So I was at GE and some guy(we will call him bob) with a phat ask me if I'm attracting, he says its basically anti luring and told me to look up a vid. The vid basically has the 'scammer' request you skull and show them something of great value with 0 pray next to wildy ditch behind GE. He will trade you money but only if you agree to telegrab the gold behind the tree (this is right behind GE). Obviously, the first part is a scam. The trick is, this is a cover-up for the real scam. Bob that started talking to me is actually luring. He acts like he one of these 'scammers' found him and he plays it out as if he was able to anti lure them and make like 250m. I already knew this was a scam based on the vid and being so old to the game. I played along but then didn't want to go any further and stopped before skulling myself. Bob who told me about it, unadded me and the scammer left. I don't think he realized I was taking pictures of the whole thing and this obviously is a scam. I will post each picture and a quick description of what is going on. This account should be investigated or something. I will try using gyazo to link the pictures but I used the snipping tool to take them.

The first picture happens shortly after he 'gets approached by the scammer'. The 'scammer' ask him to just give a little information about his wealth, etc. Tells him to convert his gp to shards, and take his phat out of keepsake. I covered some of my details as they are not important. The 'scammer' also asked him to use his prayer to 0 which is what he is saying.

Here is more of what was previously said, the 'scammer' also asks him to go to legacy mode. He suggests, the more you bring, the more you get initially. I play along in the private messages just to see what's actually going on as I didn't know exactly the outcome yet. Note: he asks the guy to unkeepsake his phat which has always been purple. It will lead to the real scammer later.

Here he just switches what he is wearing on his head and suggests he removed phat from keepsake. While I can't show later that if he did, in fact, remove his phat, it's pretty convincing he never did but we will see later. https://gyazo.com/ef1012109c7a6d7afd9f44c30bf88534

This is behind GE with the typical scammer lure talk going on. There are four people doing the 'scam' and Bob who is being 'scammed'. Two are standing next to wildy tree, and two are standing in safe zone ditch with Bob also in safe zone. The other guy on the safe side 'gives' malevolent energy for the fake scam or something. https://gyazo.com/221250159fbb252c8f7d239ced109349

Just moving along, 'scammer' asks him to promise to telegrab gold behind wildy tree right after 'trading' him 250m. The idea is, you run after the 'scammer' trades you and you get the 250m or high-value thing. Both sides sound terrible on their acting. https://gyazo.com/67a79a6a4a4fc1f357067742fbf35ea0

This photo happens very shortly after the 'scammer' 'trades' 250m to Bob and Bob just runs away, successfully anti-luring. He says he is up to 600m today alone. Notice he is wearing a purple phat. https://gyazo.com/11df7c5dd9a2b506a8ada9ef0b6a85ef

I ask to see his phat in trade, as he would not have been able to go to the bank yet to get it if he did bank it. All he need to do was show it and his part would have seem slightly more valid but it was actually still keepsaked as hovering over his head slot showed. I can't show as its sniping tool but he denies showing it in trade and is quite hostile about it. Bob is responding to the 'scammer', not me. https://gyazo.com/1aee6a76dc4f2c1f1b11f3b04346d3e9
