    Default Scammers nowadays...

    I was taking a break from leveling my 65 in fort blackstone. Suddenly a pm popped up saying : ' hey wanna trade account with mine? lvl 62 - 36 - 52. 83plat - 45plat - 2400plat. " Lol almost immediately i know this is a scam. When you buy plat they show the same amount that you've bought for each character doesn't it. That scammer-wannabe's name is Ziiiiz. And guess what, when i asked him not to try to scam, he replied : ' shut up idiot ' Then he logged off.

    :/

    Cockroaches! What's with people?

    I am noticing more and more scammers lately. I report every one that solicits me, but seriously, what is to be gained? Some extra gold coins, or good gear - weighed against the ban hammer.

    Sign of the times I suppose...

    STS should get more serious with scams and start terminating accounts aggressively.

    Report them.

    Don't forget all you need is their name. You can use /report in game or email support w/ the name, date, time and incident.

    You do not need these people to get logged in to report them.

    There was a person selling Alien Oasis 3 greens for 300 gold and "rarer" ones for 900 in Forest Haven. I just spoke up and said "Why are you selling lvl 50 items in Forest Haven?" People try little by little to trick others.
    Another person tried selling jewel swords to me saying they were very valuable. I said nty I'll think about it and left, but he sent me a PM saying do it quick as it sells for 25k -_-'
    Fail

    If you don't report, they'll just scam others. Thank you.
