it really sucks that there are so many people trying to scam online, and in the gaming world especially.  It really makes me sick.

Really cool of Respawn to snuff those out as quickly as possible.

Typically if you haven't signed up for it and it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. I received a World of Warcraft beta invite despite the fact I never even played the game or signed up for any of their stuff. I always check the official website too. There will ALWAYS be news of these things on there, and if there isn't one should be extremely wary of it.

it's unbelievable. some people continue to sink lower and lower. they take someone's genuine excitement for a new game, and use it to scam them. The internet sure does bring out the worst in people.

It's admirable for Respawn to get this news out quickly, but then, it's also simply good business sense.  You want to protect your customers from the deviants who would steal from them, just as you'd want to protect your business from angry customers falling for the scams.  

Tomfoolery is abundant on the interwebs, beware!

These scams always disgust me. Trying to take advantage of a person's excitement for a game. The Internet is not a friendly place, my friend. Just as there are crime-filled streets in our world, there are scam infested, virus-holding websites in the dark stretches of the web. Always be cautious of what you click. Or if using a touch screen...um, touch? lol

Definitely pays to be skeptical. Just look here, every 8th post or will be from some spambot telling me how I can make money from home just noncing around!

I have't seen many scams based on real games before. There was that one ad that would tell me I could play Halo for free. That was pretty much the most phony unbelievable one I've ever seen.


Anyway, This game better be good for all the praise it's getting. If they implemented perks into the gameplay in any way then it's already a lame game, but if not, it could be a really fun and interesting game.

Wait so the $100 I paid for a two week beta was fake?!?!?!?!

That's just cruel. The internet is full of thieves sometimes.

This isn't new people. Every big release has this same problem. Why is this a story? Running out of things to write about Matt?

Glad they warned us. I totally would have signed up for a Titanfall beta.

Damn Russians...

I pretty sure I saw a scam site for a Smash Bros. 4 Beta

I hope no one has fell prey to these scams yet. But then again there's a sucker born every minute so it's possible they've made some money already.

They're getting good at this scam business aren't they...?

Would you kindly not phish my game brah?

This reminds me, I saw a story on the news last night about this 80 year old lady some guy tried to scam, she suspected him, and so over a two month period she got the scammer to send her money.  It made my night.

Titanfall! Titanfall! TitanFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLL!
