Friendly reminder to check out this thread to avoid falling victim to manipulation:
Beware Price Manipulation
- Investigate accounts that people claim to trade with, be cautious if the RuneScape account seems to be inactive for the last few months or appears to be an alt.
- Sometimes, people inflate their sales by
overpricing an item involved in the trade
.
- If a post looks suspicious, for example, failing to mention second parties, screenshots, or
prices that seem wildly inaccurate compared to recent trades within the thread, be very cautious
.
