Runechat.com is an unlicensed gambling casino that takes deposits in RuneScape gold, PayPal, and crypto — a category with no player protections and one that violates Jagex's terms, putting your game account at risk too. Independent scanners flag it hard: Gridinsoft labels it phishing with a 3/100 trust score, ScamAdviser rates it 'very low trust', and BBB Scam Tracker has reports of users lured with free currency then unable to get money out. User reviews describe deposits that never credit and support tickets that go nowhere.
The red flag our scan surfaced on runechat.com
Deposits vanish and withdrawals stall, per multiple user reports
highTrustpilot reviewers report deposits that never appeared in their balance and a broken ticket system, while a BBB Scam Tracker report describes the site baiting users with free 'RuneScape GP' before taking their money. Gridinsoft separately flags the site as phishing, warning users not to deposit or reuse Jagex passwords.

What should you do right now?
- Don't enter card details or personal information. If you already paid, contact your card issuer now, dispute the charge, and watch the card for follow-on charges — don't wait out a tracking number that never moves.
- Report it: the ad where you found it (Facebook/Instagram ads have a report option) and the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
- Before trusting any counterclaim — 'we shipped it,' 'pay a release fee' — get a current researched verdict on the exact URL. Sites like this change hands and templates fast.
