a while, and I came across this thread; so I decided to play along :o
I went to the site in question, and submitted a 'ticket' to request a custom game; I said something along the lines of;
They responded very quickly (kudos...?) with this e-mail
50 dollars atleast i will also include the private chat and chat and if you want me to set up the domain i can depends on domain
I was a little confused, and then straight away another email came through
sorry that was for someone else if you want a complete copy of tc i will do for 600 dollars includes everythimg
So I thought, what the f*ck, I'll continue playing along :p I sent back this;
50 dollars atleast i will also include the private chat and chat and if you want me to set up the domain i can depends on domain
That seems like what I'd like. What will I get for the extra 550?
To which they replied'
the layout mods login page, secure etc i nice budget what else you want and nice budget i can definatly make it
I thought that was mandatory, so I asked;
Then what does the 50 dollars torn clone with private chat get?
They replied with (and I don't understand it)
someone else try want the background and something else your getting a clone could i get 100 dollars to start with
After reading that, I wanted to play with them even more
$100 USD as a deposit?
Sure; how would you like it to be paid?
When can I get the product?
They replied;
yes through paypal and within 3weeks
I think 3 weeks turnaround for an exact copy of torn is quite impressive!
What's your PayPal email?
Can I have a preview on what I'd be receiving?
[email protected] you will receive a torn city clone
How will I receive it?
i will send you it in a zip file or set it up for you could you set up a domain and host and i neef a deposit of 100 dollars
You guys seem to know what you're doing, so I may as well ask. What could I get with you for $5k, instead of 600?
what ever you want
5000 is alot 600 is ok :) when i receive 100 dollars to
[email protected] i will begin
... seems like they don't like money after all? :confused:
So you won't deal with large amounts of money?
It will take you exactly 3 weeks to clone torn?
so i can make your game like torn city and add features tc wont have you get full game support for 5yrs and we fix any bugs you experience and we add free mods to the game on your request
Man, for 600$ I will get 5 yrs free full game support, including bug patches, plus installation of free modifications! Christmas is early today, folks!
I thought I'd play with them even further; and request something I know they cannot get.
I don't want features tc won't have; I want an exact copy of torn - even the database data.
To which he replied;
ok i will make tc exact but i need 100 dollars deposit
He can get all torns' database data?! Impressive :cool:
