    Default How I was scammed :( Don't let this happen to you!

    It happened last sunday .
    Iv informed Admins and Supports after the incident.

    There modus is to claim they can Duplicate your iTems esp Expensive items Mythics, Arcane , Eggs.

    They will offer to duplicate ur items they called it through
    Shazbot Trading Bugged .

    First theyre going to test your trust and as a colleague from
    Phil. l was too stupid to believed them.

    One char will teach you some invalid promocodes stuff and later on
    advices you to change your camera settings to zoom out, unable
    all the check box in social options. Then advices you to go windmore
    area near shazbot and as a result only shazbot name will appear on the screen.
    Advices you again to enter some fake promocodes in order shazbot
    will trade you but it appears this new char Shozbot is the one will trade you.

    First there going to test you by giving 2 coppers chest then ' Shozbot ' trades
    you with 4 coppers chest for you to believed the duped was a successful.
    Again advices you some invalid promocodes in order shozbot will trade
    you and this time puting your expensive items on the line.

    Saying mythic arcane or expnsive eggs can only be duped once.
    So since the coppers chest is succesful u gain there trust.
    Now the scammed happens. After receiving, shozbot disappears and telling
    the trade was bugged.
    For those who encounters such situations pls be aware.

    Id say be happy now cuz the scammers will be banned... but my hard won items are gone

    If someone claims they can double your money, don't believe them (and don't give them your money).

    If someone claims they can duplicate your items, don't believe them (and don't give them your items).

    If you see this in game, use the report function to notify Spacetime Studios Support so we can take action on those who try to scam. Then put them on ignore/mute so you don't have to listen to their lies anymore. Then get back to playing the game.

    No need for me to read past this point ======> "They will offer to duplicate ur items they called it through".
    First off if you think someone is going to help you out in anyway for no gain to them, in a video game, you're sadly mistake.
    Also, even if they were going to honestly do that for you, you were trying to commit something that is againt the rules in ANY GAME YOU WILL EVER PLAY.

    Sorry but i think that the people who try to do such, moronic (My opinion), things deserve what ever bad things come to them.

    That took me awhile....

    Actually, I disagree. The fact is, in trying to cheat, he was cheated. A little ruffling may help to ensure that in the future it doesn't happen again.

    A wise person once said... "If its seems too good to be true, it probably is"
