so while trying to buy a zaros gs a guy with white phat/comp cape ect wanted me to add them and asked if i was trying to attract tree scammers and directed me to a yt vid about tree scammers exposed and how the person scammed the scammer and he had one of these so called people approach him after we talked a little and wanted me to hop worlds and watch from the ge wall and so i did as there was no harm. so he got 260mil from the person and that person tried to "get it back" and then we hopped back to w2 and was wanting me to advertise my money for a zgs but i remained silent and a noob character started asking if anyone had a bil or over and went right to me asking me to add them and saying hell give me zgs if i add him and then i was 100% sure it was all that 1 guys alt and called him out on it and the main logged and then the alt ran away saying they had my address but ive reported all 3 account involved as scammers. so case in point be on the look out for this scam in general and the scamming a scammer scam and of course stay away from the wild/red clan portal with anything of vaule

Woah reading a whole block of text is so hard.... in future, try breaking down you comments into sections D:


Just remember, if something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is lol. You shouldn't involve yourself in anything the sounds like a scam, and I feel bad for the person who lost that 260m...

Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.

Thank you for reporting the scammers in game. That is the best way to provide Jagex with the evidence they need to take action.

For advice on how to spot scams, please see the Support Centre article on Scamming Prevention Guide . The old saying, "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is" is good advice in dealing with others in RuneScape as well as the real world.
