Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Technical Issues Victim of a SCAM, what can i do ?

Hi there!

I bought the game "DRM Free" version, on a CD Key website ( i will not name it, but reefer to it as "TGK" )... I think it's a scam :

I had to wait 12 hours to receive a mail, with a link to download the game and 3 patchs ... The link was weird, a domainname inculding the word "steamstore", but with a whois, i saw it's hosted by OVH since june 2014...

Anyway, i think it's too late to get my money back (i use paypal) , but how can i help to shut down this site ? Who should i report to ?

Sorry for my bad english ...

I've downloaded their files, it's the gog version of the game. I've contacted gog support too

If it's a scam site why don't you tell us the name of the site to warn others?

They obviously sold you a copy of the GOG version and all of the money went into their own pockets, Larian won't see a single penny.

Anyway, nobody can help you here. Buy the game directly from steam, gog, humble bundle, etc. if you want a legal copy.

You're right, the site is TheGameKeys.com ...
I often buy on sites like that, but first time i got a problem

And they dare to say it's legit :

I've contacted GOG about this, but i don't think this will be useful

Thanks for the warning. That sucks!

Hello WesB,

If you used Paypal then you have up to 45 days after purchase to open a dispute. You can do that through your PayPal profile under the Resolution Center.

You don't have to worry since its 100% certain you will get you money back but just give PayPal 15 week days to investigate the dispute.

You should buy on Steam or GOG. Don't trust shady sites such as this. Penny wise pound foolish no?
