Goldfish102 (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.


Hello! Sunny here with another scammer. I found Goldfish102 in Jamaa Township, advertising that they were having a giveaway at their den. 


Goldfish102 said we would be playing a game, which was to trade them, accept twice, then cancel. In Animal Jam's trading system, there is no third accept/decline page, so this is a method of flash trade scamming.


They announced that they were giving away a magenta furry, and that the best trade would win the item. They said that a person who traded a black short was winning, after which I traded my yellow long and my black short. They continued to say that the person who traded the black short was winning. When I asked how I wasn't winning, they didn't say anything. 


I left the den for a bit, then tried to come back, but they locked me out. Earlier in the giveaway, I had been saying that I just wanted to observe, so there was no reason for them to lock me out unless they were scamming. I believe that the reason they said I wasn't winning was because I didn't accept the trade- another common feature in these kinds of scams.


Please report Goldfish102 for attempted scamming. Be sure to stay safe!
