My friend was on my account yesterday, and stupidly, he got scammed of 10 million, trying to buy an 8 attack work glove.

So I'm just curious - how many times have you gotten scammed before, and how much in total did you lose?

Never. I don't even trust my best friend nor my sister with my account info.
Heck, they don't even know my Login ID. Overprotective? Yea.
But if I do something moronic with it, I only have myself to blame.
Woot 500th post XD

Hmm...The most recent scam I was scammed was...letting Refund try out my 10 atk workglove. Then he stole it, and claims not knowing anything about it. Yet he wears a workglove while training and claims that it's clean and is/was saving up for a glove. Suspicious, no? :)

I think the question is, how many times did I scam. Numerous, numerous times. With the drop game in the henesys hair salon, where youd hide behind the stairs while your friend lured, drop game and bam! Wtf! Come back here with my shit! CC NOW!

When will you get over it? Are you going to continue to bring this up to make shits around here? Man thats only a freaking game get over it. What will happen if someone in real life steals 1 dollar from you? Are you gonna scream it everywhere and tell the police to work on your case 24/7. Seriously this is so immature.

I found wooden tops in beta and almost sold them for 40k (when they were 200k each), but my friend bought them first for 20k and a few dollars. After that, a few people tried to scam me (very few though), but I was experienced enough not to fall for them. One occurance that comes to mind was when I was at mushmom and someone claimed they could duplicate anything with they good old alt, alt, whatever, whatever. I put my blue maro, claimed to press the keys, then put my red maro. After that, I placed the green maro into the trade box for a total of three maros. The scammer claimed I was a hacker and changed channels.

Never. I rarely go and sell stuff, I find it boring and the meso-hungry people there annoy me so the only times I sell/buy stuff is when I know what the prices are.

Uhm..I was simpy replying to the topic. Have you read the Thread title? Last time I checked my post seemed to bo ontopic. No?

Yah but you only seem to post that to make more shit. You could have simply said to have lost a 10atk wg. Not necessary to make accusation. Do you have actual proof of it for us? Until you bring them, stop making those accusation.

Edit : Hey ghost_blade, why did you deleted your post?

Ghost, you were ontopic. But you went to far, you WERE trying to turn people against him. Don't even think about denying that. Your whining like a dog for treats. And you were " Simply replying"? Think again, you pretty muchgave us every single detail. Doesn't seem simple to me.
I got scammed once. For around 3mil. Back when i was around level 30 and new. One guy buddied me, saying he was looking for a blue tai andwas willing to give steelys for it. I was like " Okay, I'll see if I can find one" So I go to FM, and RIGHT away some guy traded me, I didnt even say anything yet, but he shows me a blue tai, now I was younge and dumb so I gave him 4mil for it. I look for my buddy and he just logged off. Right then I knew he scammed me. So yeah...after that, i was very cautious with meh mesos.

You can't figure why? Evidently you never tried to delete a post after someone else posted. At the time I deleted that post, you quoted me. Its fairly simple logic actually. Stay ontopic.

I agree with the fact that it's immature, but there's no reason to be so harsh about it. Refund was once the leader of my guild in Windia, a couple months later, when he gained my trust, he betrayed me too. It just hurts to have a friend, over the internet or not, betray you. SOme people get upset, and soem people just get angry. Everyone has a different way of controlling these emotions, and his way, although immature, is understandable. I suggest dealing with it until he gets over it, and maybe offer support and friendship instead of yelling at him.

Ghost, my condolences for your lost.

Its ok the first time but if you keep bringing it up, its more like you beg for attention. The first time i would understand "Ok thats sad". But when you keep saying it "He scammed me" it looks more like begging for attention.

Also, we would like to have a proof when people make those kind of accusation. Maybe its true but you know its easy to say "Olaph asked me to try 1 set of tobis and he stole them". But when making those kind of accusation bring proof along, otherwise it can be only trash talk.

We are a community here, so when troubles happen between 2 member of it, it should be dealt privatly. You can talk about it 1 time but further fights should be done away from the rest of the community.

Yes, I understand that, and I agree completely. The point is, that although immature, the way he is acting is understandable, back on topic.

I've never gotten scammed.

lol i was scammed by my "friend". He went on my friend in real lifes acc and asked me what my acc info was. The real owner of the acc knew the info. So, thinking it WAS my friend, i gave it to him. He took everything i had. lol he also tried to hack my friend but luckily when i chatted him and i was naked, i changed my friends info so she wouldnt be hacked lol my own stupid fault for trusting an online "friend"
