IMVU Scammer Verdict

IMVU-Scammer-Review6

On IMVU, there are definitely organized scamming operations going on. However, there is also enough information about how to avoid them. Their support pages give a lot of tips on how to identify scammers and do and don’t.

Those scammers are mainly offering free credits to lure their victims to some sort of fake sites. They make people do things such as buying fake items, downloading some sorts of files and asking them for their account information so they can hack those accounts.

The results would be the loss of credits and personal information to be shared with unwanted third parties.

Thus, users should not go to external sites and share their IMVU account information or buy anything.

The other scamming concern would be IMVU’s operation itself. A lot of people got banned for no reason. Their credits are taken away along with their creations. To avoid this, users should follow their rules and regulations.
