WARNING: There are still reports of the so-called "fake coin" scam. Until this is fixed, we would advise YoVillians to NOT trade their valuable items.
Elektronika's TOP TRAPS List
- DOUBLE COINS – Claim to double/triple your money, sometimes with a ‘cheat code’ in 2 separate trades. You are asked to put the amount of money you want doubled, and to check off AGREE first. Once they get your money, they may kick you and run off with your coins. If what they claim is true, then they should be able to double your coins in ONE trade.
NOTE: DO NOT CHECK OFF AGREE UNTIL YOU SEE THE ITEM/COINS AGREED
UPON IN TRADE BOX.
- VIP – VIP STATUS IS NOT AVAILABLE, IT IS COMING SOON. Users will try to sell VIP cards/passes/tickets. Scammers have tried to pass of blue towels as VIP passes. The VIP areas (Sky Nightclub, Furniture Store) are still under construction. VIP robes and pink hair were accidentally released for a short time. A few lucky YoVillians got their hands on these items.
NOTE: YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN VIP BECOMES AVAILABLE. WHEN YOU
SIGN IN TO YOVILLE, AN ANNOUNCEMENT WINDOW POPS UP INFORMING YOU
OF NEW ITEMS OR ANY CHANGES.
- RATE AND GET PAID- Events may read “Rate and get 10coins”, “Rate, get a prize”. Once you give the owner a thumbs up, and ask for your coins or prize, owner will KICK YOU OUT.
- CHEAT CODES- There are no cheat codes. Cheat codes that claim to give you unlimited coins, speed or energy.
- CLONE ITEMS- Cloning tricks that claim to clone your items, thereby giving you more and more of any given item.
- PAGEANTS- There are fees for participating ($10, $25, $100 or even more). Participants beware, that the host could have a friend in the room that may have been selected as the winner ahead of time.
- NEW USERS ONLY- new YoVillians are lured into these events thinking that they will be given information, tips or instructions about the game. The owner will try to sell VIP tickets, double your coins or sell cheat codes.
- FREE STUFF/LEAVING YOVILLE- Once in their apartment, the owner is nowhere to be found.
- 50 PEOPLE IN YOUR APARTMENT, AND GET 5000 COINS- There is no reward for having “x” amount of people in your apartment.
NOTE:
- WHEN TRADING, REMEMBER TO CHECK THE DESCRIPTION OF THE ITEM TO MAKE SURE IT IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR. YOU MAY CHECK BY HOVERING YOUR CURSOR OVER THE ITEM IN THE TRADE WINDOW. A POP-UP WILL APPEAR WITH THE ITEMS DESCRIPTION.
- ON RARE OCCASIONS, PEOPLE DO DOUBLE COINS, DO GIVE YOU COINS FOR RATING, HOLD LEGITIMATE PAGEANTS.
- CHECK THE ROOM RATING OR THE MESSAGE BOARD FOR ANY INDICATIONS OF DISHONESTY.

Thanks for helping in the fight against scammers. Unfortunately there is no reward system in place. You're doing a great job in keeping YoVille a fun, scam-free place :)
