So you have found a group or page promising you thousands of farmcash, Pink Elephants or massive farm expansions? All you have to do is join and invite all of your friends? Wow this is great! Except it’s not, it’s a total scam. Read on to find out why and what you can do to prevent this!
This guide was created to prevent users of FarmVille from being scammed and cheated by the massive influx of fake groups on Facebook. ALL of the FarmVille groups designed to get (items, Farmcash, unreleased items, extra coops, etc…) are fakes. The only way to get these things (you can’t get unreleased or extra coops, this is cheating and/or using glitches) is to play the game and buy Farmcash from the official FarmVille game buying section or get your friends to gift you items from the game (none of the Facebook apps claiming to gift villas or anything else are real!) and lastly to enter OFFICIAL contests that are ONLY available on the official Zynga/FarmVille forums located here: FarmVille Forums
Note: Recently Zynga has begun giving out minor free items like trees and experience points on your notifications. These are real, no others are.
It isn’t hard to work out the fakes if you know what to look for, any of the below are obvious signs that this is a fake group.
Become a fan/member and suggest/Invite All your Friends (any group requiring this is fake and not worth your time)
Once (insert random number) of your friends join you will receive the item/s
If you do not invite friends you will not get (random item being promised)
Over half of your friends must join
Please wait up to 1 day for (insert random “free” thing) to be applied
Please wait up to (random number) of hours for (promised item)
Join to unlock (26×26, 30×30 or 40×40, etc…) farms!
Join and receive a Pink Elephant! (Or any other unreleased animals and/or items)
Etc… If it looks too good to be true, IT IS.
