Today, more and more games are produced by small costs, and the crowdfunding website Kickstarter has naturally become a magic weapon for small game manufacturers to raise funds.However, there are inevitably frauds in rich places. Not long ago, the Federal Trade Commission officially investigated a crowdfunding case of a Kickstarter game crowdfunding and asked crowdfunding to refund the refund as soon as possible.

The scammer was named Erik Chevalier.In May 2012, he launched a board game fundraising plan called "The Doom That Came to Atlantic City" on Kickstarter, with a goal of $ 35,000.But what made this scammer Erik did not expect that players would buy this way, and the final fund raising of the game actually reached an amazing $ 120,000.

However, such funding support did not move Erik Chevalier to cry.On the contrary, he announced the cancellation of the game on Kickstarter for 14 months of fundraising, and used "lack of experience" as the main reason for canceling the plan.It is said that the game cancels that Erik should refund the player, but the dear brother has been dragging since the second half of 2013, and has not yet completed a refund.According to government surveys, Mr. Chevalier has used a lot of money in "personal affairs", such as paying rent, various travel costs, and related costs of another game plan.It seems that Mr. Chevalier, a liar, has been shrinking for a while.
