    Scamming

    Why does everyone on this website scam? Do you even have game accounts? First time I use, I'm scammed, then I see like 20 callouts.

    Scamming

    Scamming is a method of profit, just like trading over time.

    Everyone does what they do because they have something expendable and they want something.

    Scammers have time and morality expendable, but they want anything of value.

    Hating scammers for what they do is not the method. Helping to protect yourself and everyone else from scammers/hackers/blackhats is the best way to go about things. If you follow all the stickies and use a trusted MM, you won't put yourself in that situation.

    Scamming

    People scam when they weigh risk and reward and decide that it's best to scam. Someone with 1000 vouches probably won't scam for $20, because it isn't in their best interest. Someone with no vouches might scam for $200, because they have no reason not to.

    Scamming

    Its not our fault you chose shady individuals to deal with. There are TONS of users who dont scam. You probably went for the best price and got fucked, well now you may think better of it huh!?

    Look for established users with REPUTABLE vouches, not just randoms with what seem to be good deals. These scammers frequent all the same trading websites, get banned, ban evade and do it again.

    Scamming

    Use a middleman and you wont get scammed. Accounts are always recoverable so can't guarantee you wont get scammed with them. Also Paypal is bad because you can be chargedback at a later date.
