Only accept trades that fit in trade window , ONLY . If your selling an item and somebody offers an extremely high price and tells "gift me first " just tell no -_-
Always double check trade window before you confirm , if you other person canceled trade and then traded again be double carefull of what he offers .
If you see somebody in town buying a 100% useless item for a price higher than in ac , its also sort of a scam. What they do is post an item from their alt and the go on the main account and send messages in chat that they are buying that exact item . When you buy that item from cs and trade them hoping for quick profit they "already got one"
If somebody asks to borrow an item or offers to craft you nekro if you give the your ingredients it's most probably a scam , never give items to players that you will want back . BUT this does not apply to friends / guildies that you trust and know for a long time . But still be careful
This is a common way of scamming now days : somebody offers you a glitch/bug/mod/hack and tells you that they can install it to your account and add you a lot of gold , plat , pets etc , etc . Well if you give them your account info , they just take your acc and change the password . NEVER give account info to anybody except devs/mods , there are no hacks or any gold/item publication glitches in AL
This one is similar to the other one : sometimes you will get a pm from a fake dev on a social app ( most commonly it's line ) , what scammers do is crate and account with the name of dev , then pm you and tell that you won a content and that they need your account info . Dont fall for that they will steal your account . Anything devs want to say to you they will do it in game of via forums .
Hope that will help you avoid getting scammed in the future ( sorry for any grammar mistakes or if something doesn't make sense , I fell like I'm drunk lol ) if you need info on any other type of scamming , I can add it .
