The scam/lure i mentioned, i researched it and found it. It is called the badge lure scam. Don't trust anyone in this game. Scammers are everywhere. You can trust some friends, but never bring expensive gear when someone asks you to, most likely a scam. Thanks all and good luck avoiding these kinds of people.

Wondering if anyone here has seen/heard of this scam-

A player takes you to clan camp and has you join their clan, then gets you to drop items with the guarantee that you will get santas and hundreds of mills after you trade them to show your empty inventory, then trades to see that you dropped them. Then proceeds to trade you a decent amount of cash and a single crate or box of some sort that spams your inventory full of the one item. You can't drop or destroy these items. At the same time a message pops up in chat box and will not go away no matter what option you choose. Meanwhile, the player is picking up your stuff right in front of you and there is not a damn thing you can do about it.

Reason I am asking about this is because I am trying to research this scam to warn friends of the one item that mysteriously fills your entire inventory. I cannot remember the name of the item from the stress and confusion of this scam. Is there a name to this scam or is it a new one to add to the books? Somone was telling me of a scam like this just they gave you a tele tab to teleport to the "party".
