Prairie_Falcon_ Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DTSYmPPUMAAAQHf.jpg:large got this psn message this morning anyone else get one?

Sergen Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I think anyone who is stupid enough to fall for messages like that really deserves to get scammed, the message couldn't have been made more obvious that it is a scam. Sony would never send people a message with a name like his mentioning that they are a representative of Sony who wants to give them $50, they would already know your PSN email address and would send the code to you automatically if they deemed you worthy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Leaderboards Posted January 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Just delete it, don't respond. Then block. Also any accounts that have no trophies and they send you a message just saying "Hey", just delete and block. And for the young people, in life, people don't give you stuff, they take. Give them nothing! Edited January 11, 2018 by Trophy Huntress 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I see it, no one should be sending me a message unless they are from here or on my PSN friends list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenewbe Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 almost as bad as those chain messages from a "sony representative" that would normally result in me blocking them. 22 minutes ago, Trophy Huntress said: Also any accounts that have no trophies and they send you a message just saying "Hey", just delete and block. those dam bots trying to make friends, leave me be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Bobs_Beeper Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Create a fake email account and give it to them and see if they do send you $50 and a free download ? But seriously these type of things are why I have my messages set to friends only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Just say you accept. Realistically if they were legit (yeah, right), they could send the code through to you via PM. Xbox has done this countless times, and Sony have emailed me codes a fair few times too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potent_Delusions Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Well, at least a thick illiterate moron made the message so it should be obvious to ANYONE that this message is fake.

That stupid fucking Destiny 2 add was bullshit. Sony better cut that shit out. I don't care if you toss ads in the newsfeed, it makes sense there. But, shoving an add on my home screen that I have to delete to get rid of? Nope. Too far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can disable those! Shouldn't have to, of course, but at least there is currently an option to disable the ads: https://www.google.com/amp/s/kotaku.com/how-to-stop-ads-from-appearing-on-your-ps4-homepage-1821585507/amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
