Necromancer24 made a thread about a week ago talking about a new scam he faced, so I will make a thread about a scam I faced. This scam is a very complicated one that can end up getting you banned with evidence and scamming someone else out of hundreds.
In my case, the scammers were [email protected] and someone else, both ban evaders.
Scammers: Person A, Person B
Person being Scammed: Person C
Person being framed: You
1. Person A adds you on MSN
2. Person B adds Person C on MSN, claiming to be you
3. Person B tells Person C that he will PM you a code word (in this case bananna99) to prove that Person B is who he says he is (you)
4. Person A tells you about a lucrative MM oppertunity for a large trade, and asks you to PM "them" a specific codeword, however, you are actually PMing Person C.
5. If you PM the codeword (I didn't), Person C now thinks person B is you, and will be scammed by them. Then, you will be framed and banned.
It is pretty complicated, post if you don't fully understand it.
