What is involved with a Scammer's Characteristics ?

I was curious about a few things when coming down to the core of a scammer's character.

1. Does deceitful actions give us a inside look on a person's character? Of course, but does it help conclude that the specified person is bound to scam?

I believe so. Everyone has their own agenda's in everything they do, anything a human does it fueled by an agenda. When lying to another person, or being deceitful is to gain something or make the other person believe something that is NOT true.

So, let me start to get to the point of this thread. Very recently I was doing a RS gp trade with another seemingly trustworthy member of the sythe community wich in-fact is hard to come by as we all know. As I was doing this transaction/transfer the seller asked around about my methods, as anyone would to insure that their trade was infact safe. The person that he asked is a VERY trusted person on Sythe concluding over 50+ vouches and thousands traded, and thousands trusted weekly. This person was deceitful to him, claiming I was a scammer!
Now before I go any further, this thread is not about reporting, or "snitching" on this person it is to get a community response on a typical scammer's character traits. I would also like to know what I should do in this situation.
This person that was deceitful in my eyes had his own agenda for the GP, he offered my seller a low price of .6, while I was offering 1-1.25/M. Would he be deceitful to get the trade? In all my years of schooling I've learned that's not a true business virtue. You do not lie, or manipulate the truth or what you know about to get a deal, you are competitive with the other person to get that deal.

Now, my question is, when someone lies upon another person when they have had no relations with this person other than a possible GP sale, is this a character trait of a possible scammer? Or am I just someone who doesn't know how the human mind works?

 

If I understand correctly, somebody implied that you scammed them in order to win the customer? In that case, they have the character traits of a lying bastard, and it's not much of a stretch from there to a scammer. So yes, they could potentially be a scammer, but then again anybody could be.

I'm not an expert, but I do seem to have a natural knack for reading people, particularly through text. When it comes to RuneScape 'black market' trades over instant messengers, most of the traders are in their early teens, which tends to make the job a lot easier. Just draw the trade out, ask questions, don't jump at the chance of a bargain. The main reason anybody falls for a scam is because they weren't paying enough attention to what was going on.

 

Don't get it ._.

 

rofl.

 

i dont get it lol.

 

someone from sythe tried to put my friend on teamviewer to keylog him i tryed it and he keylogged my accounts and it wont let me recovery them saying invalid user.

 

i dont get it?

 

If what I read is correct, a guy lied saying you were a scammer, and offered a lower price on top of that in order to win the customer?

If that's the case, that doesn't mean he's a scammer, it just means he is desperate for business and is a faggot.

 

Scammer's are usually hasty and try to rush you into quick decisions using guilt and persuasion. Never make a trade that you feel obligated to make or rushed and don't settle for any less that you truly want to.
