The Wilderness duplicate scam:

How it works:
The person who is scamming finds a victim and private messages him/her the following
"Hey can you help me with coding? Just bring no items, because we are going to the wilderness. It's some kind of glitch thingy." The person will think "Wow there must be no scam into this, because he told me to bank everything. Sure why not I'll do it!" The person who is scamming will have 2 items with him that is cheap. (Flax, had to think of something LOL). The person who is getting scammed follows the person who is scamming him/her to the Wilderness Line. The person who is luring will drop the ONE FLAX on the ground, and give ONE to her/him. The scammer will say "You see how i have 28 spaces in my inventory? You see it right?" The victim will see 28 spaces in his inventory. (BECAUSE THE ONE FLAX THE SCAMMER HAD WAS ON THE GROUND). Now the scammer will say "Okay, i was working on this C++ Code language that Jagex has, and i was trying to duplicate it, you see how i gave you that flax and i had 28 inv. spaces? Now I'ma try to duplicate the flax :P " The victim is probably thinking to him self, "Hey, i have no items on me so he cant kill me anyways, so this is risk free WOOT." The scammer says "Cross over the wilderness line, and dance here and jig here, and then drop your item here, and your flax will get doubled" (THE SCAMMER PICKS UP THE FLAX AND GOES TO LEVEL 1 WILDERNESS WHERE WHEN YOU DROP, EVERYONE CAN SEE IT IN LESS THEN 3 SECONDS.) The person does what he says and drops it, the scammer sees he/she dropped it, and he drops his own. The person freaks out and says "OMFG IT WORKS?" Then the victim will be amazed that "Wow it worked, and it was risk free." NOW! The scammer tells him that he wants to make bank of of this, that can you help me. But i'll let you do it first. The person agrees and grabs his SANTAZ and does the same thing again. This time the scammer sees the SANTA on the ground and picks it up, and logs out.
-Births! :D
