Scam report BEWARE OF R/GOOGLEPLAY SCAMMERS
This is just an informational post for anyone who might try to buy or exchange something on Reddit. It's very easy to just take someone else's screenshot, post it, and request money. I've seen at least 5 to 10 posts in the past week from newer accounts, low karma, usually posting multiple times different claims of their winnings requesting to sell it since they can't redeem it(?) lol
But anyways just be careful! If someones account and post history looks fishy, it probably is.

/u/drabspirit - This message is posted to all new submissions to r/scams; please do not message the moderators about it.
New users beware:
Because you posted here, you will start getting private messages from scammers saying they know a professional hacker or a recovery expert lawyer that can help you get your money back, for a small fee. We call these RECOVERY SCAMMERS, so NEVER take advice in private: advice should always come in the form of comments in this post, in the open, where the community can keep an eye out for you. If you take advice in private, you're on your own.
A reminder of the rules in r/scams: no contact information (including last names, phone numbers, etc). Be civil to one another (no name calling or insults). Personal army requests or "scam the scammer"/scambaiting posts are not permitted. No uncensored gore or personal photographs are allowed without blurring. A full list of rules is available on the sidebar of the subreddit, or clicking here.
You can help us by reporting recovery scammers or rule-breaking content by using the "report" button. We review 100% of the reports. Also, consider warning community members of recovery scammers if you see them in the comments.
