wise words from the developers!!!

I quote from the help-page.

Question: How do i get VIP?

Answer: Currently the is no way to be VIP in the game (don't fall for scams). We are working on this feature, and trying to make sure it's super-cool before we release it. It should be done soon. A couple of VIP items (robes) accidentally got released into the game. We didn't think it was fair to remove them, so a very small number of people have a really cool robe.

Question: I traded with somebody and didn't get what I expected. (e.g. they said it was VIP pass but it was really a towel)

Answer: Some YoVillians come up with the darndest things. When trading you can mouse over any item and see the actual name. Also you should probably check the price of an item in the stores before trading with somebody. Teleport doors come in pairs. Make sure you get two (unless of course you want a decorative door that goes nowhere).

Question: I got scammed.

Answer: We ban and deactivate tons of scammers based on reports every day. The only way to stop the scammers is for you all to stop falling for scams. You should treat your coins like real money. If somebody walked up to you on the street and told you they would double your money if you gave them $5, you wouldn't trust them and would just walk away. Do the same in YoVille.

Lotto-scam


New event, This guy Firazzo wanted to charge 10 coins for a lotto-game he made up. Then maybe someone could win. Then i recomended this blog and i was kicked out.

Rate and win a TV


Classic scenario!
This guy started an event tht said, rate up, 500th wins TV.
I rated red and it turned out that he only had 12 votes haha.
Redicilous...

Please dont rate red at sales!

This has nothing to do with scams, i just wanted to say it.
This has happened to me aswell and its not fun.
An appartment doesnt look nice when its a sale but tha place probably doesnt look like that when its not a sale.

"Rate and get coins"

This is a scam i've seen a lot lately.
The scammer will start an event that says something like "Rate thumbs up and recieve 20 coins" or "Rate thumbs up and the 200th will recieve 500 coins"
This is most likely also a scam.
After you have rated tha owner will simply kick you out.

Lavalamps!

It can also be risky to buy lavalamps on sales.
A scammer may try to sell you a big lavalamp for 700 coins (retail is 1000 coins) and then when you get back to your place you have bought a small lavalamp (retail is 500 coins)
So be careful.
