    How did you get scammed on 07?

    I'll start off

    > trying to sell my whip
    > player puts up telly tab and says meet his friend at x location
    > think nothing of it and accept the trade
    > tab and then I realise what i did

    This was back when there was no grand exchange and whips were pretty rare. Feelsbadman​

    I got scammed 20m like a month ago by trying to be quick and scam the scammer for 40m. He was doubling money in one trade and I put up 20m and then he put up 40m and i almost clicked accept but i declined because I thought something was wrong. At this point my friend does it next and makes 25m off the guy. Then I do it again and he changes it to 2m at the last second and I clicked accept. Ended up chucking my bank at the arena and won though :p

    There was a scam several years ago before GE where people would change 1k or 10k rune ess to 100 or 1k and you just wouldn't realise. Was very popular and successful because I did it a few times myself :rolleyes:

    Yeah I remember that one too. On RS2 before EOC I got scammed a purple partyhat and to this day I don't understand how. Because he didn't take away his cash offer either. I literally accepted thinking I made a 50-70m profit and my cash pile didn't increase. Raged so hard.

    How did you get scammed on 07?

    Haven't been scammed on 07, but back in 2007 I got done by a few classics.

    > some random bloke I had been talking to all day gave me his old main, I logged in and it was all good, gave him 500k (half my bank) to xfer to the account. He logged out and changed his mains password.

    > trust trades at v west w1

    Few years after that I was trying to buy membership on here and got done a few blokes who would 50/50 and log after you hooked em the first half.

    This reminds me about the time i bought a firecape but didn't have a bank pin/another acc to hold my bank on

    stupidly i trusted this guy who i thought was my friend for about 10m which was quite a lot in early osrs n he ended up blocking me n never giving me anything bk lol.

    How did you get scammed on 07?

    Befriended someone that was in the clan PVP clan as me. Eventually trusted him with my OSRS account to let him stake/PVP on it. Changed passwords and went away for 3 months to focus on real life > Came back and made over 1b, posted a picture of my wealth on my Skype status > Got hacked 24 hours later for 1b+ > Found out it was the dude I befriended who hacked me.

    I did just get paid back by him though. I guess he couldn't handle the guilt. :p

    Been tricked with the rune essence scam too- don't quite understand the whip scam though. You traded your whip for the tab..?

    pretty much, the other guy says his friend will buy in camelot for a high price whiles offering a "free" tab to get there. n basically he's hoping that u forget that your whip is still in the trade offer.

    pretty dumb but ppl still fall for it
