DGK Giveaway Group - Bunch of underage idiots?

Closed

Got invited to a group called DGK Giveaway Group, looked a bit fishy at the start but I joined it and entered chat.

Spoke to one of the admins there, seemed friendly enough. Told me to invite all my friends for the chance to win 3 games. Quoth him "The 100 people that invite the most people each win 3 games. Once you have done that, put GDK in front of your name and subscribe to our youtube." Looked on the youtube channel, each video consisted of a mini call of duty quickscoping clip which led me to believe that they were all underage.

 After that, I looked on the group profile. Apparently, they  are sponsored by ["GDK"](http://www.dgk-skateboards.com/)(A skateboard/clothing company), Razer, Machinima and EA. Of course, I thought this was a load of bullshit and I added him and tried to coax him into chat so me and a few other people could question him.

Here are some logs

The Group Profile

A screenshot if he decides to change it.

TL;DR A 12 year old's plot to get youtube partnership.

Sorry, forgot to say. Special thank you to TheRealDrAwesome and BloodyRo.

If this is deemed as calling someone out or if it is against the rules, I'll remove it.

This thread is probably unnecessary. I think most people who read any part of the original "recruiting" thread understands the nature of the beast.

Oh, I was looking for the wrong keywords. Thanks.

Looking at the 1000+ members of his group, I'm gonna say people don't understand.

I was pretty annoyed by that, as I'm a fan of DGK boards.

Why would somebody pretend to be affiliated with a company which has nothing related to what they're doing?

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm not sure, but I am affiliated with Chuck Norris and a Velociraptor, so if you give me your name, date of birth, social security number, and at least 2 credit card numbers, I will investigate it for you.

To give an image of respectability.

On another note, it would be awesome if DGK did start promoting on SG.

But the giveaway is not chance.
Games given too those "who get the most people to join"

Never said it was chance, there are no giveaways. It's a desperate ploy to get youtube partnership.

13 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

It wouldn't work anyway. 280 subscibers isn't enough to do anything, and if any ONE of those subs e-mails youtube and says anything about what he's doing, he'll get his youtube account shut down and all his possible funds revoked.

Wat xD I wouldn't enter that giveaway. And how can he tell how many friends we invited? There is no way to do that(the X friends in the group thing doesn't mean you invited them).

ha-ha you got banned from chat...

jeez - what a tight-ass chat room that is - no links!! no questions!!
Yeah, sure sounds like a bullshit ploy to me - and what's gonna end up happening is they will say the prize could not be awarded due to all the harassment and spamming (nobody followed the rules and kept asking questions in chat... wah!)

It looked like crap when it was first posted - glad I stayed away. Curious to see if 100 people actually get 3 games of their choice.

I'd sub, just to mail youtube about their scamming for youtube partnership. Not that they'd get it, their videos all suck.

Thanks for posting this. That guy's vocabulary and grammar aren't even close to a 23-year-old's.

Also, they just lock the chat and then leave? Who does THAT?

If it's a sham group and he is really not going to give away the promised games, the group can be reported.

In time they'll be reported I guess. Their treatment to users in the group chat is unexcusable

He preempted on that. As soon as I added him, he pretty much ignored it. I guess I'm not DGK material.

A "law suite"? Sounds intriguing. I've been looking to replace my rattan 3-piece for some time.

13 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yeah I was threatened with a law-suit after constant asking of why s Skateboarding Company would Sponsor 30 Second Call of Duty Montages... Hopefully if EA ever responds to my email maybe we can get some clearance on this so called "giveaway" Group. They will hopefully take care of them and they will go crying to their mom when their account is banned.
