Hey guys,
Just wanted to take a quick second to put the word out on a scam I've seen going around the War's Retreat hub. A player was asking for some teammates to gang up for some quick GWD 2 kills. I agreed because I am farming the seals for reputation. I'm not concerned about the drop splits.
This person was very well geared, and the kills were indeed fast. During the hour instance, he started telling me about a "Drop duplicator program." He then insisted that he could boot up the program and make me rich. To demonstrate how it worked, he requested I trade him some cheap armor like bandos and then he would duplicate it and give me multiple sets back. He also offered to sell me this "program" for several hundred dollars. This is obviously just a new take on an old item doubling scam. I promptly reported him.
Once it became clear I wasn't dumb enough to fall for it, he took all the loot and tele'd and logged out. Im sure hes probably blocked me in game. I wasn't expecting much tbh. I mostly do solo content bc of stuff like this. He did snipe the d lance drop we got though and tele'd off with it. Kinda frustrated about that, but only due to the principle of it all. I got a nice stack of seals, and hopefully he gets banned.
Be safe and be careful who you trust.
Have fun 'scaping.
