Total Trivia TotalTrivia Dishonest app - most likely has fake players or bots to grow the prices Minneapolis minnesota
The app makes money by people competing with eachother - to be competative you have to invest often $20-$30. You need 'cupons' to play.
and it costs $10 for every 10,000 cupons.
They invent prices for their priizes which are unrealistic, to pretend they are high end. So people end up competing quite a bit, not knowing the items they will get are worth 1/10 of what the app claims. (I had some items appraised). The reviews for the items are often shill and fake - In fact, fakespot.com found %40 unreliable reviews for the 'great' Kamikoto knifes that Total Trivia Raves about. and it found that amazon deleted over 100 reviews for them.
Non of the companies that have prizes on the app have a physical address. Whats more - I have found claims that all these companies are actually tied to one company.
Now the most rediculous thing: I have reasons to believe the app actually has fake players or bots meant to drive up the competition if an item did not get enough money thrown into it.
I have taken screen shots of two players that always seem to appear when a 'high end' product does not have much competition. They drive up the competition, and if the competition reaches a point where enough money was thrown in, the 'fake players' suddenly give up, even if they can easily catch up.
****ONe particularly interesting case was as such: I was playing for a $50 amazon gift card. I had already won enough "Discount cUpons" to try to compete for it.
I spent $35 worth of of those cupons and reached about 40,000 points. Then I noticed two players just shot up into 57000 points. It is inevitable that these people spent more than $70 worth of 'discount cupons' to try to win a $50 gift card. Even if they got every single answer correctly. you have to be completely lacking in logic to do that.... unless you're not even real.
And this is not the first time I have seen this.
**** Get your money back ASAP - call your bank and revoke authorization on all payments to Total Trivia. I got all my money back from these scammers. - they dont have any credible argument to fight against your revoking. ****
Due to the fact that I cant prove that the players in the screenshots I took are fake, I will not be uploading them. But I wonder if anyone else suspects this.
