The EliteDangerous $100.000 CQC Tournament Fraud - All You Need To Know To Report It To UK Authorities Hello Reddit, I'm sure most of you heard about the Elite Dangerous $100.000 CQC Tournament that Frontier Developments announced November last year on their website @ https://www.elitedangerous.com/en/arena/ and on their official forums @ https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/199427-The-100-000-CQC-tournament-%E2%80%93-Everything-you-need-to-know when launching the Xbox One Elite Dangerous client and CQC Arena game.
