Explain this scam DM to me please · · 3 likes

Hey guys, 

 

recently received the following message: 

 

“Hi there, I am helping new players make money! I will pay you $25,000 for every attack you make on me! All you have to do is click this link: (I’ve removed link and player name)” 

 

I presume this is a scam, as they could’ve sent me some money without attacks.  But what is their hustle? Why would someone want a noob to attack them? 

thanks for your time.

Thanks for the responses guys, much appreciated. 

thanks to whomever moved the post to the correct category, I’ll be sure to post future questions in QnA from now on. 

Interesting, I’m sure it must be horrible to get mugged, revived, mugged in a loop whilst being farmed… I’m not a worthy target yet but I’ll change it to ‘nobody’ so I don’t go through that treatment. 

thanks again for your input, only my second day so still learning some of the more nuanced parts.

Hey guys, apologies for noob question and if it’s in the wrong place (let me know if there’s a more suitable spot for future questions ). EDIT - Post now moved and I know where to put future questions. 

just ended up in hospital and pressed a few buttons. One changed the permissions on who is able to revive me. I think I’ve set it back to fully open ( anyone can revive ), but I’m not 100%. 

what is the benefit to not being revived? It seems odd there’s an option that prevents strangers from doing it.…

Guess you get this a lot.. 

 

eager new player, work full time and have partner so generally 5x20min sessions plus maybe a few hours each night depending on rl. 

2nd day but get the gist and have played marathon games for years. Each game has its quirks and the depth of torn ( do you still read it as Tom? ) makes it seem like if you’re not in the know and playing deep, then you’re wasting your time. 


don’t have pc and spreadsheets etc so not going to be number crunching, but happy to get involved and contribute somewhere if I can learn and gain from it. Don’t truly know what direction to take, but tempted to get into the tech/fraud/hack side of things, but I’m still a bag boy at the grocers so… 

 

guides ( the one you use for reference, not just the hand-holding intro ) would be helpful and anyone who’s been around the city a few times and has a bit of spare time to help out would be genuinely appreciated. Can’t reply always and can’t guarantee I’ll be able to hit small faction war windows etc, so I’m not ideal, but will cooperate as best as possible. 

dm if you’d like, feel free to Ctrl+v in comments with links etc. thanks for your time. 

TL:DR eager noob wants to know your secrets, I know the kind of game, but want to know torn and appreciate the nuances. Not able to be truly competitive as I can’t commit to times, which is a bit wack but happy to get deep and contribute

No wonder see couldn’t see the difference. I’m now mad at OP for making me look, now that it’s reverted.

Sorry if this breaks any rules. 

Does all artwork feature the artist names in the final piece? As example, ROFL has contributed to many pieces, and the word/name ROFL is on the artwork. Will the purchased piece have this present or removed? 

Some real nice digital art here, either way :)

Sorry for your loss. I hope you have someone close for support. Remember to look after yourself while grieving, it can be easy for things to slip a little. Take care and take some solace that he’ll always live on through you and your memories.
