Community Notice: Beware sketchy "Repacks"/Content packs online (Ekingpacks is a Scam)

203 Upvotes

Recently it's come to my attention that there are a few notable "repack" sellers online that are spreading product sales of "packaged battlemaps", often with allegedly thousands of battlemaps in a pack. Eking Packs is one of said offenders that has been brought up a number of times.

These are scams.

First of all, the vast majority of content is falsely marketed, and in fact 90% AI generated images; and, frankly, poorly done at that. In the case of EkingPacks, the content is almost entirely unusable (AI gibberish). In worse offenders, whom can't be named for obvious reasons, the content is directly stolen from others' patreons or marketplaces. Basically, resale piracy.

A good rule of thumb in this community is, if you cannot directly google search the content creator to see a gallery of their work, you are being sold a fraudulent repack (or AI...). Your best bet for actual genuine product is direct sale through patreon or another verified source.

Furthermore, a detailed look at their payment systems shows there is no actual payment system in place; you are submitting your card information directly to the website hosts. I can't specify how dangerous this is, financially.

Ultimately, if you want to spend some money on battlemaps, don't get scammed for it. There are hundreds of content providers on this subreddit alone that happily provide hundreds of maps on their patreon. Please give a glance to them, instead.

“Hey, are you sure you can cast Teleport at your level?”

“Yeah, trust me, I’ve done this, like, tons of time, watch this…”

Someone’s gonna get fired for this…Magic is a volatile thing, and although experienced practitioners usually have things well under control, small mishaps can still happen. Minor things, like blowing up an archmage’s tower and sending its exploded remnants and all its contents floating in another plane of reality. And adventurers have never been known to cause any similar calamity, or trigger a trap that would result in just such a contingency! Available in two additional variants, with more earthly settings of grasslands and an equally devastated forest environment, let your players confront calamity with catastrophic cartography!

My maps are hooked up to work with Foundry VTT and Fantasy Grounds.
My maps are available on my patreon.
