Probable Cause

Rahul · Oct 16, 2008

Okay well everyone here knows about those really easy to pick out scammers on the forums. 'yea i pay u wut eva auto win is 4 acc kthx'. I think people like this are 1.) Trying to get their post count up. Or 2.) Are scamming. If you were truly going to buy an account you wouldn't say you'll pay anything for it or give a ridiculous number like 900 USD. OR selling a maxed account for 90 USD. C'mon seriously thats what probable cause is. I think the punishment for just signaling that its a scam should either be a 1 or 3 day ban. After all the only to reasonable answers for this type of behavior is trying to get their post count up or trying to scam, they deserve a temp ban anyhow.
This would draw away a lot of those 12 year old scammers who can't help but to sound dumb and obvious that they're scamming. I think thats what Sythe needs.

And hey, if your innocent, don't sound dumb and like a scammer, you'll be back in a few days, no big deal.

Idontsupport. Alot of people on this forum are dumb. And its very dificult to tell a real offer from a fake offer. Once on rsforums.org I was selling a account for a.w $90 some kid came and offered $300 it was a legit offer, just a little strange. But I think people who flood the market making riduculous amounts of offers on alot of accounts should be banned.

If you are idiotic enough to get scammed, then you deserve it.

And so if i were to go onto a thread and say "Ill pay the a/w, add my msn" that means im a scammer? A bit stereotypical, are we?

I don't agree, some kids do sell cheap [or expensive] and alot of the time it is legit even if their grammar is a bit off.

Honestly.. HOW HARD IS IT TO NOT GET SCAMMED?

I just want to know. Do small trades, a lot and you won't be scammed <_<

I NEVER get scammed. I ALWAYS waste an hour of my life with a scammer. Thats why I think its necessary. And it doesn't need to be like my examples, it can be even more obvious.

I don't agree, like TJ said a bit stereotypical, and it is sometimes kind of hard to tell the difference between offers and fake offers but unless your dumb and DON'T USE A MM! God, some people just don't ever listen if people used a middleman then nobody would be complaining about damn scammers.

The way to find a scammer is if you find accusations on their threads....

Too bad they usually scam a couple ppl before someone gets proof and they get them banned =/
