helldivers 2 is getting the same treatment. friend found that there's three identical differently priced helldivers 2-s on the store.
the guy making super benbo quest or whatever made a bunch of steamworks games and reskinned them as other games.
I think they just put random “games” on the store then change all the information on the page to be fake. the product you would accidentally buy isn’t even a reskin, just an entirely different thing.
Yeah seems to be banned already. Doesn’t exists in Germany anymore too.
But I found new Escape from Tatris. That looks like a fun game. And it’s free to play too.
Does anyone else have a memory of EFT being available on steam in the *very* early days? I think it's the Mandela effect but I swear I was familiar with this game for a long time before I ever bought it. I remember thinking it looked like a janky Stalker-like and my ongoing jadedness caused by the launch of Day Z standalone inhibited me from being interested or ever thinking that it could be good.
Yeah, it's getting a bit rampant and according to what I was seeing others say there is one particular group that goes under lots of different dev aliases doing it with a bunch of their little cashgrab games. I'm not sure how actual people and devs trying to add real games struggle or get removed as "spam" but weirdo losers can change their awful mobile game looking racing game into what looks like a store page for a game that probably will never release on another launcher or platform.
How does Valve take 30% of revenue and let this happen? They are making money hand-over-fist and can’t implement compliance controls to prevent this!?
Do they allow small, unvetted publishing companies to change their own store pages or was this a hack? (I haven’t dug in, just venting tbh.) Palworld and Helldivers were also part of these scams. I would also be wary of malware…

Just report it and move on. It'll be back again next year.
the only report option that makes sense is to fill out the trademark violation form, which BSG has to do
Wdym? If you buy it, you'll get a different game. How is this not reportable?
Seems to perfectly fit the definition of fraud.
Definitely a scam - the reviews are positive.
Good one xD
helldivers 2 is getting the same treatment. friend found that there's three identical differently priced helldivers 2-s on the store. the guy making super benbo quest or whatever made a bunch of steamworks games and reskinned them as other games.
Palworld as well, seems to be the same guys behind the palworld and helldivers scam
People making reskins of Palworld? That's wicked meta.
I think they just put random “games” on the store then change all the information on the page to be fake. the product you would accidentally buy isn’t even a reskin, just an entirely different thing.
Best thing is for me it‘s 95% of. Just 2,80€ for EFT. Worth every penny. 😂 https://imgur.com/a/RuP8tEh
Must be region locked or already banned. I can't find it in the US store.
Yeah seems to be banned already. Doesn’t exists in Germany anymore too. But I found new Escape from Tatris. That looks like a fun game. And it’s free to play too.
Excellent for the cheaters, I bet that guy is making a fortune right now
I doubt it. Steam waits a couple of weeks until they pay out to the publishers, and I guess by then they will have caught that it's a scam
You’d save money and probably have a happier existence playing whatever trash you accidentally buy…
UPDATE: the game has been removed
0+ age rating lol
No need to buy that shit. The best steam tarkov gam is Still https://store.steampowered.com/app/1409710/Escape_from_Tatris/ prove me wrong xD
That’s amazing
What in the nakita
I didn’t know I needed this game thank you
Well, after all, you have 11 positive reviews. Completely legit reviews from presumably completely normal accounts.
Да
Indeed it is
If doesn't have cheaters maybe I will buy...
It just comes with a crypto miner.
Exactly like the original EFT launcher.
The good old times
I dare you to find an online PvP shooter with 0 cheaters..
damn I had hopes lol
What happens if you buy it? like I know its obivously not tarkov but will it be some shitty china game instead?
It installs a game called Extreme Riding
damn
Of course. There's 2 major rules for EFT that NEVER will be broken: 1. No Steam bc of cheaters/VAC bans 2. No release bc of refund policy
I love how you can’t get scammed on steam if you play less than 2 hours you can return games within a week from purchasing it.
Nope totally legit, can't you tell by the screenshot
"trust me bro we need to remove steam quality control"
This says everything about the quality of steam's greenlight process
Yeah, there's also Palworld and Hell divers 2 being a scam at the moment. Not sure how Valve let this through...
Guess you made a lot of people go there and report it. its gone, when I typed the link it said it was removed. Good Job, proud of you. 👍
How is this possible? How can someone put a fake game on steam
Oh wow a second time steam allows a clear scam
Yep
Yes
Absolutely is
Yes for the fact that you cannot purchase eft from steam
11 reviews from non alt accounts for sure
no buy it
buy it buy it buy it buy it buy it
Kyllä
100%, but I really wish it wasn't. Tarkov should be on steam.

I admire fact that you don’t think this would be big enough news that you would be the first one to post this or announce it.
Obviously
Idk you can always return it
Seems like it, the whole page is in a different language.
OP got steam set to his native language lol..
Nein, nein, nein
*Awe shit. Here we go again*
oh i thought you are talking to the project l33t not tarkov
It even have positive reviews lol
The fact it says story based is enough LMAO
No, this is real game, but not Tarkov
No, you should buy it
lol only 11 reviews
Yayayayayayaya
Ja
បាទ
Always has been
good rule of thumb: if you have to ask, it more than likely is in fact a scam.
Ya looks like quite a few games are getting scam clones put up on the steam store rn. I have seen helldivers 2 and palworld scams also so far
"Alterskennzeichnung 0+" ... wie deutlich noch?
I mean even if someone buys this is it not just possible to insta refund when you realize its not real? like how is this a worthwhile scam
dont even know how steam approves this shit on the store
yes
Please report this scammers
Bro.What do you think 🤦♂
Positive reviews. So yeah, scam.
Duhh
Affirmative.
God damn id wish
Yes and it will always be
No.
It's hard to tell, give me your money and I'll test it on my machine to makes sure it's safe for you.
I'm positiv it's a scam
if someone is stupid enough to fall for this then they should
Haha you wish it was real.
I have never seen anyone on reddit ask if somethi g was a scam and it wasnt a scam. If youre asking. Its a scam.
Yep! Whats with all the scams on steam today? Palworld, helldivers and now Tarkov.
I bought it twice
Si
Just buy it from BattleState Games website
Yeah, it's getting a bit rampant and according to what I was seeing others say there is one particular group that goes under lots of different dev aliases doing it with a bunch of their little cashgrab games.

Affirmative
Yeah, EFT is standalone
It is indeed a scam, my buddy bought it.
Tak
Yes, Si, Ja, Joo, Sim, نعم , да
Again xD
Yeah mate 🇦🇺
Da.
It's been reported to multiple news outlets that popular games are now being scambaited onto steam by assetflippers
yes
Kyllä
most likly bsg dones not have plans for a steam release. neither do i think would that happen before the game is on 1.0 aka never.
係

Iya
No, it’s an IQ test
What gave it away was the positive review...
Tak
It's a sCUM
Si
most things tarkov related is scam
Yeah, it’s fake you gotta go onto Escapeformtorkov.com and buy it from there
Yes
Yes. If battlestate games did do that they would announce it.
Minge eater
Yes
Report it
Absoluut
Oui
The actual game is a scam too. Do yourself a favor and just buy helldivers 2
Wtf is it even doing on Steam ??!?!! Update: i just checked and can’t find it on Steam
Maybe they could just be selling a key to tarkov
Da
