Scammers in a trade room

[DaringPrinzezz]

well, i went to a trade room, and there was this person looking for flag hats. He said that if he had a flag hat he would give the person (me) trading it ** teleport magic for it. I so happened to have these hats for trade. He said that if I traded my Teleport magic * star for the flag hat, to his friend, he would give me ** star Teleport magic. So i did what he said. When his friend (the person who wanted my magic for it) was trading with me, he put the flag hat. When I accepted, he accepted and the trade went through. After I got the flag hat, i put in a trade request to his friend(who was looking for the hats). he canceled my trade request and ran away with his friend. ! He took my teleport magic (not needing the hats anymore) and ran away with his other friend(who i traded my magic to). After I traded him my teleport for the flag hat, he deleted me from his friend list and said "bye bye" with a smile on his face. He didn't give me the **teleport magic.


And when my sister went on, she went to their room and saw them laughing about it. She confronted them about the matter but all they said was that they didn't do anything wrong and booted her out. The person who scammed me was wearing my magic. My brother decided to become their friend to track down where they are and if they're starting to scam someone next.

VMK citizens, if u know them plz tell them to stop what they're doing because it's WRONG!


I was lucky enough to take a screen shot of him (using my teleport magic) but i can't post the screen shot. I hope this will help u guys to become alert that these people may scam u next.They can mainly be found in the highest trade rooms.

Huh? You had the hats to trade, but you traded one star teleport? Can you take the time to make a proper post? And if you both accepted how could he run away?

I guess I don't understand.

You gave him 1* teleport and a flag hat. He gave you 2*. Is that right?

Where's the scam? Can you explain please?

Thanks!

DaringPrinzezz, please do not name people on the boards in an unfriendly manner. I edited your post and removed them.

Also, this might be mean but it's not a scam. A scam is when they run away with your stuff, in this case they just ran away without trading. If I am reading this correctly.

I think what happened was this was a two person scam, 1 person said That guy will give you 2 star teleport if you trade me 1 star teleport for the flag hat, Correct me if I am wrong; This is the same thing that happened to me when I tried my Inferno Test, the person offered me a ticket that " lead to a magical place with lots of free rare " I said No because I am smarter then that, then A person traded me and Offered alot of 5 star magic and said did that guy offer you a Ticket and I said yes, then he said I will give you all this magic if you get that ticket from that guy I said Ok Then I left the trade room.

i edited it with more information. so u could understand it better.
(sorry i rushed it because i had to go to a store)

Oh I see now the old two person trade scam, sorry about what happened, but you should never become involved in a trade involving two traders unless you are absolutely sure they are trustworthy, if ever....

I agree...one window, one person, make sure the items you are trading for are there.

I'm sorry, don't have much sympathy, as VMK has said many times, make sure the items you want are there before you hit ok. You let them do this to you.

 

[DaringJona]

No. She did not let this happen to her. I know because i am her sister! She was scamed by two people. I was there when it happened and its not cool!

 

[Maleficent2]

Please forward your screen shot to the Moderators.

Thank you.

Never, never, never trade with two people.

If it's not all in the one trade window at that time, then you may lose your items.

Yes, it's a scam for trusting people like the op. But, as stated, she let it happen. This was not a multi window trade for something like sparrow or inferno (and you can easily lose everything in these trades).

It should have been done all at once.

I'm sorry this happened, but hopefully you remember this the next time someone comes to you with a three person trade.

Yes, she did! What people are trying to say here is that she gave "person A" an item, expecting to receive an item form "person B". Once you give something away...consider it gone.

If the two scammers trust each other so much, and are doing a legitimate trade, "person A" should have given his stuff to "person B" and then the trade with your sister would take place in one window with one person.

She fell for a blatant scam and, while the scammers were in the wrong, your sis has now learned a valuable lesson and needs to accept her role in allowing it to happen.

I agree 100% Diva! She let it happen to herself by giving person A an item so that she'd get an item for person B to give her the item she wanted. It's sort of common sense to know that when your trading with more then one person your bound to get scammed.

Case closed!

im sorry, but that is a bad trade, not a scam... from the way i understand it... it seemed like a fair trade, but that camera magic joke was very funny... lol


I might sugjest a leader next time or telling the scammers to combine their offers if they really were together... if they were scammers they would have backed off
