GameInt (www.gameint.com) is the address of an online store that reports itself as a seller of in game currency for a large number of MMO games including flyff, wow, secondlife etc.
They have "testimonials" on their website with positive words in them. The website is well constructed and in most respects appears genuine. Their contact details only provide a gmail address and a "live chat" function that as far as I can see is never answered by an operator.
Once the buyer makes a purchase, the well honed site starts to look a little less completed. The sale confirmed screen is still mostly unfinished template giving the webdesigner instructions on what sort of information they should write there for their customers.
It also refers to a forum section in the site which does not exist.
The text for the site is a direct copy of another in game currency sellers site (no idea if thats genuine either but suspect its more genuine than the gameint scammers).
Their "conditions of use" "shipping" and "privacy" pages are all incomplete template text.
They only accept payment via paypal and western union (should have seen this coming really)
The items they sell range from approximatly $11US to $500US - fortunatly, my purchase was a very small test as this site fell into the "too good to be true" category.
In my experience, emails requesting any form of response are ignored - that is until a dispute is raised with PayPal.
* Then, suddenly, there was a rush of quick emails (not using the paypal dispute resolution centre) - insisting that the dispute be dropped before they would deliver the product.
* GameInt sent three messages through Paypal, all requiring the dispute to be dropped before they would deliver. They sent at least 15 outsite of Paypal assuring they would complete the deal etc etc.
* Many emails later - with offers of deliver half, i cancel the dispute and then deliver the other half refused... I requested a refund (.
* Within 5 minutes of me sending a "please refund my money" message through PayPal, GameInt falsely claimed that they had delivered and raised the dispute to a claim.
This site is a scam, ripoff, fraud site that takes real money, does not deliver product, and if pressed lies to their payment processor (PayPal).
Recommend that ALL stay away from this criminal operation.
