Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.

However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.

On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.

In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

Possible scammer alert.

Sent my paypal info and IGN, then got on in game and waited for 30 minutes. I PMed him and posted on the topic so EVERYONE could see. Finally he responded to a wall post saying he sent money and that we could finish the deal later on. So I get on my email and find a PayPal dispute.

his forum name is NIGHTZZ.

    I'm glad you haven't gave him the cars yet, wait and see wjat happens with the dispute before you give him them. Thanks for the notice anyway Tiff.
  • Rob96Rob96 Registered Users 1,070 Posts
    Haha I wish I was but i know a bit about them, they will just investigate the case but there is not much you can really do.
  • TiffxnyTiffxny Registered Users 1,330 Posts
    Ah, so I just don't do anything basically and it'll give the d bag his money back?
  • JdmlowkieJdmlowkie Registered Users 1,200 Posts
    His basically asking for a refund so wats the problem with tht you didn't give him nothing so I don't think it's a scam just my two cents :)

    You can always take screenshots of the PM and use that to help your case. If you go to Paypals resolution centre it might show you his chargeback claim and from there you can respond.

    He probably jacked the PayPal account from someone else and the original owner found out.

    Notice he's a "he" yet the PP account is under the name "Stacey".

    Regardless, simply do not deal with NIGHTZZ.

  • Darkd00mDarkd00m Registered Users 2,685 Posts
    Yep. ^^^ tiff unless he has solid evidence then u will get to keep the money. But the way he said it was his moms account,, could be true. Either way this goes to show how messed up some people can be!!! No more trading to new names for me!

    Seriously, you just can't trust anyone anymore. SMH I think you are good Tiff. You got all your bases covered with those screenshots.

    Tiff I wouldn't trust him even if he canceled the chargeback, he could always file another.

    Tiff was than a echeck transfer thru Paypal or a friends and family transfer?
  • Eddy 2013Eddy 2013 Registered Users 296 Posts
    Easy check the email u got from Paypal on than transfer and it will say echeck if it is .when u get echeck transfer u can send back as a refund right of way with echeck transfers buyer can open a dispute also u have to wait 7 days to get u money.with than said u guys know what to do..
  • Rob96Rob96 Registered Users 1,070 Posts
    He wants you to put mistake so he can screenshot it and use it to try and gain his rep back. As we said earlier Tiff just let paypal deal with his chargeback and forget about the idiot.
  • NIGHTZZNIGHTZZ Registered Users 976 Posts
    So I get everything fixed with the dispute, you have to click on the open issue and say it was an authorized transaction, then you have your money.
