THEY ARE FRAUDSTERS!!

I bought Sim City from them and got 2 codes, one for me and one for a friend
the game worked fine, but now EA have blocked access to the game due to fraud.

They are super dodgy, word to the wise..
stay away from them at all costs

the PayPal account i sent the money to no longer exists
they change it all the time apparently.

i chatted with EA support live and they advised me the code was purchased using a stolen credit card
so when u buy from them, they buy the code from EA with stolen cards then send you the codes and then u cop the issues.

    They have contacted me. Maybe I can find out why the codes have been blocked. See what happens now I have made this post.

    I will give them credit they refunded my money through paypal just low. So not as bad a result in the end.

      Hmmmm.Are you their damage control jzdhgkd ????? It isn't a good outcome when the OUTCOME originated from an incident that involved CC DETAIL THEFT AND FRAUD….all whilst using bogus Paypal Accounts to try and become unreachable.Yeah,jimbobaus should amend his original post (because of course he wants to show he endorses such illegal activity)

  • jimbobaus on 01/09/2013 - 10:22

    Good outcome?
    I now have a flag on my ea account as having used a fraudulent code. How is that a good outcome?
    Getting my money back was a given. Of he didn't refund it paypal would of anyways.
