[Ciwan]

Hi Guys

A friend of mine has had his account closed. When he asked " why " the said it was because he was downloading illegal material !!!!

Is something happening within RS that we don't know about ? Also what advice should I give my friend.

Thank you.

Any help guys ?

Best thing to do in such cases is to send them a mail saying your account might've been hacked as you would never use it for illegal purpose...show complete ignorance.

dude, have your friend asked for a payout?

never heard this before, anybody saying

[sniffdog]

Yes, I think this is what you might get if you ask for a payout ....

It also could be that the account is hacked and that this email has been sent by the hacker ....
