New evidence is showing Evony, an online popular gaming site as a fraud and a fake!
SITES:
This isn't new, it has been widely rumored that Evony was a scam but now has been proven.
Detail and user recalls give expericences best related to Trojans and Adware:
“Something happened this morning. Just when i logged in my account to play Evony, my Anti-Virus detected 4 trojans horse in explorer.exe. They came right when i entered my server. I am no expert about virus so I don” - An Evony user
“Hello, i would like to inform ye that your site is infested with Adaware. http://www.pctools.com/mrc/infection…e.Mostofate.E/ Every time i log onto evony this comes as part of it. I have tried it several times, deleting it THEN just opening up evony and presto its back on my Computer. Its the “monitors the users browsing activity.” that im not paticulary fond of !” - Another Evony user
First on the list of issues is that is had been alleged that the developers of Evony have been linked to a Chinese gold-farming company called WoWMine. The company that developed the game is Universal Multiplayer Game Entertainment (UMGE). A quick search of the web for information about this company showed up nothing. The websites for UMGE are currently unavailable as of the writing of this article.
Second on the list is that the viral ad campaign itself contained a trojan called SHeur.AYRM. It would appear that a computer could be infected with this trojan by clicking through on some of the Evony ads hosted on the game. The infected code has been removed from the game as noted by an administrator on June 8, 2009 on the GameAxis forums and Evony has submitted for a review from Google to be cleared.
