CSR has access to logs should there be a complaint made for an actual scam. The current system is improved of classic as there are atleast notations of items that get added to the trade window.
Displaying what gets dropped in the trade window in real time with a blue link is a huge step in eliminating scams.
Back on live the popular scam on my server (which I was both a victim and perpetrator of) was that you trade someone a fungi tunic in the trade window, and they put in their plat at whatever legitimate price they are trading for. Once they confirm you had the fungi in the trade window, put in their plat, and hit trade you "accidently" cancel the trade. After they put their plat back in the trade window you drop a cloth tunic in there and hit trade immediately. Once the trade is complete you log off while you wait for the heat to cool down.
On P99 the trade item indications help create more awareness at the time an item is dropped in the trade window, and even if fooled the CSR is a lot more involved in tracking down scammers so simply logging off wouldn't save you here.

Wow, that is really interesting.
I would never get CSR involved over minor plat but definitely over big time scams. Glad they put so much time into resolving things but yet another one of those things that makes you see why it is hard to keep people on CSR for long. I can imagine they are dealing with crap people do 24/7.
