Today was a successful day for Big Viking Games, current owners of YoWorld as over 5 notable scammers were caught in the act and banned from the game.
After receiving numerous reports from players around the city and eventually investigating a YouTube channel dedicated to busting scammers, moderators from BVG caught up to the alleged scammers in the Alton Tower district of the city. Names have not been announced as of now, but Viking Drew issued this statement;
"Names of the scammers are obviously out in the public due to all of the controversy surrounding them, though they were later changed to avoid being caught. We don't really feel comfortable releasing IPs and names as we still need to protect players privacy no matter what crime they have committed."
Fellow friends of the scammers declined to comment when our reporters caught up with them at Vinny's Diner on the west side of the city.
The crimes include: Money laundering, pyramid schemes and a price jacking business. A prostitution ring was also shut down, but had no connection to the scammers.
No more information was given about the massive bust as only Drew agreed to speak with us. More on this story tomorrow.
