Hey all, Jade here with another scammer post! Yesterday, I found this scammer in Crystal Sands, advertising a giveaway of their list.
Unfortunately, I don't have a screenshot of their list. However, it included three long Spiked Collars.
Their account only had five achievements, which made me think that they were likely an alt account, so I went to their den to investigate.
After about a minute, the scammer followed us in and began to explain the rules of the giveaway.
They told us that we would be doing a bunch of different giveaway methods, and whoever had the most points in the end would win.
They told us that we would start with the "first jag" method, and continue from there.
They continued using this point system with various giveaway methods for quite a while. At one point, they had us repeat "we hat[e] scammers", likely to increase our trust in them and make us believe that they weren't scamming.
After about 15 minutes, playcookieplay36 entered the den and said that we should do trust trading for the next round. They left the den immediately afterwards. This account had a significant amount of animals, pets, and achievements, and a number at the end of their username that was very similar to the number at the end of fgt136. I believe that this was fgt136's main account, which they brought in to suggest a trust trading round in hopes that we would fall for the scam.
fgt136 asked what trust was, and everyone in the den told them that it was a scamming method and we shouldn't do it.
However, they insisted on doing it, telling us that they weren't scamming and that they just wanted to try it.
Everyone in the den continued to protest, so they then told us that if we wouldn't do trust, they would end the giveaway. We pointed out that they didn't even know what trust was two minutes ago and that it was an unfair method, and they finally agreed to do another round of something that wasn't trust.
They spun a wheel for the next round, then told us to count up our points and figure out who won the spikes.
We figured out that three people were tied for first place, so someone suggested that they simply split the spikes between the three winners. fgt136 said that they didn't want to do that, then locked everyone out of the den.
Please report fgt136 and their main account, playcookieplay36, for attempted scamming, and watch out for anyone using similar methods! Luckily, these two weren't able to take anyone's items during this particular scam.
Stay safe, everyone, and Jam On!
