Hey guys, got another scam/lure for everyone to watch out for. Its called the
Candle lure
and it happens in w301 seers village and other worlds.
First of all, BEWARE of players named '
Cobba
' and '
lGOT CABBAGE
' (spelled with a lower case L) as these two are partners in crime for it.
So here is what it is, basically they ask if you're rich and want to play a game with them called 'The candle game'. They then tell you to bring your best items/cash with you & that the more brought, the more reward you get and follow them to the Temple of Ikov candle room (where you get the boots of lightness). What they do when upstairs of that room is they check your inventory to see what you brought through trade of course, then trade you an unlit candle and tinderbox. After that part is done, they then tell you to trade back the tinderbox and go downstairs to the far end of the room by the web. They'll tell you to drop all your items after they go back upstairs. Once they hope the lured player has done that, they'll tell you to extinguish the candle and trade it back to them. Now keep in mind that the rooms are
DIFFERENT WHEN LIT AND UNLIT
, therefore you are unable to go back downstairs to obtain your items after you have 'dropped' them.
Hope this helps players in the future to avoid this scam. And if either of the aforementioned players are seen, REPORT THEM IMMEDIATELY.
Enjoy your scaping fellow players,
Final Potato/Rush.
