| Sponsor Announcement I think many of you already noticed that banner on top. It's a site where it allows Trickster Online players get free MyShop items gifted to their account. There has been a debate whether or not the site is legitimate. It wouldn't be there if it was a scam, I wouldn't publish a scam to our members.
Here's a copy of their FAQ:  |
Originally Posted by FAQ Q: How come GamerGifts is giving out free stuff? How is this possible? How does GamerGifts benefit?
A: It's made possible because our advertisers pay us to put their offers on GamerGifts. Members(you) are given points on completion of the offers.
Q: How do I get my free gift?
A: Complete the various offers available.
Q: I've completed the offer, but there isn't a button for me to click to say I have completed it.
A: It's done automatically for you, if you have completed the offer our partners will credit us. Then our system will credit you. This avoids duplication and fraudulent activities.
Q: How long does it take for the offers to be approved?
A: Up to 48 hours, on some offers, instantly.
Q: How long does it take for me to receive my gift?
A: Within 48 hours unless otherwise stated on the front page.
Q: You need my IGN(In-Game-Name) to send me the gift, how do I submit it?
A: After placing your order for your gift, send in a support ticket with your IGN.
Q: I've ordered, but my extra points all went away why is that?
A: They didn't really go away. If you look closely at the required points to get your next gift, it has already been automatically added so the required points is less than normal.
Q: Do I have to put in my real information?
A: Yes, you can get banned if you do not.
Q: Will there be more offers?
A: Yes, we're going to add more offers when the time calls for it.
Q: Will there be more prizes?
A: Yes, you can also send in a support ticket with an idea for a prize. If it's good, we'll add it! |

| Well, Baikin, can say all day that it's safe but it's ultimately you guys' choice to trust them.
Don't want to take our word for it? Do your own research! Just Google it - if the site were known scammers I'm sure you'll find tons of rants posted over many different forums. The site isn't just Trickster.
As much time and work as Baikin and Metal have put into this site - I highly doubt they'd risk losing members by posting a scam site to suck out all your passwords and eat your soul. | | (Offline)

| no,its not a scam.when they ask u for a password they dont mean ur password for trickster,its for making an account,the site was alot like urgift for MS,you do offers(surveys and stuff like that),get points and buy stuff with it.the reason its free is because baikan and metal get paid for putting up the offers,using that money they spend it on myshop points and make a profit fro it at the same time.theirs no scam as i baikan and metal gave me the nx cash from maplestory so i wouldnt doubt them on it.besides,its not like they want ur username and password for trickster.BTW metal,what happened 2 urgift,i put an order for i think 25$ of paypal so i can buy stuff for trickster(i didnt knew u made this site or urgift was before it),anyways i finished the offers and after a week of pending i came bak 2 the site and it was gone?is this gunna happen 2 trickster also? | | (Offline)

| if its anything like the site i use 2 go on 2 get nx cash then it should work like this,1st u make an account(pretty simple and if you dont know how 2 make it then u need serious help),then u go 2 the offers and sort it by how you want,some offers required credit cards i think but most not really.after uve done that pick an offer,some give more points than others although they can be shorter,it just depends on how much they are payin baikan and metal to put the up these surveys and offers.most of these surveys are kinda like the annoying pop-ups u get asking if u want a free iphone etc.,basically just fill it in with correct info.although i do suggest u make an alternate email for spam and send if an offer ask u for email than just put it in ur altenate email because you will get ALOT of junkmail,some of them will ask u for ur phone number(i once told my them my phone number and they sent me a phone call only 2 discover i wasnt interested and was only in it for the free stuff) if they do ask u for a phone number u can get a voice mail that will act like one here -http://privatephone.com/- and make an account,when they ask u for ur phone number just put in the voicemail number u get from this site,all of the calls u will get from the offers will be sent their,for most of these you can get an auto filler and finish each surveys in a minute.Btw,if you did have a urgift account,my forum name was timoneom there,thats why what i posted sounded so familiar 2 sum of you who used urgift. | | (Offline)

| Part of this that I don't like is that with some of them, to get the points you have to fill out forms for things you don't need, like scholarships or a free magazine subscription or for buying a car (or good lord, a HOUSE), with real information.
So you get points, but you also get mail from these people and have to deal with canceling a magazine you never wanted, samples you may or may not need, and a whole lot of people now knowing your name and address and that you're not against filling out a survey. If they're anything like regular solicitors, they'll be on your back for the forseeable future, asking if you want a free this or that if you just DO THIS, and you'll have to go through heaven and hell to get them off your phone or mailbox.
It's like donating the the Red Cross or the American Lung Association. You can't do it just once. They bug you for more till you're sorry you ever did it in the first place. (Not that there's anything against donating to a worthy cause. I just wish they'd let you be.)
I guess that's my two cents and a bit more. I suppose if you like getting mail this would be the thing for you. | | (Offline)

| no you don't need paypal unless you want to get paypal money rather than get gifted a trickster item,when u get all the points i believe they will ask for the name of ur main character so they could gift it 2 u in the same way you woulod gift ur friend something from trickster,by going on the site...i don't see why evryone is having a spazz attack over it"OMG I DETECT SCAM,GET THE #$%% AWAY FROM ME,NO ONE GO ON THIS SITE BLAH BLAH BLAH",its not asking you for your username or password so id trust it,but sure if you feel like its a scam and its trying 2 get ur trickster account than fine with me,being careful never killed anyone. | | (Offline)

| I'm sure the site is legit. Of course it asks for your password, how will you log into their site? Paypal email is OPTIONAL and only really neccessary if you want the $30 Paypal gift. And blah blahs.
I pretty much won't do this because I generate money faster than I do any one of those offers for points =_______= You don't NEED a real number/address etc for any offer, just have it so it looks real enough. | | (Offline)
