    Sigh one can't get scammed in these games. What happens with this scam is that it targets people's greed to buy an item they know to be worth less than the item they desired. So in a sense the people that are "victims" here are in fact guilty of attempting to take advantage of someone and pick up a pricey item far bellow market price.

    Again being greedy is what leads to 99.99999999999% of these scam threads since the dawn of these forums.

They will sign off.

    Absolutely the same thing I've been doing, except I have been telling them I have it "luckily" in inventory, and that "that" is their lucky day. Have seen dozens of them disappear. I tried to keep track of their main acc sellin actual items and their alts, and I sent few reports to STS, at least to take a look, but never got answer and eventually I stopped. Now I just ignore them. But it is pretty big problem, I could see this as the reason for many new players and potential great players and great community contributors to leave at their very beginnings. IMO, pretty big problem.

    here is an uneducated remark, just because you want to live up to a" stereotype" doesn't mean it's correct or righteous, a scam is a scam and using this stereotype as a scapegoat only makes you a more horrific scammer than those who don't hide their shame. so if you think just because your female it's your job to scam then your truly evil and should rethink your standards.
