Hey everyone,
As title stated, new scam alerts. People are always trying new ways to scam others in game. What we can do, is to be extra careful.
This is what I encountered:
I was standing in outpost and I saw this level 9 rogue wearing red arlor set, I asked him/her how much it was, and he told me 2m for whole set.
I traded him, and put 2m gold. Later, he told me to add vanity, so I cancel the trade and remove my vanity and traded him again.
After I put 2m gold + my vanity, he did not put red arlor set, instead he put red founders set. I saw it, and cancel immediately.
I was lucky and careful.
This person (scammer) has been creating many level 7-9 rogues wearing noob equips + red arlor set in outpost to bait people. And he/she changes names everytime, I'm guessing that each time the scams succeeded, he will put the gold and red arlor set in stash and remake toons using random names generator to avoid getting reported and start the scam again.
I have seen that rogue many many times, and a friend of mine almost got scammed today but after I told him how the scammer works, he said I knew everything he was gonna do. So, I decided to post here and hope lesser people will get scammed.
Remember, always be careful, check digits and items.
Thanks :smile:
