ale2012 (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, Danny here with a bit of a shorter scammer post today. I was in Aldan's Temple of Zios when I saw ale2012 advertising that whoever gifted them a really great item would get the items on their trade list.


ale2012's trade list consisted of a single item, a pink long collar, quite a valuable item to be giving away!
I suspected this was a scam, as almost all "best gift wins" giveaways are. Why would you gift somebody numerous valuable items just for the potential chance to win an item on their list? How are you supposed to know they'll actually give you the item if you "win"?


I went up to ale2012 and asked why people couldn't just trade for the pink long instead. They already went through the trouble of putting it on their trade list, it would be silly to make people gift for it instead of trading for it, unless they had the intention of running off with people's gifts.
ale2012 went silent for a minute, before suddenly disappearing. I checked their player card and they had logged off the game entirely.

Make sure to report ale2012 for scamming. Stay safe and trade fairly!
-Danny
