I'm not sure if this person exists on Sythe. They added me on skype telling me they'd sell me gold for .43/m
So I agreed to buy 500m. This person then said they also have items for sale and sent me a link to a *FAKE* Imageshack picture which required me to run a java program/update to view (Horribly stupid if you fall for that).
I refused to open it and wanted to get on with the trade. They said they were looking for rep on Sythe and that they would go first. I said sure but we can get an MM if you'd like.
Further on they tried to send me a "picture" which was obviously an exe program.
I then said look, give me your Paypal email and let's choose a world. After sitting there saying all I needed to know was in this "picture" I said we're not here to exchange picture we're here to trade gold for cash. So once they realized I was not going to install the java applet or save the program they sent to me, they deleted me.
Here are some main pics from the convo, not sure if they are a member because I could not find them through the search function and they apparently said they could not pm me on Sythe because it wasn't "working".
I am aware that it sounded like a scam from the start, but if they were to actually trade the GP I was going to pay and be on my way..
After I refused to run the java on the imageshack link and refused to accept the file I got this -
Sorry if this person is either an imposted of "M A G H" or if no one of that name exists at all. Suppose this is also a heads up to some people that this person is cruising around Sythe looking for skype names to add and attempt to scam. Beware of the skype add "kaith.ashlynn"
Thanks.
