Untrustworthy People/Scammers

[JaytB]

Thank you for this Jay!

I usually reply "If it expires, it's yours". They reply "But I don't have time to wait!". I say "Bad luck then" and conversation closed.

Haha, I usually tell them something similar. Sometimes I just completely ignore those PM's though, I start to get really good at acting afk

This is a very important thread for everyone to read

I like to take pride in that i was never scammed/fooled by these types of people

The few people i trust in this game proven to be 100% trust worthy =]

One way to see if you can trust someone is building up the things you let them help you transfer, start with crates, if they dont steal e'm move on to elite gold chests and so on...

Im not saying you should do this, but ive been very lucky to meet excellent people on this game and also i could tell who not to trust.

The main thing you have to remember is really hard to explain, from one side trust no one, but on the other side trust the people you REALLY know.. follow your gut in a way.

Many people were scammed cause they relied on someone due to him being officer in their guild/him having full myth gear so why would he try to scam mine?, dont fall for that folks.

EDIT: Ok. My apologies. It seems I stand corrected

I got scammed once, thought ill never again give anything or even have anything.
Im proud to say now im now in circle of people who i can fully trust, n who trust me. Finding that in this game is very hard and im blessed!
The midas, i think like 30 of us got from same person(actually persons, few people together) n all gold was returned! No scamms!

I truly am blesseed

They are implementing spaces between sets of digits.. It may not be commas or periods, but it's a start

it confuses me why not a comma rather than a space ... go figure

This is a terrible idea!! Most arcane scams are done this way. Building trust. Scammer is eager to loan you gold or items of moderate value, build a trusting relationship. Then when finally he is handed something b I g enough like a maul or 50m or whatever the case....BAM!! Game over! and you rage quit.

someone succesfully scammed 87m from officers of a certain guild for a Midas Touch Achievement just recently. I hope the devs take action on this coz it will not end. Scammers think they are tolerated, and more people will just resolve to scamming than earn it the hard way. IP Ban a scammer and make it known as an example so that people will not follow.

Say no to gold achievements. Does it give you any benefit? No!

It's all risk and no reward for you. Why would you do it?

I partly agree. The people scamming should be banned. But to be frank, I think the people giving the money away are at as much fault as the scammer. Not saying they should get banned, but I don't pitty them.

You can't use IP address, it is so easily spoofed/changed.

Best approach is a Device ID ban, but even that can be changed if someone knows what they are doing and has ROOT access on their device.

[KingMartin]

Yes, he did

Some even removed me from friends list, because he smuggled his toon into guild where I am an officer

[Cremated]

I didn't use you. I would never do anything to hurt you guys, That's why I never did anything bad to you You help me achieve alot.

They wanted to help a friend, a guildie. Whats bad on that? The scammer just use the goodness of this ppl and thats really sad...

[Venom]

DO NOT help with gold achievements unless you are ready to let go of that much gold Way too many scammers nowadays. Once you trade that money, its gone. STS wont and can not just get it back, would affect the ones who aren't even involved.

For example, x scams from y, then x spends that money on items which he buys from z (z doesn't know anything about the scam). Now, z has the money which was scammed. Would it be fair to z if STS takes away his money and give back to y? Would it be fair if it happened to you?? Just make sure you give your valuables to real close and good people. Learn to say NO when someone asks to borrow your Arcane or Mythic weapons. Learn to say NO when someone wants gold AP. See the next person's reputation, past trade history, etc. before trusting him with something that matters to you.

Well, other than the whole point of the achievement, I don't think it's "wrong" per se to lend gold. And I don't think they should be banned. But people should understand that when you hand money away its a one way trade. If they give it back, they are just nice people

When I "loan" money to friends, you can ask (actually, you can't, because nobody I've loaned money to plays anymore lol), I never ask for it back. If they give it back, I'll take it.

[Deadroth]

Yeah.. Great article Jonnnyy

I have three pepole who i trust in this game..

And i am sure, they would never take my items.

But.. As Jon said, Better to be carefull even with those, who we know.

______________

Next thing is gold scammin.. Someone said about 87 m scam.. That hurt alot i belive..

But no worries.. Sts won't do anything against it... not whole sts.. but suppourt. The guys, who should be our rescue..

I submitted scam for 5 m.. AND i proved it.. (My Bestfriends Emma, and Jon helped me with that case THXXX)

But sts said 'we can't regive You gold, but we will take any nessesary reactions against scammers'

Month passed after case.. Scammer is still on my friendlist... And he seems to be good..

GJ suppourt.

Hmmm...

The moral is.. (Take this as trenchant joke ofc) Better to be scammer in this game.. Earn millions in while, from pepole who worked year for it.

_______________

I don't know about You all, but i feel unsafely now..

Good there are discussions like that, which have point to minimalize numbers of scams as much as possible.

_____________

I have one sentence now,

You can count only on Yourself and, if You have, on Bestfriends.

Other things are silence.

I was just reacting on that "no pity" for them. most of the achievements r designed to get with friends, group of ppl, u cant just run elite maps alone or?
