  Serious, it sucks that this goes on.  But it's been a problem for quite a while and WGT hasn't done anything to fix the problem.  You aren't the first (or probably the 1000th) to mention it in the forum.  

  Some of the response is due to the question being asked and answered many times before.  While a bit sarcastic, the comments were meant in good humor.  Also truthful, as coins really are worthless, except for over priced rental equipment.

  You can try and contact Customer Service, but other have reported that doesn't work either.  It really does come down to buyer beware.

  Lastly I admire for admitting you were whining a bit in your original post.  Best thing is to join an active CC and make friends there.  Then play only friends, or accept that far too many gamers playing the mobile game will do this to scam you.

  Enjoy the game and hit 'em where you're aiming.

  It's not. I'm Slovenian, despite my UK flag.

   

  @ OP

  First you are whinning about some useless coins . Coins that serve no purpose and have absolutely no value what so ever . WGT is not going to refund them and probably wont fix that bug either .Sorry that you got suckered and ripped off but that`s just the way it is .Since this has happened to you multiple times , one would think you`d know better by now . So its no ones fault but your own .

  David: While I use the mobile app to get credits, I do not play the game there. I have over 257,000 useless coins and would gladly transfer them to you. Having them go to a good home is better than collecting them on a daily basis from that dumb keno wheel.

  Thanks for the offer Hack....but again...it's not the coins.It's the principal of playing a fun game and building up a worthless large amount of wins and having them stripped by a cheat that zooms in and wipes you out. I really don't get the guys who criticize anyone who would get mad at this ...but...to each his own. Any online game allows you to build up mega fake wealth. Even if you were playing a  Monopoly boardgame with fake money and a guy spends days playing and has a bankroll and loves the fake gamble and someone comes off the street, walks up to the table and takes all the fake money....I would expect the player may get a tad frustrated. In fact in some places the stranger could be in danger of bodily injury. It's just not cool. My .02c ... or 1,890,605 coins. :-) whichever is less...
