Welcome to Game Verifying.

Wondering if your games are fake or not? Want to read about methods how to verify games? Then this is the place for you. We started in November 2019, dedicated to helping fellow gamers determine whether or not their games, or ones they wanted to buy, were fake or not. After finding misleading information throughout the internet regarding the verification of games, 4 people banded together to help everyone have a clear understanding on the hallmarks of legitimate and counterfeit games.
Now, we have more than 20 trained and trusted verifiers around the globe, a Reddit community consisting over 40,000 members, and an active Discord server with over 1,500 members; all steadily climbing.

Bought a game from eBay or Mercari that turned out to be fake? Want your money back?

As of March 2024, Mercari and eBay are requiring a "written determination" of inauthenticity if a game is found to be fake in order for you to receive a full refund. We now provide a formal authentication service, guaranteed within 72 hours. You will receive a report of authentication using our 25 point checks, signed and dated with our information. The proceeds from our Proof of Authentication service goes towards funding our endeavours to provide a service for everyone to use.
