Protect yourself with Free Nobs.

  1. Fyber Gmbh is the company that provides the free nobility at the Oracle. There are legitimate offers there though there are a lot of false offers as well. Through my research, it seems like Fyber does very little to regulate and after viewing sites like BBB and even here in forums it also proves that they will let hell freeze over before giving game rewards that were not given. Furthermore, the amount of looping that many of the survey ads do are not a good sign.

    The Do Not's



    • Do NOT give out your credit card number to any of these surveys.
    With the amount of unregulated content, many of these very well can be scams that can very well could lead to your identity being stolen along with you money.

    • Do NOT give out your Real Life Address, full name, telephone number, social security/tax id number.

    • Do NOT give out any information apart from your first and your email. (Do not use your main email because it will get slammed with junk mail.)
    Anymore information than that can lead to scams or worse. Don't assume that it is safe because it is something you reached from a portal on Kaw. Anyone can make these ads and though some are legitimate, many are not. If you really want those nobs and want to hand over your card information and risk your money, at least research the company you are handing your card number to AND make sure it is their web portal and not a false site.

    • Do NOT open any attached files from any emails that you get from these surveys.
    Attached files are the easiest way to catch a virus on your PC, Tablet, and Smartphone. Risking your device for a few nobs is simply not worth it in the long run and there are other ads and surveys you can go to that will give you those free nobs without throwing up the red flags and opening you up for fraud and viruses.


    To conclude this:
    ATA has opened you up to a risk and you have to be smart about it. Fyber Bmbh is a legitimate company but their offers have reports of viruses being spread through them. I have not found any reports of credit scams but they would not surprise me with the amount of false rewards that are posted on the site.

    Happy Kaw.
     
  2. Noice. How did you know that?
     
  3. Never use your actual email or your real name.

    Use a fake name like Rodriquez Peninsky and a 10minmail or if you must, an inactive email that can be used for spammy emails.
     
  4. Write Donald Trump.


















    Problem solved.
     
  5. Darn it i gave my credit card number to em the other day. Twice.
     
  6. Giving out your real lastname and firstname isn't a good idea. Your firstname is fine, just don't give out your last.

    Some of these offers also data mine you then sell your information to advertisement services that will target you with all kinds of garbage, so also watch out when you give away your email and RL address.

    I thought this game was 9+ btw? This isn't even something that should be an issue.
     
  7. I would post links to the sources but I've been forum banned a few times. BBB gives Fyber a B rating as an Unacredited company but the reviews are not good at all. (Unacredited companies get less reviews in general but Fyber has no obligation to join them sence they are a German company)

    Just search for it. I used Bing and Google for my information gathering on this topic. Reddit and BBB have choice words for the style of surveys and for the company itself.

    I do have to warn you, with this companies name, you have to dig. Fyber is a very common name for things and many time you will see fiber in the search results so you want to search the full name Fyber Gmbh

    My search text:
    • Fyber Gmbh virus
    • Fyber Gmbh virus risk
    • Fyber Gmbh scam
    • Fyber Gmbh


    What I saw was that yes, it does have legitament offers and surveys but it also had scams and risks and the support team sucks and they do not give you back any lost points/gems/nobility. They do have a virus blocker when it comes to opening and clicking the survey but not when it comes to any emails traded between the user and the advertiser. It is also a haven for popups.
     
  8. Good point. I removed the last name part.
    Never give out your RL address either.
     
  9. I do that personally but with my record with the devs, i don't want to risk telling people to lie on the surveys. It's a good way for me to say bye to forums forever.

    Keep a very close eye on your transactions.
     
  10. If you want real names just use the ones posted on the kaw facebook page.
     
  11. ^Well I used to suggest it all the time.

    Still waiting for it, I guess.

    Also why is everyone suddenly so interested in free nobs again?

    edit:LMAO @CHINESE
     
  12. I insulted and called Grant out in forums, WC, and on his wall for "reasons." I was blocked and forum banned. Also, being apart of New Age's strip on the mods a couple of years back landed me on the short end of the stick. I've been banned for a lot less than than informing people that the Devs new cash cow could have virus issues and scam threats and I don't want to risk telling them to lie. I'm not exactly a nice person towards the powers that be.

    Though this thread is not against them, it is just to protect players who assume that these surveys are safe because they can access them from kaw.
     
  13. "new cash cow"
    this system has been here for a while

    It was so much easier before, when all you had to do to get free nobs was download an app and/or reach lvl.6-7 stronghold/hq.

    Ez nobs.
     

  14. I haven't looked at the oracle sense season 5 and only did it recently to actually use one of my free xstals. lol. I haven't been really active sense they released the abysmal lands so it's new to me.

    That or I have just never noticed it on iphone until I saw the complaining about it on forums.
     
  15. Is this based off mine?
     
  16. You made me interested enought to research and try the site so to form a personal opinion on the surveys. Which ended with me making this post.
     
  17. YAY! #SUPPORT #WeWantVideos
     
  18. Can i quote you on my thread?
     
  19. There is a Facebook sweepstakes for 49 nobs.

    Facebook has been very public about them not engaging in personal sweepstakes. - Scam Ad looking to gain information.


    My god half of the crap there is blatantly crap. Know what, I'm done with this game, I'm just, over it.

    The dev's thrust for squeezing money out of Kaw have killed mass pvp OSW's and now they allow a garbage site like Fyber risk their players personal information and devices. I can't even enjoy a season of war ee, once a year, without this game infuriating me with their crap.

    I get the fact that it's a business and they want money. I agree. But after degrading the game play I had enough, I just played because I was invested and because I like EE and love my clan mates in New Age.

    But if they are going to risk their players, many of them are very young, with this crap survey/ad agency then they have lost absolute all of my respect.
     
  20. I never knew that about facebook. I tried it atleast 10 times lol
