Thank you!

Lol crap I missed it.
Still waiting on my PM. I guess this is another 'comp' where the organiser wants the contestants to do all the work, and the winners not recive thier prize.
This is what the email says :Quote:

Over the next few days I'll be applying your subscription. I need to login to your account to buy the subscription, my recommendation is for you to change your password to something you can temporarily remember.
good job!
Idk sounds kinda fishy to me...
It would make more sense to just pay MentaL then award the sub to those users... O.oQuote:

He has a sub so he can view this thread. It isnt hard to be able to buy a sub for someone else. I have done it myself.

- Once paid, please create thread in Account Support with your PAYMENT number and Username (with link), who you want to gift sub to.
Obviously if he was gonna give it to us I think we'd have by now..
awww I guess no free subs...
Congratz guys! I picked 22 and than Becca won with 21 grr.. :D GJ Becca ;3 :D
Wastin my time on this bs lol.
Meh, in all fairness I can say that you'd be very very lucky to come across someone willing to give out 10 subscriptions to complete strangers, without some kind of catch or something in return. Just think if the subscriptions were for a year 10 subscriptions would cost $180, I don't see anyone just paying out that to total strangers from a number draw, sad that this kid got people's hopes up, but instead it looks like this is just a troll. Even if the subscription wasn't a year, say 3 months, $80 is still a lot considering it'd be handed to complete strangers. Also somebody posted the message they received about wanting account access, the answer for that is definitely no, and that can say that this so called 'giveaway' makes no sense other than for the thread creator wanting free accounts.
At the end of it all I'd just suggest staying away from this sort of thing, especially if they're wanting account access. I feel something should be done about this, asking for account access is surely against the rules? If this is not intended to be a scam the correct thing to do will be to pay MentaL or pay over TeamViewer, which I still find a little weird, if someone can access your computer remotely they can do a lot of harm to your computer in seconds, just hope for the winners that this isn't a scam, but it seems like it is.
Indeed, as Becca said, the better option would be to gift the sub to the user. Imo, I reckon he just wants your accounts.
Yeah that's what I said, it's quite obvious, like as I said nobody would just pay out $80-100 to complete internet strangers, Christmas or not. (Can happen in some cases but rare)Quote:

It's happened before. Someone did a comp just like this, then gifted the subs to the winners like a normal person. This comp is just a pure scamQuote:

That's pretty pathetic if he was bs'ing. There's no reason for him to have to log on to anyone's account, like Becca said you can gift Subs. I bought Sheen a sub a while ago all you do is buy it and post in account support and ask Dan to transfer it to the account you want to gift. Either he didn't know this or he was trying to scam people.
I'm thinking he was trying to scam people to be honest, some people are nice enough, but nobody's heard anything from this dude other than he wants account access.Quote:
