Fortnite Special Event V Bucks (Fortnite-Special.com) has been spotted going viral on YouTube and social media over the past day, with the site offering free Fortnite V Bucks. It’s been getting a lot of attention, and I imagine many players have tried using the site to get free Fortnite premium currency. Is it a scam? Here’s what we know!
Fortnite Special Event V Bucks: What Is Fortnite Special?
Fortnite Special is a website that claims to give players free Fortnite V Bucks. Users are asked to share the page with their friends to get free currency for the game.
The Fortnite Special website is pretty official-looking, using the same artwork and font as the game’s official site. This can make it seem legitimate to players hurrying to grab the last remaining codes.
Fortnite Special Event V Bucks: Is Fortnite Special a Scam?
If something appears too good to be true, it’s usually worth avoiding. Epic Games has confirmed that the Fortnite Special site is fake and a scam.
Epic Loomin posted the following in the Fortnite Discord:
The ‘Fortnite Special’ website is fake and will not give you v-bucks. This website is not an Epic Games website, there are no ways to get free v-bucks other than within Save the World and the battle pass within Battle Royale. Please do not be fooled by these websites! Stay safe.
Fortnite Special Event V Bucks: How to Get Free Fortnite V Bucks
As made clear by Epic Loomin, the only way to get free Fortnite V Bucks is within the game itself, by playing Save the World and Battle Royale.
If you come across another site claiming to offer free V Bucks, no matter how official it looks, proceed with caution. I’d recommend following the official Fortnite channels on social media to stay informed on potential Fortnite V Buck deals, and for warnings about active scam websites.
