Just wanted to alert you all to something I noticed since I started playing this game. I love Falling Chairs. I go from room to room to play and now I even host my own. I noticed two people who work together all the time to scam people out of items.

The host will make sure her friend always gets the chair and wins and they get to keep the pay everyone dishes out with the promise of rare. The host is a girl named <name removed> and her friend who always wins is <name removed>. Sometimes they swap and the other will host. I have reported this many times and nothing has happened to them in 2 weeks time. I've sat and watched game after game and every time he wins. EVERY TIME. She will put the chair right near him on purpose.

I even went to be so bold as to tell the entire room what they were doing and I was promptly booted so I couldn't spoil their scam. Please stay away from these two. You will only lose your items and waste your time.

Thanks! I have noticed so many people scam lately, it's not even funny :( it's starting to scare me how many people cheat you out of your stuff. I have had this happen to me many times, and I know how it feels to be someone whol loses their stuff (especially when it comes to inferno, stitch, etc.). So anyone out there, try to just leave as fast as you can after you get their name, and immediately report them.

Thanks!

Oh sorry I didn't realize that. Kind of hard to avoid the scammers if you don't know who they are though. :sad2:

If you want to know the names, PM me.

We cannot allow the naming of players accused of scamming as we have no way to verify what takes place in the game. Unfortunately, false accusations could be made.

The best way to avoid a scam is to be aware of HOW people are scamming. (Scammers often use many different accounts anyway.)

Can anyone say they are suprised? The game is easily manipulated, and can be won by the same person constantly. Once you figure out how eaily it can be manipulated (as the scammer obviously has) then it's just a matter of offering pay and watching the items roll in. That's why I don't play falling chairs, cute or boot, or most other carbon copy games. Not to mention the fact I hate it when people aren't creative enough to not re-hash the same game and expect people to pay to continue :teeth:.
