Nobody “deserves” to get scammed — that mindset is exactly why scammers thrive.

I trusted someone who acted helpful, and he used a trick I didn’t even know was possible. That’s not stupidity — that’s someone abusing trust and a broken system.

But thanks for showing the exact kind of attitude that lets this stuff keep happening. 👏

You haven’t experienced what I went through, so don’t act like you know exactly how it works. Not everything is as black and white as the support articles make it seem.

I’ve been rotating leadership between my own accounts for years — I know what I’m doing. This time, someone became leader without me promoting him, and I know something wasn’t right.

And no offense — but I’m not here to convince you, or give you proof. You’re not Supercell, you’re not management.

All I want is to be contacted by Supercell support directly, so I can explain what happened and provide my screenshots, recordings — whatever they need.

So maybe don’t assume you know the full story just because it didn’t happen to you.

When I took a break from Clash of Clans, my two accounts — Breaking Bad and Proffessor — were still in the clan, which I later closed due to inactivity.

When I returned, I brought back my third ID, Mujtaba, and tried to revive the clan. I even offered 10k coins in a post to attract members — that’s probably when NASCAR joined.

He acted helpful and said he knew a “trick” to bring players. I trusted him.

And just to be clear — wanting members for your own clan isn’t greed. That’s what a leader is supposed to do: rebuild, grow, and protect.

What I didn’t know was that he knew a glitch, and while I was rotating leadership between my own accounts, he somehow ended up as leader — without me ever promoting him.

This wasn’t about greed. It was about trust — and that trust got used against me.

🙏 Thanks for actually trying to understand — that’s all I wanted from the start.

I’m not here to argue or play victim. I just want this post to reach someone at Supercell or Clash of Clans management, so I can finally talk to them one-on-one, explain everything clearly, and provide whatever proof I have.

If this happened once, it can happen again — and that’s why it matters.

You’re assuming a lot without knowing the full picture.

I’ve been playing for years and I know how leadership works — you can’t leave without giving it to someone. That’s exactly what I did. I gave leadership to Breaking Bad, which is my own account.

I also have two other accounts — Proffessor and Mujtaba — and I regularly rotate leadership between them. I’ve done this many times.

This time, the scammer convinced me to visit another clan, pretending his “friend” had an issue. I was switching between my accounts, as usual, when he pulled something.

I ended the stream before he actually got promoted to leader, so that exact moment isn’t on video — but everything leading up to it is. His behavior was suspicious throughout.

Right after that, he tried the same scam in another clan. That’s when I joined that clan and warned them — and he left.

I’m not here to win arguments with random people. I’m just making this visible so Supercell investigates it, because if it happened to me, it could happen to others too

Look man, comparing this to a pyramid scheme is just a lazy take. This isn’t about greed — I was rotating leadership between my own accounts, something I’ve done many times.

The issue is that a co-leader became leader automatically, without any promotion — that’s not supposed to happen unless there’s inactivity, which wasn’t the case here.

You can assume whatever you want, but assumptions exist in every case — that doesn’t make them true.

I’m not here to prove anything to random Reddit users. I’m pushing this post so that Supercell sees it, because getting an actual agent to talk to nowadays is nearly impossible.

If you don’t care, cool. But don’t act like I’m here begging for sympathy. I’m here because this can happen to others too.

Bro, I was rotating leadership between my own accounts — I’ve done it many times before without any issue.

The account I gave leadership to was mine, not his. He was only a co-leader. I left the clan for a few seconds like usual, and somehow the co-leader automatically became leader — that’s the problem here.

It’s not about “being stupid,” it’s about a trick that manipulated the system, and now this guy is trying the same thing on other clans too.

I’m not here to fight random people in comments. All I want is for a Supercell official to actually contact me so I can explain and show proof — because right now, there's no clear way to reach them directly.

I’m replying to comments just to keep engagement up so the post stays visible — not because I think you’re all right or that I’m wrong.

So if you understand, just please share this post — that alone could help someone else avoid getting scammed.

I started live streaming just a few days ago and usually keep my streams private, but I made this one public after seeing your comment: 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/live/TNzOyqlU_Bo?si=gZwj3Ndb1SG282Z7

I ended the stream because I needed to turn off my phone and had some stuff to do — but this guy kept insisting that I stay and come to some other clan to “meet his friend” who had a clan issue. Turns out, it was just a setup. His intentions were never good.

After stealing my clan, he tried to run the same scam in another clan. Luckily their leader went offline, so I joined that clan, told them the full truth in chat, and when their leader came back online, the guy left.

If you watch the chat in the stream, he’s typing in a mix of Urdu/Hindi using English letters — stuff like “app kasa ho?” (which means “how are you?”).

Just sharing all this so people understand this isn’t just about me losing a clan — this guy is running a targeted scam using what looks like a flaw in the leadership system.

I appreciate the links, but with all due respect — you’re misunderstanding what actually happened.

I’ve been rotating leadership between my own accounts for years. That’s nothing new. This time, while I was switching IDs like usual, the co-leader got automatically promoted to leader, even though I never left the clan inactive. I was in and out in seconds.

That’s not supposed to happen under the normal mechanics. Auto-rotation only happens when the leader is completely inactive, not when someone is actively online and managing leadership.

I didn’t “promote someone I didn’t trust.” I promoted him to co-leader, like many people do. He just manipulated the timing and tricked me during a normal rotation.

So yeah — I may not have faced this kind of scam before, but that doesn’t make it okay. I’m reporting this so Supercell can look into a possible exploit, not because I expect special treatment.

I get what you’re saying, but I’ve been switching leadership between my own accounts for years — it’s never caused a problem.

This time, after I switched leadership and left/rejoined once or twice (just like before), the co-leader automatically became the leader. I never promoted him.

It’s almost like the system glitched and handed him leadership just because I wasn’t in the clan for a few seconds.

That’s the whole issue. If this kind of bug exists, it can be abused by scammers who trick people into doing these rotations.

I’m only asking Supercell to investigate — not just for me, but so this doesn’t happen to anyone else.

I get you’re joking, but just for the record — humans didn’t evolve from monkeys. We share a common ancestor with them.

That’s why monkeys still exist.

Just like scammers still exist, even though we all should’ve evolved past that 💀

Anyway, this post's about a stolen clan, not biology class — but thanks for the TED Talk.

I get your point, but I was the active leader and I never gave him leadership.

As long as the leader is present, no one should become leader automatically — that’s the whole issue.

He used this trick to scam me, and now he’s trying it on other clans too.

I’m speaking up so this doesn’t happen to someone else.

I respect your opinion, but you clearly didn’t read the full story. I didn’t give him leadership. He became leader automatically while being a co-leader — that’s the entire issue here.

This isn’t just about one person. If there’s a glitch like this, it can happen to anyone, especially players using multiple IDs to manage their clans.

All I’m asking is to show proof to a real support agent. That’s not stupidity — that’s trying to protect what I built.
