Popular Post AzlanKH Posted June 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) Hello there PSNP family! I hope you're well. There is this guy on the PSNP PS4 community who adds up trophy hunters and asks them for a game share, Please think before you give away any of your personal info, lads... Especially the young folks, save up money for your games and don't let people manipulate you into 'gameshare'. Gameshare is against the TOS of Sony. I will post some pictures for you guys to see what I mean. And you also can see how I dealt with it in a funny way. He asked a LOT of people, not only me.

Popular Post Kishnabe Posted June 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) I block or send a troll response. Usually they say they will offer you a Sony Promotional Gift Card. More annoying are those PSN code generator spam convos, they mostly target small level accounts who don't know what is going on. All my alternate accounts get tagged into it.

Yes, best way to handle stuff like this, like trolling an IRS scammer on the phone, waste their time, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaehyun1009 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 You'd think this kind of stuff is common sense, but I suppose younger kids can get manipulated by this kind of stuff more easily. Nevertheless thanks for letting the community know about unscrupulous actions like these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superstarmaste1r Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Things like this are another reason why I don't want a ps4. Things like game share are so unnecessary that I hate that is an option it turns out like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people with a retardation, yeah... And there are kids, they have to be careful with these kind of people. And there also are greedy people who want more games... And believe me, they will take the bait from such account thieves. Happenned to my 7 year old boyo with some guy in Malta. BEWARE! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS4 is more "limited" if that makes any sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to be a SJW or anything but this term gets used way too often in the absolute wrong context. There is nothing wrong with being mentally retarded as it is most often a birth or early infancy manifistation. It's like saying you'd have to be a special kind of (insert race/gender/sexual preference/religious or otherwise derogatory slang term) to accept an offer from that dude in the first place.

I don't know the eay i read it made my mind think like that though. Mostly I may change on saying the more people who use a latest console tends to do these stuff, I stay away from it and always be safe by not going to these online chats and stuff. 57 minutes ago, Kapika96 said: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Who the hell is this stupid to fall for this kind of thing? My 17 year old cousin asked me for my details so he could gameshare my PS3 games a few years ago. I laughed and said no. I refuse to believe someone would do this for a complete stranger. Different story if you're living with a friend or a significant other and you take turns buying games and shit, but I just don't want to ever put my account in a situation where it could be banned. Plus I don't trust anybody, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the top trophy hunters they all game share. This post is kind of useless IMO because its common knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a PSA can benefit a single person it is time well spent, so kudos to the OP for sharing! Oh and I consider myself a trophy hunter and I would never, ever gameshare.

Which is why you will never be near the top on the leaderboard. Why do you think people in the top 50 have so many games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Saionji Posted June 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2017 I recieved the same msg from this guy but I understood it like he wanted to use Share Play which is a completely legit function of ps4. He even send me screen shot of his games, honestly it looked pretty atractive at first but I realized how in the world am I suppose to find time to play his games while I cant find time to finish all the ones I have 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
