No, SG doesn’t put out gem packs outside of the shop. This is most likely a scam.

DragonSnake · April 5, 2019, 6:43pm

The only thing outside of the shop that I have gotten were the 50 gems from facebook

princess1 · April 5, 2019, 6:47pm

Just to clarify for the OP … that’s 50 gems from the official E & P Facebook site

DragonSnake · April 5, 2019, 6:52pm

That is correct, @princess1 Thanks for clarifying that

This is clearly a scam but I’m just wondering HOW exactly is it supposed to work? Is the code also a code of the app in Store? Cause in all of the “FREE GEMS!” scams I’ve seen a person has to download an app from the store (and that app is either full of spammy ads or infects the phone). Don’t understand how this one is supposed to work.

You should google the key word, as the message says. If you do that, you’ll get a single hit that directs to a blogspot page, then redirected to a raffle-like page. Whether the code is malign or not I can’t tell.

FraVit93 · April 10, 2019, 2:59pm

To clear any doubt, if the gems aren’t bought in the very official app then you are sure it’s a scam…
and I even add that everyone should try to ban them from the chat.

I find it highly suspicious that the “players” offering this are all very low level, likely accounts created just to perpetrate this scam.

Always assume malign

[Tips, Help] But I didn't do ANYTHING but my account is trashed/ banned ! or Common mistakes, cons, and other nefarious methods to get your money, trash your account, or get you banned AND How to prevent this from happening [Updated 2020-Nov-06]

Discounts or paid level up

Problem-
A company employee rage quits and decided to trash all the client accounts.

The company uses stolen credit cards to purchase the items, which is why they offer the discount and the fraud is discovered by the MMO company and your account is banned. If USPS money orders were used, you may be part of a criminal investigation for 2- 5 years.

The company waits a few months until you have recommended their services to all your friends, then has a fake data breach so they can trash you, and your friends accounts. Then a shell company sends you an advert for “fixing your account” or “purchase a high level account with rare items and loads of currency”

Tip-
Never give you account information to any company for any reason.

Don’t trust it unless it asks for your SSN.

321Trotter · April 10, 2019, 5:57pm

Other players (not me) explored these 1000 gem generators-- they turned out to be click bait that required personal info to join different kinds of marketing promotions .

It’s not worth the adware/spyware/phishing your phone/tablet can pick up with these scams.

Angeljt26 · April 10, 2019, 8:27pm
