Let's not derail the thread with a debate, about which advice is correct.
Trading RS display names for GP is a trust trade, which players enter at their own risk.
yes definitely. especially when what jagex have said about the issue has been posted many times already lol

Lets look at the situation from another point of view:
regardless of their intention to take the name afterward, the old name becomes available to everyone.
In a hypothetical scenario, if someone offered me 100m gp to alter my name merely because they disliked it, or found it offensive, would that constitute real-world trade? Not at all.
However, if they offered me real-world currency, say £100, to change my name based on their preference, that would indeed be classified as real-world trade because actual currency has exchanged hands.
So with that said, the scenario you explained is classed as a trust trade which is not against the rules. If you wish to accept the trade, that is your own responsibility and you should exercise caution as there is no "safe" way to complete this trade.
-
It's worth mentioning, that while this kind of trade isn't directly mentioned within the rules, there is a distinct similarity between trading your name and gold swapping between servers, which IS listed in the Rules
What everyone else failed to mention though, is that there is a rule pertaining to this.
Drum roll please!
So yea, do your due diligence.. It's highly likely that this person is trying to scam or trick you, since the name "H O N D A" isn't typically classed as a "rare name."
Hope my ramblings helped you in some way!
- The name and in-game currency both exist within the game.
- Someone is proposing in-game currency in exchange for you changing your name

That is scamming in general and doesn't prove the question by OP is against the rules. Trust trades are allowed on both the forums and in-game.
