Hello y'all,
after the update, i logged on to see a person going and advertising a 100m-150m money making method, lets call him John. and since i was waiting for my AH Flips to fill, i thought i would visit this guys island to check it out. After all, i've seen other scams like the discord scam, what possibly could go wrong? of course, quite a few people joins, follow by a person declaring (lets call him bob) that John was just farming social exp and it was a scam. all the people but Bob, Me and of course, John ,who advertised it stayed. He said he did have one, and Bob 'payed him' (reflection he probably didn't pay). afterward, he said it wasn't a scam and i payed John too, who gave me the idea that listing a expensive item at a low price like 100k, then cancelling it (to fool the AH flip bots) then listing it a expensive price would fool the bots into buying the items at a high price. I of course wen't into it and tryed it with my main weapon, my felthorn reaper, recombed, fabled (worth roughly 55m ish) problem was i was still partied to John with Bob as leader. Bob then summoned me after i was going to cancel the auction and bought it for 100k. then he blocked me and disbanded party. i know, all i can do is grind my felthorn back, ini fact i have 30m+ from flipping, but it's a shame i lost the money. I've come to some conclusions, Bob and John were working togtheter, as, looking for sympathy, i visited John's island, and said someone like 'y'know the party leader' i was trying to get his name as i forgot it, but John took it the wrong way, he probably though i was accusing him, saying that he knew Bob and he was masterminding it or smth. so he kicked me and blocked me. what we can all take away from this - NEVER, EVER TRUST ANYONE ONE THIS SERVER. like never, unless you know they're an actually good person.
here some stuff anyway:
- if somethings looks scammy, it probably is
-NEVER list your items on ah for a low price
- Always disband a party
anyway thats what i've gotta say. anyway, since i got scammed, i'm concidering making a new profile, i mean, i have a like 6 years old one that has little to no progress, except a crab hat. should i delete that one, try and get pro rank or smth else?
sorry everyone for the block of text. have you have a good day!
