Concerning The Recent Scam Cases

Recommended Posts

Dear fRO community,

We hope everyone has enjoyed the holidays and is having a great start to the new year. In light of some recent scam cases, we would like to remind everyone of the following:

  • You will never be asked to donate money to become a GM on ForsakenRO. EVER.
  • You will never be contacted in game and offered a GM position or asked to apply for GM under ANY circumstances. We announce when we're hiring and only accept GM applications to [email protected].
  • A GM will never ask you for your password
  • Administrators do not have secret accounts and will never contact any player on any other character in game other than their official GM characters, [GM]Genesis and [GM]Veracity
  • Genesis does not live in the Philippines, he lives in Boston, Massachusetts. If anyone claims to be Genesis and says they live in the Philippines and/or speak Tagalog or any other language other than English or Spanish, it is not Genesis, it is someone trying to scam you.
  • Administrators will never contact you on any messenger account other than their official ones listed in their forum profile. Here are Genesis' official messenger accounts:

  • If you're donating via Western Union, Money Gram, or sending money by mail, here is a list of Genesis' full name and location. These are the only ones you should ever send money to. Never send money to someone claiming to be Genesis who says they live in the Philippines or any other location.
  • In chats, if it doesn't list a GM or Administrator's name on the right hand side of the chat, NO GM IS IN THE CHAT. If we are in a chat, our name will ALWAYS be visible on the right hand side, always. This is a common trick used by scammers.
Please help us prevent scam cases by sharing this information with your friends on fRO and reporting anyone who tries to scam you or claims to be a GM or Administrator.

Thanks!

Just a reminder, you should never accept any .exe files from someone claiming to be a GM. We won't send you an .exe of programs like Team Viewer. It's everyone's personal responsibility to keep themselves informed on issues like this and pay attention to the numerous broadcasts, topics and warnings we give to players.
