WARNING: Transfer scammer - Gilmore
 
level 10 alt bard Named Gilmore was going to transfer about 18k in items for me; and he decided to log instead.

The worst part is I even tipped him well!

Anyways, I know the rules state that its 100% my fault and i assume all risk so I don't expect my items returned, but I hope when a GM is bored, to look through the logs and ban the accounts associated with that I.P. address. He Insta-logged so he has an I.P. exemption I'm pretty sure, so maybe that can help narrow it down.

I wish the rules were a little different since this IS a private server with a pretty tight knit community. Would be nice to have a deterrence against people with such behavior.

Very well!

not to sound like a dick, I feel for you really, but you trusted a lvl 10 bard with 18k worth of gear?

I've done transfers with all types of people and never had an issue. this is the first time i've been scammed. I just felt like a small community like this that it'd be quite hard to scam. Usually emulators have a trusting fan base. Oh well, someone got lucky today.

There tons of trustworthy people on the server, but there are also a lot of scammers.

need a transfer look for a familiar guild tag, you usually cant go wrong with a high end guildmember

Yep, learned my lesson. Oh well, i must of had a lucky streak with mules not scamming me before!

Shugoran 06-02-2013 02:05 AM

I've had unprotected sex with all types of people and never had an issue. This is the first time I got aids.

Shugoran 06-02-2013 02:21 AM

yes because aids and pixels are comparable.

Protect yourself. Use someone in a recognizable guild.
