ATTACHMENTS AT BOTTOM OF POST
Sweet Speci - http://sythe.org/member.php?u=131632 - has just scammed me out of a level 76 account. I recieved a PM from them stating they wanted to buy my account (see attached picture). So I logged into MSN and chatted. Sweet Speci basically offered to pay $10 instead of $5 and stupidly, I accepted to go first. I waited for paypal payment to arrive, it did not, then I got the message 'Not a good idea to trust someone in the online gaming world :]' and they LOG OFF. I say they as I have no idea of the gender, but I'd say Female due to the pink MSN background + name. Moving on, I logged into runescape with another account, added the account that had just been scammed (the lvl 76), and chatted to my scammer. See the 3 attached Runescape PM chats, but this doens't really class as proof I know.
By the way, I searched for sweet speci with the forum search feature and found this topic http://sythe.org/showthread.php?t=335180&highlight=sweet+speci claiming that they were a scammer and using two accounts, the other being SonicD. Then I found http://sythe.org/showpost.php?p=4911146&postcount=3 in one of SonicD's threads. A bit far down the chain perhaps but it may count towards proof that this guy/girl is a scammer.
NOW this is where the meaty proof comes in. I don't have any record of the first MSN conversation, but as you can see from the final RuneScape chat picture I am asked to log into MSN to chat. So I do. And this time I am cautious and took pictures of the whole conversation, to try and help this scam report thread. See the final two attached pictures for MSN details and the chat log. You can probably tell I was trying to get some kind of detail that would prove useful in getting them banned, I can only hope I was successful.
I am not bothered about the level 76. It's an account that's been with me for a big portion of my RuneScape days and I'm a little bit pissed even if I was only selling it for $5. However so long as this person get's punished I will be happy. I hope what I have provided is enough.
I am trying to recover the account now, if I do get it back I will record the last-logged-in IP and hopefully an admin will compare it to Sweet Speci and SonicD's forum IPs and see if they match.
