cerisehood4 (AJPC)

Do not attempt to track down or harass any of the scammers we post. We only ask that you report them, and maybe block them.


Howdy everyone, it's Danny with a scammer I found yesterday. I was in Coral Canyons when I saw cerisehood4 advertising that they had a beta arctic hood on their trade list, a very rare item that is valued at approximately 150 black longs.


I checked out cerisehood4's trade list, which contained multiple long spikes and other rare items, but most notably an arctic hood. The hood on their trade, however, is not the highly sought after arctic hood they are claiming it is.


There is one special variety of arctic hood that is no longer available in the game and can only be obtained through trading. The hood in question has a turquoise base color with a green eyelash, while the look-alike on cerisehood4's trade list is turquoise with a black eyelash, worth a few RIMs at most.


Before I could intervene, another player walked up to them and told them it wasn't a beta hood, probably thinking they had simply got scammed. Instead, cerisehood4 immediately left the area. I thought that was suspicious, but didn't have enough evidence to know if they were really scamming, so I went to Jamaa Township of the same server. Sure enough, cerisehood4 was there again, still claiming their hood was beta despite being told otherwise just a few minutes ago. Another player was also telling them it was not beta.


Immediately after being confronted for a second time, cerisehood4 left in a flash (so fast you can even see the other player's chat bubble fading out in the screenshot below).


Make sure to report cerisehood4 for scamming. Stay safe and always make sure you have all the facts before making a trade!
