Now, let's go through the common scams that people get scammed with:1. The Invisible Fake GM 2. The GM Gameshow 3. The Duplicating Service1. The Invisible Fake GMFirst off, you're in a Chatroom. You're making a trade with someone...=== And then a GAMEMASTER(Fake GM) starts talking!PLEASE REMEMBER... ANYONE WHO TALKS IN A CHATROOM HAS THEIR NAME IN THE LIST Also check the NUMBER of people in the Chatroom. ^^^^^^ (2/2)?=== If this happens to you, take a screenshot and upload to Photobucket, copying the DIRECT LINK TO IMAGE (on the bottom of the page) textbox, and posting in the Report a player section.2. The GM GameshowYou are minding your own business and...QUOTE | iamGMgiggle : Congratulations! You have just won a +10LKH and +10BananaHat! iamGMgiggle : Answer this question "What MVP is an angel AND a poring?" iamGMgiggle : To get the prize, just PM me with the following: iamGMgiggle : Answer , Account name, password. | If a GM ever does an event for ONE PERSON, and doesn't announce it... Then either they're a bad GM or they're an imposter.=== If this happens to you, take a screenshot and upload to Photobucket, copying the DIRECT LINK TO IMAGE (on the bottom of the page) textbox, and posting in the Report A Player section.. 3. The Duplicating ServiceA player comes to you and says they can duplicate your item. If you can see them... rightclick their name and click "Open 1:1 Chat". This way, you can get a small window with them saying they're doing something illegal. Screenshot them. If you can't see them... screenshot the chat window, but make sure you get their ENTIRE conversation.=== If this happens to you, take a screenshot and upload to Photobucket, copying the DIRECT LINK TO IMAGE (on the bottom of the page) textbox, and posting in the REPORT A PLAYER section.

| Good one Cathc In any circumstances NEVER give out your id/pass to anyone even a proper gm because there is no good reason they will need it
Also someone once tried this on me
first they offer 2 trade a card for a another in public chat, when you deal them to trade they will first put the right card in the trade window and then cancel the deal making some stupid excuse. Then they will re deal but this time they will put a different card, most people don't check for the name a second time and since all card sprites look the same theres no way to tell with a quick glace
ALWAYS CHECK YOUR DEALS THOROUGHLY | |
