Upon thinking about various scams that I have seen on YoVille, I remembered another one that was not listed on the main page.

It almost always goes something like this:'If you've been scammed, let me tell you how to get all your coins back - and then some.  You can email YoVille and tell them that you were part of a scam, but don't tell them how much you lost.  Give them a ball park amount or something.  Then they will put THOUSANDS of coins back into your account.  TRUST ME, I just had them put all my coins back'

(Ever heard of the old saying 'If it sounds too good to be true, than it probably is?  Umm, yeah, that applies here too)

Said Scammer THEN tells you to email YoVille at XX email address.  I've seen dozens of variations.  YoVillesupport@live.com, YoVilleemailsupport@gmail.com ETC...  'In your email include your email address, YoVille Name and your PASSWORD (DING DING DING.  This is where your red flags should start popping up all over the place)

Bottom line, YoVille Support will never, EVER ask you for your password.  NEVER.  I can't stress this enough. 

Im pretty sure you can guess what happens next.  Said Scammer then logs into your account and robs you blind. 

There are scammers ALL over YoVille.  And sadly many people fall for these scams and that makes me sad.  Our goal here is to hopefully help everyone spot these fake, scamming a-holes a mile away and not get taken for everything they worked so hard to build up in their YoVille world.

Hold tight to all you have on YoVille.  Together we can stop them!

Cheers,
Martini
