onlinekeystore.com ripped me off!

I buy stuff from cd-keys store on a regular basis, i have run into this anti-fraud thing more times than i care to count, they just want to make sure you are who you say you are because a lot of cd-key sites have been scammed by bots buying up keys

usually what you have to do, is send them a picture with 1. the stores name and todays date 2. two pieces of ID (fx passport and drivers licence or drivers licence + creditcard)

I almost got screwed by one of the grey market shops before, but I got my money back by being persistent. They were selling me a Skyrim key before anyone knew it was hard region-locked Russian key. They didn't even claim that when they were first selling it. So I just stopped buying crap from those key sellers.

If my father would be a boss of a bank I'd buy keys from legit sites/companys, or stop lying, because no1 is reading this from that site, and even if they did, no1 would care :)

There is a reason why stuff costs less then they should, and even if it's a legit site, I wouldn't even go near it with that name.
And just uploading your passport ... not the best choice.

get paypal to get your money back. if you didn't use paypal, get your bank to get your money back

I've never had issues with that site, and neither have my friends, and we have made like 10 orders there in total.

I'd check with your bank. Banks have automated checks on debit and credit cards that 'flags' transactions as suspected fraud. The merchant - in this case onlinekeystore.com - would receive a declined transaction code from their merchant services provider, that code translates to a reason, in this case likely fraud checks.

TL;DR - Call your bank.

£4.99 from here, legit reseller that uses Metaboli, which is a distribution service sanctioned and licensed by publishers to sell their games digitally.

And it's cheaper that the one you were buying from, which is quite ironic.

Next up: freesteamgamesforsurveys.ru ripped me off!

Funny how so many people here are like "ZOMG these sites! It's scam, duh! So obvious." Yet I had the same thing happen to with Amazon and Steam as well. And loads of people can buy from these key resellers just fine.

Usually it's cheaper (and safer apparently) to buy games from traders than cdkey re-sellers. I'm pretty sure you could get any game on Steam for less than 30 euro from many different reputable traders.

You can go to the bank and refuse your money or to paypal support if you paid with that, you have 1 month for that. But it's not always easy.

I got the cd key in clear text now but its already been used

They require a scan id and a bill most likely, they once solde a used copy of bfbc2 and wouldn't refund or exchange so I did a chargeback and never went back

Buyer beware dude, buyer beware. Before throwing money at someone, check to make sure they're legit first.

You spent 30 euros buying Prey copies, and they only sent you one CD key?

Stick with GreenManGaming or GamersGate.

Anyway i called my father in the bank and forwarded all the mails and info to him. Have to see what he can do :=) (give them hell dad!)

I'll be honest, this was slightly entertaining to follow.

I'm such a jerk :l

Got a reply from them where they said i was a bad customer for contacting my bank and that they where going to IP ban me

Oh no! A shady key store ripped someone off? What a terrible surprise...

well you should only buy keys from authorized key stores anyway (amazon,greenmangaming,gamersgate,getgamesgo.....),not the shady resellers (g2play,mmoga...)

"this person is probably not even a customer and clearly has some hidden agenda by reviewing here"

Make a lot of paper airplanes, write I hate onlinekeystore.com, and then fly them :D. One day one of the airplanes will land on a staff from the site
