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.

O an shoutout to those in my inbox telling me he scammed them be before This guy is not a saint he just got caught. An o yeah glu said you cant sell THERE property cuz they own it soooo to all you smart ppl out ther that like getting robbed for weed an calling the cops nuff said...
I would imagine its not in their best interest to not condone logging into other peoples accounts and removing assets. Doing so would give users the inclination that GLU find this action acceptable which I'm sure is not in their best interest.
I have also requested digital licence ownership claims as I have receipt of purchases in game but digital acquisitions/product are possessed by others. Retrospectively my payment method recognises digital purchases and security we'll see how GLU progress prior to involving them. Ultimately what you did will be considered (see below for elaboration)
Please also see terms and agreements :
"You do not own the Virtual Currency that you purchase or the content that you acquire in the Applications in exchange for Virtual Currency (“Virtual Items”); you instead have a license to use the Virtual Currency in the Applications." My licence has been stolen.
Please also see code of conduct in forum @speedometer its been nice dealing with you now if you could be so polite to return my stolen cars and take your ban including device and ip ban I shall continue accordingly knowing RR will be better without cheats like yourself.
RR:
You agree that you will obey all federal, state and local laws, regulations and rules that apply to your activities when you access the Site or use the Applications, and you shall respect the rights of all other users of the Site and the Applications. In furtherance of the foregoing, by way of example and not as a limitation, conduct that violates these Terms and which will result in the revocation (with or without notice) of the licenses granted to you to the Site and Applications includes:
•Attempting to get password, account information or other private or personal information from another user or from Glu. (you hacked into my account)
•Defrauding or misleading Glu or engaging in any suspicious activity;
•Using or communicating exploits to gain an unfair advantage in the Applications.
•Using, developing or distributing “auto” software, “macro” software or other “cheat utility” software or applications in connection or combination with our Applications.
I would also like to state that I paid taxes on my purchase which constitutes as valid purchase meaning the licence belonged to me. You my friend have committed theft.
I dint give him access tho. Not unless he lied and meaningfully was fraudulent or misleading which is breaching T's and C's.
oh and hi @inmygarage / @speedometer two of the same ? your tone text and ongoings seem very similar.
Now who's legitimacy is is in question here ? He has everything I have nothing. I have 0 scams he's been suspected previously. My wife is ill I am quitting which was made knowledge to my friends way prior to post. there only 1 criminal here and i'll give u a clue it isn't me. I refuse to be drawn in further now as everything is under scrutiny, Next time I doubt he'll scam if he plays again after this.
That's where you'll have a tough time saying and proving that you were hacked and therefore, difficult to get any legal assistance on the matter.
Furthermore, the only legal action that could be possibly taken is, again, if you can prove your email was hacked.
And also, you'll need @speedometer birth given name before you can even persue any legal recourse, which the name is always provided by pay pal when money is sent/transferred.
Lastly, if in fact, @speedometer knowingly and purposefully scammed you out of your account and it's not just some kind of after sales, remorse and wanting to reneg on the deal. Then yes, he should have to give back control of your account/cars and if there's any cars missing, he should have to reimburse you for the lost items. And not to mention, stealing accounts under the rouse of purchasing them, is dirty as **** and said person should be banned.
I know a little about the legal system as I've studied criminal justice in college.
Ffs u are the untrustworthy here as u never completed deal end of story.
Scotty had a "hand" on the account. You had a "hand" on the account. Until the transaction was made ( you giving the money to the essential "other hand") the account didnt belong to you. You technically stripped it of its virtues without his consent. You werent given proper consent until he was paid. From what is evident- he wasnt paid. So furthermore and foremost. You scammed. Theres no way around it.
