Okay, I've decided to post this thread because I literally see almost half of the threads in all the account sections all scammers. Well, I've decided to show you guys on how to stop these scammers once and for all!
1. Recovery Pictures
-Your just gazing at this picture, wondering if its alright and not edited. Well, you could do this:
a)Check the bottom message where Jagex gives us worthless information, now log into any account of yours! Now, before you press the PLAY RUNESCAPE button, check the information, is it the same as the one you saw in a thread? If not, this is probably a scam due to that the picture is that old. Or, just ask the owner to change the Pictures with recent ones.
b)If this guy has MSN/AIM, PM him. Now if your interested, offer and stuff, then, ASK FOR THE RUNESCAPE NAME! Once you receive the name, go to Runescape.Com. Go to the section "Recover A Lost Password". Insert the name, then select "Someone Else Knows My Recovery Questions." Now, when it pops out, it will list the first 5 recovery questions. LOOK AT THESE! When there are no recoveries, the picture should look like this:
->
Also, this account is all the way F2P. You could tell by the questions, there are no questions asking about how your account has been members.
->
On the other hand, this account DOES have recoveries and membership (above)
2. Skills
-You are amazed by the skills, but this can be deadly and can be easily edited. You can simply prove this account by 2 simple steps:
1. Ask the owner to meet him with you face to face. Then, look at his account name and check the highscores and Runescape.Com, or just at any Forums that offers a Combat Level calculator.
2. Ask others who had bought accounts from this owner and ask questions about the owner such as: Did ***** scam? Did ***** say anything about his/her account? Stuff like that.
3. Price
-You could never be too sure about the price. So just remember this:
LOOK AT PEN'S PRICE CHECK THREAD, THIS IS REALLY REALLY HELPFUL!
If the price is too low, then assume its a scam. But if this guy says hes quitting Runescape, just let him be.
EDIT:Maybe if you MODs are nice, make this a sticky? Cause a lot of people aren't gonna see this thread on this section
I Hope This Has Helped You Buyers To Not Get Scammed!
