do not give donation to this fictious outfit. Number became inactive after 2 weeks and after contacting several times finally received second no. with only 100 days before expirey. They totally do not respond after that.

If they have a physical address in the US, that should be enough of a deterent.

Good point ticktack... Although you still have to aware and careful. I have trusted this site for a long time and we know too well that every bushel has a bad apple. But, at least here, the bushel is big and bad apples are few.

Last year I made the mistake of trying to get codes from someone from JAPANIKS or something like that.

Never heard from them. Never replied to any questions.

I have stuck to the peeps here ever since.

I appreciate the heads-up but isn't this the same place that we use to check our donations? I just looked at the post in the stickies to be sure and it says go to a website called iksserver.com. Does this mean it can't be trusted either?
