Lets share info on anti-scamming Empty Lets share info on anti-scamming

Post by ishinomorileon Sat 17 May - 14:43

I was thinking of making this one in the official forum of PKO...
but I want more info of recognizing scammers.
if you guys got some tips on how to recognize these pesky scammers, lets share them here. Cool

As for me, I know not much on it but i do know:
1) tradition way of scamming is you pay them first before they trade you their item(s) from their 'another character'.
2) he/she wants to borrow items
3) he/she wants to try your items before buying
4) mastermomo's technique of scamming. trade items, but full inventory or cancel trade, and do it numerous times and trade u a useless stuff when u off-guard.

well, as for ways to prevent scamming, i hope ppl here can share out their ways too.
As for me, me follow these 4 Quotes of Anti-scamming (created by my lil sis, Cyllia) :
1) There is no borrowing, there is only trading.
2) There is no trying before buying, there is only buying then using.
3) There is no paying 1st in trading, there is only one-shot-trading.
4) There is no buying rum codes, there is only buying item mall items.

So, any neat ways in anti-scamming?
hope i post this on the right section...

i met a player using that technique too, dunno if it was mastermomo all along too.
he wanted to trade my full Incantation set to his fused incantation set.

cancel trade too much, but i played along. he tot i'm a fast clicker in trading. yet, i'm quite laid back, fast in spotting a deal but never too fast in trading. so, i'd never get my fingers on dat 'confirm' button b4 anything...lol

he actually let me see he put newbie set into the trade. he was quick on canceling, but i'm sure i saw newbie vest instead of the bucanneer lvl 45.

Trade me first NO

Too many things trade me half first NO

Give me your acc i pass the rum to you NO

I give u my pass you give me your NO

When you see someone who is a well known scammer HELL NO

Call for me when there are too many items to trade YES
(provided im free)

Check BEFORE ALL TRADES YES
