Scammers

honestly ive bin on this website alot but i've forgotten my passwords for other accounts. how do u know a scammer when they come what do they do,say, so on. how to stop please post here and help me out. thanks.

 

If they say random jiberish and tell you to go first then say thanks, bye. They're a scammer

 

oh ok thanks but i'd still like to see more posts about this so i know when ima get scammed

 

Use a official mm and you will have no problem.

 

if they speed up the convo and seem to ask stupid questions

 

We don't have any official mms

 

lol..

 

learn to spell first.

Then, if they rush you into going first.

 

you a trusted MM. and if he tries to make you change your act of judgment. dont let him

 

If they don't wait for your opinion thats a sign of a scammer.

Also, Make sure to think your transaction through completely before undertaking it. The market can be pretty "impulse buy" friendly, and on impulse your defences arent as well prepared.

just look out for anything suss and you should be fine

 

Ok here are some signs of a basic potential scammer:

1. Untrusted Leecher asking for you to go first.

2. Leecher selling an account that is above 400 dollars

3. Not accepting a very well trusted MM

4. Wants to use an mm you have never heard of or seen

5. Fakes identity on MSN, AIM etc.

6. Rushes the conversation, constantly asking for money.

7. Is not willing to show you account, items or money (not required to, but usually sign.)

8. Selling a very high end account for a very, very low price.

9. People who are "quitting", "bored of", or "just worn out" of RuneScape. (in some cases)

10. People who "need" the cash for books etc. (in some cases)

11. No pics, not willing to provide pics or unable to access account.

12. Refuses to use MM. (Thanks Kin Kong)

13. Very demanding. (Thanks Kin Kong)

14. Many different MSNs, AIMs etc. (Thanks Kin Kong)

These are some basics that i just thought of off the top of my head. If you can think of any more that would be great.

 

Unfortunately, your statement leads me to believe you are a ban evader. If not that, you own multiple accounts here on sythe which, in my eyes, my say you have tried scamming before. What's the point of this thread? Trying to gain some valuable information so that you won't get caught this time?

 

Someone have quit runescape and sold theirs accs, without scamming

 

I know, there a legit sellers like that. But most scammers use that little maneuver to cover up their trails. I'll edit it so it says in some cases.

 

1. Refuse to use an MM {Middle Man}
2. Many differen't Msn.
3. Hasty to trade Fast...
4. Commandive.

 

I think there's a sticky that discusses the signs of a scammer, check out the black market.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
U SPAM UR WAY UP TO GURU??

as to u:
if they are saying u go first or use an mm... and then if u say ok mm and they say no! mm takes sooo long to find...

 

Rush into things, allways ask u go first, you can just tell anyways. But some are good like nick

 

Well remember, some ask you to go first because you are not very well trusted. I'd say, if they are trusted and can PROVE it with valid info, then negotiate. But if they are leechers or anything like that, proceed (or not) with caution

 

He might or might not of, but i did.
Anyways, just always be suspicious of people. Try to use a MM or a really well trusted person. ALWAYS TAKE PICTURES IF YOU GET SCAMMED!! text logs are not proof.
