    Yes to add to this, our guild just had an impersonator scamming the officers that are listed on the guild pages. Unless you hear directly from that person and they're already your friend, don't trade items to people with similar names claiming to be the gm or another officer.

    I want to say 1 thing :
    The acc scams

    1 time I got scammed where i lost 400k
    The deal was 50% start 50% after checking if the acc is true.
    I gave him the 50% ( ithought now he will ran away)
    He gave me the acc infos and they were wrong.
    Then he said me that the acc is over google+.
    So I logged in with the google + and it worked.
    I was happy that he didn't scammed me.....I gave him the other part of the gold.
    I tried change the password but i noticed that I couldn't change the pw.
    It is not possible as soon as it is not my main acc in my device....After 2 hrs later he finished his scam and changed the password.
    I wanted to add this because when you try to buy an acc google+ doesnt work and you can find out that it is a scam

    NOT: I know I wrote this text strange. I'm sorry for it...I can't do it better :/
    And when I am wrong please anyone correct it I don't want to give wrong information.

    I don't know under what category this falls under, but last night a guy advertised he was selling 4 locked crates for 45k. So I traded him and put in 45k as he put in 4 locked crates. I press confirm and then he swiftly removes one crate so that im actually buying 3 crates for 45k. I message him and say one more and he says laaggg. I thought I'd give the guy another chance after he closed the trade window but he tried the same friggin' thing again on me.

    Bottomline is NEVER RUSH TRADES. One crate may mean nothing to those who have been playing a while. But for some that is worth their potions for levelling, decent gear so as not to die too much.

    Thx your guide's link added to new players guide...I want to add one more thing.

    Newbie Stealer
    This scam will happens when you tell someone that you got an arcane/mythic item[red/orange colored items] at a low level and the scammer tries to trick you and buy it at ridiculasly low price

    Example: you purchased some plats and got Samael's Egg when you tell someone that you got a red Egg or samael's egg they will tell you that they will buy it for 500000gold! Don't think that he offers more than the egg cost...the egg costs about 24000000g many new players get affected by this...Never trade a orange/red item without checking the price in CS/Auction House
