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.
SCAMMER ALERT....!!! BEWARE!!!
I know that it was foolish of me to give that big of a sum first but I hadn't played in ages and wanted to get some buyers and the guy was looking really legit and has like 30+ vouches, so I really thought it should go well..... BUT apparently everyone has a price where he/she becomes a SCAMMER.
He said that he was waiting for players to send him money in PP so he doesn't have to use his bank and told me to wait, so I did wait. After 10 mins or so, he just texted me "sent" (without ever sending anything) and unfriended me. :@ So, please beware when/if doing transactions with this guy!!!!

I hope I recover from this big hit but at least I've learned my lesson.
I thought you were honest man, so when you texted me "sent" (as explained in my original post) and went offline, I thought it was one of those old bugs the game did when a player was online for all others but not for you, so I went to restart (cause normally that fixed the issue).
Of course, you having 30+ vouches, I would have never thought you will be a scammer, so I didn't make screenshots (silly me) before I quit the game and when I reopened it, I went to realise that you have actually deleted me from your friends list and took my 20m without even sending a fucкing dime to me...
Why did I send you all the 20m in one go instead of for example 4 x 5m? I really went forward after the first 5m and didn't ask you to send me the money through PayPal as I didn't want you to incur 4 times the PayPal charges but.... I guess, I paid the charges for being a fool.
I hope someone scams you for that big amount of money, so that you can see the disappointment you feel in yourself for acting so naive and trusting someone you never actually knew.
Good luck to all of you guys who are dealing with this guy even after you have read this thread!
If the transaction is for a sum above 5m, I would really think again before dealing with this guy.
