    Saddest scam attempt done to you?

    I wanna hear the funniest scam attempts people have tried to scam you with.

    I have 2...

    1) Back in the day I was spending a whopping 11,000 RSGP for some account and he scammed me 11k LOL

    2) Some guy tried to convince me he had $100,000+ in his PayPal account. His only proof was a picture you could easily have editied with the source code of the website haha

    On Sythe: Someone made a name like Admin123 or something close to it, and tried to convice me in pm that he was a staff member and needed my password.

    On RS: Same thing, idiots make accounts with names to try and convice me they work for jagex and they need my password, lol.

    Moral of the story, you'd be amazed that even complete dumb asses try to scam people.

    RuneScape pin scams. The kids are so desperate that they don't even cover their own tracks and end up getting their money taken back anyway.

    I also had someone try this with 1M GP, I knew it was a scam but I couldn't pass up the chance to ban a guru for it. >_<

    Some guy failed to scam me for an account and then asked for me to pay him to "compromise for the time he wasted trying to scam me". I almost died laughing

    Wrong section but some guy was like:
    amg son go first to me I'm a leecher and I will give the account to my son.
    He said he worked for an anti-virus company and was very rich.
    Said that his son mattered the most and he bought him many RS accounts a week. T.T

    This was back when I played RS When staking was still around.

    I was lvl 126 at the time, he was about level 30 asked me to stake 100m cash for his 20m. He completely fucked me over when he removed shield, and it was a range only fight I only had Mage bow. and he told me he had 100k knifes.....

    Sad thing is I spent half the night, logged in LMAO then I just gave in!
