Always wondered what was up with the double your cash/Item/swag scam. Kinda feel like teasing the fools now ^.^. Also there's a bunch of scams I've never heard of posted, many thanks for the guide.

Also can't wait for ya to finish, looks very nice! ^_^

If you contribute a little piece of information that is not already on the guide, I wil add you onto a list of "contributors."

I definitely value your information, as I am only one person with one point of view. With many other people, there will be many different views. This will help me make my guide non- one sided.

You can make a post on the information you would like to provide or message me in-game. My private chat is almost always on. Except on special occassions.

If you would like to support me in my efforts to finish this guide and launch awareness of scams, just post a message that says "support". You will be added to the "supporters" list next time I view the thread.

It's for a good purpose. Some people may know a scam while others don't.

And I don't think that you can use "common sense" on all of these scams. Sometimes, scams can be hard to spot. While other scams can be pretty easy to steer clear of.

one player on one side of ge would say buying dwarven stout 1 mill for quest

on the other side of the ge a player would say selling dwarven stout 100k
