The Central Bank of Russia has warned citizens about the risks of clicking games like Hamster Combat. reports Telegram channel Mash.
As the source writes, in these applications only developers receive real money. Internal currency and additional bonuses are used to attract users, but they have no real value.
The most dangerous thing is that during the peak of popularity of games, scammers appeared who promised to convert virtual currency into rubles. Many people have already suffered financial losses, trusting these promises.
“So right now the ‘hamster’ can only kill time. It is not known whether there will be any payment. Therefore it is better not to touch, but to do real things,” wrote Mash.
Hamster Kombat is a viral clicker game featured on Telegram, and its developers promise that after the listing, players will be able to convert accumulated points into cryptocurrency.
