Okay how do I report players who have scammed? Because I would prefer a written reply rather than just hitting the report button.

Many people come to me for help to get items back because I used to scare players with "bull (beep)" and they would normally give back the item, but if that didn't work you would contact someone to "borrow" that users account (I know its wrong) but it was effective. Like I know hackers where bad but I always found scammers worse they prey on the weak in the game, for example right now my friend she has been scammed out of her white cupid wings, now normally I would have just contacted someone to sort the guy out. But you change and get a change of :heart: before I left I gave away which was 6mil at the time now worth 30mil worth of items and carry on helping players with either decorating, or if they need some money for an item.

(Don't ban because of the past you already stole my 300 pants >.< ) Zynga's fault not yours but still >.<

(Working on getting the guys ID and name (Was a lot easier with old website) (Just saying) (Also miss those balloons D: had all of them >.> )

Enough about the past shouldn't the forums have a reporting section? Also since a lot of people rely on me to report or I say "yeh I will get them sorted out" just to comfort that user :L But really I used to mainly just report if it was a petty crime.

How to report Scammers that's the main question? Ignore the rest I just waffle on :L I mean like how can I report by giving username, id, item scammed etc. On zynga you could used to report via website give name and id , item stolen etc. and someone would get back to you in a week or so.

Obsession xo

question.
1. Is bull beep the same as bull lony?
2. How in the world can you borrow an account? Do you mean they give you their password and you go into thier account right?
If that is the case, I would like to know why you are not called a hacker using scare tactics on fearful kids and adults. What makes you think you can play vigilantie in yo? We have big vikings right?
3. Thank you for the info.
Now Big vikings has my butt even more.
and the rest of what you said?
WHAT???

@ZipLocket I speak in past terms Since I quit back in 2011 (At end of that year)
1) Bull Beep = Bull (S**t) :L (Beep = Blocking out the swear word)
2) How did someone borrow an account? Well back in 2008-2010 Facebook or Myspace didn't have a lot of security it was a lot easier for the people who I knew to borrow accounts only needing an email and then just guess the password and most of the time people base there password on either a family member or something they really like then add either there birthday or date of birth on the end of the password. Which allowed people to borrow peoples account.

Carrying on from 2, I only came back online 2-3 weeks ago before when I used to play was back in 2011 when zynga still owned the game and there wasn't really any mods online actually I only saw that white ninja guy once back in 2009/ 2010, other than that if people got scammed most people wouldn't know what to do, so I saved them time by emailing zynga using there report button on the zynga website and would give the name of the user and ID.

You say now we have Vikings well yeh we may have new owners but people are still being scammed everyday and what do people do when they have been scammed and don't know where to go or don't know what to do? That's when I step in as a buddy and calm them down and give them some help by either posting here on forums and reporting the situation to try and help that user. (Used to post a lot on the old yoville forums).

None of you actually read the question at the beginning, the question was asking "How do I report players who have scammed"? There is no Report section on forums, so where do people go to complain?

BVG says there is not hacking going on in the game. When in trade a little box comes up tell people they are not responsilbe and also what to look out for .
Everyone knows not to allow others to have your pass words. If you get scammed it is actually your own fault.
When can we write a ticket?
We can write a ticket when it was an error from the trade box. As if it accepted automatically and you never accepted the trade.

What you are talking about was In MS and in FB a very long time ago. No one ever Borrowed my account from MS or from FB.
I think the Borrowing accounts what you must be referring to are those that LIVE in same home or are cousins.. It is not borrowing an account. It is being dumb and allowing others access to your account. Now we have a log in code we can use with phones.
There is no way a person can "borrow and account now. "

We are not able to get ID's as we once did. I wish we could then I could report the kids in here playing at are only 8- 12.

with the new trade around..it has eliminated 90% of getting scammed, matter of fact you can't get scammed..you can only get fooled into making an unfair trade..this is irrelevant cause you're talking about the past (or are you cause im confused...) lol..

If some really feels they have been taken advantage of, have them go into their game...look to the top of the game page and locate the "help" button. Click on that and fill in the information explaining as much as possible. If BVG feels someone was treated unfairly, they can take care of the issue... if they chose not to do anything, they will let that person know. They don't leave you hanging like it used to be... your "friend" will find out pretty quickly. I hope this info helped.

oops, I see this is an older thread.. but am going to leave the answer as I feel they needed a better explanation

...this is not borrowing...
...this is hacking...
...to get someones email and guessing password for log into thems account...?!?...
...so you said...you simply hacked the account of the scammers and gifted the scammed persons the items back?!?...
...hm...how can you know that no one ever lied on you getting scammed just for making you a hacker out of them friends... :?:

...I truly don't wanna wear your Karma!...

...if you want report someone, hit the report button...
...AND...do yourself a favour and read the TOS and forum rules!!!...

...if ppl got scammed...which is nearly impossible with the new trading system...then mostly...
...because of those ppl don't take enough time to read and see and check what they should!...
...and you are going now and play *self-justice* 'cos of ppl own mistakes?!?...

...have you ever thought about that those scammed ones maybe need those lessons to take more attention in future acting?!?...

...and about your question -> report button!...

...hopefully those ppl you are gonna take care of can proof that they got scammed and didn't scam you with false informations...

...there's a lot of role-play in this game!!!...

...*hugs & love*...
