Someone was at the ge trying to buy some rings (jade i think) for more than what they were worth because they had "reached their buy limit" so i thought i would help out and make some gold in the process. I learned my lesson from this scamming trick. He was asking for 3k rings and he would buy them for 4k each. I only bought 1k rings making the total 3.5m, and yes, the rings costed 3.5k each at the ge even tho the ge price is 1.6k. Thats what made this scam so dirty because he knew the rings wouldnt sell if you didnt go thru with his scam. Anyways, when we went to trade i offered the rings, and he offered 3.9m, 100k less than what he originally said. Then he changed the price to 4m like he had made the mistake offering 100k less, but when he accepts, he goes back and changes the price to 400k instead of 4m so if youre not paying attention to the 0's, you get scammed out of 3.6m. When i realize what he had done, i declined (leaving me with 3.5m worth of rings that wouldnt sell) and he hopped worlds for his next victim. Even tho i knew the rings wouldnt sell, i put them up for grabs at the ge anyways for jusr a few coins less than what i paid. Surely enough within 20 mins they had all been bought at once with nearly a full gp return so i ended up getting my gold back. Whoever bought all those rings for nearly 2k more per ring, was probably that scammers next victim and i kinda felt bad after that, knowing someone else was getting scammed just like i almost did.
Also, I FOUND THAT GUY ON ANOTHER WORLD like 20 mins after i got my gold back. I was quick to unblock him from the ignore list from reporting him for scamming, just to ask him how his scamming was going in that world. His response was "fam" and hopped worlds again lol
Unblocking him didnt unreport him did it?
