There's a message going around that if you follow certain steps you get free diamonds but even if you follow them, you don't get any diamonds. Then they have comments of people that supposedly did get them. What's going on? Is it real or not? Answers please
Free diamonds is a euphemism for free virus, free spam, and sometimes relinquish account control.
This reminds me...
I was walking past a tall wooden fence the other day, you know the kind you see outside a building site. As I walked along beside it I heard chanting coming from behind the fence further up... they were chanting numbers, or rather just one number.
"Thirteen, thirteen, thirteen, thirteen, ..." they excitedly chanted. It sounded like a small crowd, young and old; men, women and children. All of them saying the same number over and over.
As I approached I saw a small hole in the fence just big enough to look through. The hole was right where the sound appeared to be originating from. So, with the crowd continuing to chant "... thirteen, thirteen, thirteen, thirteen" and it seeming to become more intense as I leaned down to place my eye at the hole and work out ♥♥♥ was happening in there.
Just as I put my eye to the hole a small finger like that of a child poked me in the eye and the crowd cheered loudly and started chanting again..
"Fourteen, fourteen, fourteen..."
It is definitely a scam, do not click on any link provided for those.Quote:

How do you know it is REALLY Supercell or scammers? http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...sk-for-Your-PW see Meonhoc's post for that in that link.
Those replying "oh it works!" and blah blah work for the scammer company (obviously).
Please do NOT fall for this people.

Good food for thought!Quote:

Loved the hole-in-the-fence story!
trust your instincts.
And regarding the PCH story, be very careful about who you give personal information to over the phone.
Oh, of course. :) I probably should have mentioned I was cautiously observing their tactics and endgame. They didn't ask me anything personal though, which was very weird. I wouldn't have given it out anyways. They only asked me if my mail had come, as I should have received a letter I won and if I wanted to be on TV because "seeing is believing". Maybe they were new at scams lol.Quote:

One of the steps required to get that trunk of diamonds is to post a comment saying that you won. That's why they have so many idjits "working" for them. ;)
Of course, those commenters only ended up winning cubic zirconia, which Tom and Supercell don't accept. They know a diamond when they see one!
That has got to be one of my favorite forum posts of all times! I am laughing so hard it hurts but I don't mind.Quote:

I fully agree with ilovehayday, most of these people will lure you in with some kind of thing like "free diamonds, but what really is a url link which you push and they have your full information, your account which you had accessed. I tried it on a different gaming network but thing was is that I was not going to fall for the old trick in the book. You should be warned now, if you fall for it, they have everything. Be smart and report it towards Supercell, let them deal with the wrong sorts of people.Quote:
