TOP STORY : FAKE OR REAL? by TDM

When A morris, Random Ranaun and a few more got a message about a expansion pack for The Sims 3, something wasn't right. All of us have done quite a few investigations, but are the main ones:

1. The IP was 124.182.215.231
2. It came from South Australia
3. There is no The Sims 3 VIP member (like Decorgal) in Australia
4. Why would they tell us instead of a fansite or MTS?
5. He/she is an impostor so best ignore it.

Though nobody, not even me can justify No.5 though. But just ignore it.
