Hello all,
I am writing this as a warning to prevent others players being scammed like myself. Do not under any circumstances make any donations to this server.
The server in question is GER/EU - Entspannte Verbannte - The Exiled Lands (PC).
This server was up until recently advertising for donations to be made in order to support the service in return for a Discord donators rank and a in game reward. This was requested via a “Paysafecard” where you essentially deposit funds and then you provide the PIN so that it can be redeemed.
I did exactly that, I made a donation to this server and provided the PIN only for the server admin to say that it couldn’t be redeemed because I was not based in Germany. This was not mentioned anywhere on their discord page whatsoever.
Due to the circumstances, I respectfully requested the owner to honour the intended donation as it had been made in good faith and I wanted to support the server. The owner suggested I could withdraw the funds however this incurred a 60% charge to myself. The only alternative was to use the funds to purchase a gift card however none of the options available were suitable to me. I explained to this to the owner of the server who accepted my point of view and agreed it should be honoured and also apologised for the inconvenience.
Anyway a few days passed and the owner/admins kept ignoring me and not honouring their end of the bargain so I subsequently made a ticket in their discord to complain. I ended up speaking with an admin called Odem who was rude, arrogant and tried insinuated it was a scam. Odem did not complete any due diligence whatsoever by speaking to the owner and instead immediately banned my character and my username from the game from discord and the game. I tried to explain that their discord server was advertising in game items however the admin then promptly took down the “Donations” tab in the discord server.
This is just a friendly reminder to all players to be extremely cautious when dealing with this server.
