Last 42 feedbacks for Dr.Hikkan | Indiegala is negative
Only positive feedbacks is coming from his alts (same person) TaubeTecInc | Indiegala
This guy is breeding level 8 with his alt accounts.


So you erased this scammers last 50 scam posts. Thank you very much but as long as you dont ban him he will open fake scam giveaways all the time and today after his 50 scam giveaways erased now he opened new scam giveaways and flooding the level 8 section of giveaways. These giveaways, all of them fake and all of them are scam and this guy is a total scammer. All his level ups coming from his own alts feedbacks.

Can you please ban this scammer so that we can all have a clean environment for giveaway section.

Thank you

Last 30+ giveaway from this guy is all negative, read at the forum area for details and now giveaway area is flooded by this Fake Scam giveaways.

Cur3d is 3D design program only licence is at their own site and they redirect buys only from steam. licence is for a 3d software and printing commercial licence. its not a game and its not sold at outside of steam.

The Ascent only sold at carnival type places its not a game, it needs specific equipment around 150K to build up and their agreeement is only at steam for licence than they redirect you to buy their equipment, setup is for large areas at carnival type places. ITS NOT TO BE SOLD OUTSIDE OF STEAM

The Hidden and Unknown is the same deal its licence never can be sold outside the steam. Last 30 keys to all this fake scam overpriced giveaways end negative.

Just search the forum history and you will find 100s of scam posts of these games from this user and his alts

Please ban this person from the giveaway area so that he cant open up any more scam giveaways

Two relatively cheap-to-make suggestions to Indiegala web developers:
1) Put the 'ceiling' on max IG Points per giveaway that's equal to $60-70 (60-70iS) like they do on Steamgifts. Not gonna solve the issue but it should slow down the rapid leveling of the giveaway abusers;
2) Add a "report" button to each giveaway page (or put the text & ask people to report bad giveaways via the existing report button on IG forums user page), so that the users could "voteban"/report directly on the giveaways from A) provably secondary accounts of another IG user, which is against the ToS or B) giveaway abuser that puts multiple high score giveaways to quickly level up with no/fake keys in them.

Your own official giveaways (as well as many user-created ones) have become next to useless thanks to bad faith players that create dozens of bot accounts to quickly level up with high score fake giveaways and multiply their chances at sweeping all the high profile wins.

On the flip side, making the life harder for the scammers means fair play among existing userbase AND more wins for the actual new visitors of the site, meaning potentially increasing conversion rate of new visitors to customers.

And what about lower Levels? Still alot in 0, shitty scammers with shitty expensive Games, no one cares and here Level 8, banned fast. Do something for all Levels and not just higher ones please.

Best would be also that there would be lists, Blacklist and Whitelist. Like if you are not intersted in a Game or DLC, put on Blacklist and next time they are hidden in the Giveaways.

And for the interested one, which you always enter, then on Whitelist. So with that Way, less Pages to click, cause there are hundreds uninteresting Games or DLCs. At least for me. :D

Think about that all. ;)
