Skillz is an online mobile multiplayer video game competition platform integrated into many iOS and Android games in March 2012. Players use it to compete in competitions against other players across the world. However, they are infamously known for scamming their users out of their own money.

Why They Don't Have Any Skillz and Never Will

IMPORTANT NOTE: This company has gained extreme infamy for scamming and other reasons listed below. Since the activities of this company are potentially illegal, no positive pointers/section will be permitted on this page.

  1. Firstly, their games are only gambling casinos based on simple concepts such as Bingo, Dominoes, Solitaire, and more.
  2. A fair amount of their games straight-up copy other games such as.
    • Yatzy Cash is a rip-off of Scopely's Dice with Buddies. In fact, the icon is even exactly copied from it.
    • Hill Racing-Offroad Driving is a rip-off of Hill Climb Racing.
  3. Quantity Over Quality: Since March 2012, they have made over 483 games, all of which are nothing but of low quality.[1]
  4. They are infamous for scamming their users out of their money. For example, once you win enough money, they will ban your account for "cheating" and steal all your money. How has this company not been disbanded, let alone arrested for fraud yet?!
    • In fact, they were sued multiple times by people who were screwed out of money because of them. [2]
  5. Poor Security: Their games will charge money from the user's credit card, even if the user didn't even play any of their games.
  6. Their games also have a ticket system that shows amazing prizes such as expensive items and cars. But just like the money, you will not get it and the moderators will ban your account.
  7. Their advertisements are terrible such as these:
    • A fair amount of their ads use outdated pictures from 2016-2017 to advertise their newly made apps.
    • Many of them use Cameo to feature celebrities such as Snoop Dogg in their ads. The dumbest thing is they left the Cameo watermark on the video, proving they paid them to do a fake review.[3]
    • Many of them claim to give users lots of money, but they don't since the moderators will ban you if you do.
  8. Their games are just like free money scam apps, but only this time, they require you to deposit money into their apps just so they can take it away from you once you earn enough of it.
  9. Poor Customer Service: The moderators will blame you for their games being glitchy and also falsely accuse you of cheating on their app as soon you try to redeem your money.[4]
    • If you report a cheater that won a bunch of money off of you, they will keep the cheater in the game, give them a warning, and ban your account instead.
  10. Just like G2A, if you're inactive for at least six months straight, an inactivity fee of $2 will be deducted from your bonus cash or credit card for every month that you're not active in.[5]
  11. Their games suffer from bugs and glitches in which the game will tend to crash while you are in. If that happens, your game will be counted as a forfeit, and you will lose your money and not get it back.
    • Not only that, but they will also even ban players because of their games not functioning correctly rather than fixing it, proving that they don't listen to criticism.
  12. Their games are so bad, that they were taken off by the Google Play store for good likely due to their false advertisements on Google Play.
