Made0f12une Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 What's the point of this thread really. Wtf was the point of that post..... Someone care to enlighten me on this Veracs Scam? Stop flaming and read the whole topic idiot... Isn't there another scam where they swap out the skirt for a bronze skirt (such as the black skirt scam)? I'm skeptic when buying anything in bulk. The more money I spend in one wack the more weary I am of getting scammed ^^ClicK^^"I backed my car into a cop car the other dayWell he just drove off sometimes life's ok...Alright already we'll all float onAlright don't worry we'll all float on" - Isaac BrockDays Hunting:4 - Kingly Imps Caught:2Money Earned: 4.5-5m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n64jive Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 also, skirt provides more protection then helm, so you would think that skirt would be worth more then helm(or maybe some people would think)... So instead of asking questions, people would just be like ok, i'll sell the skirt, buy a helm and make a little cash. those are my thoughts.

Helm is the most expensive piece because you drop it under normal circumstances when you die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Smither Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 i fell for it, bad thing was some guys name like liiiliili so that was hard to remember and didnt report in time. little basterd got my fury, so i went to cw to vent my idioticy. reason i feel for it. it sounding like a good deal but the moment he/I clicked accept the helm changed to a skirt almost lightspeed. :shock: Well the lightspeed thing is people can hook up a second mouse with another port PS2 or USB and click both at same time prly helm 1 a second earlier which makes the trade alot trickier and the swap fast or in world 2 it lags so the animation is slow and won't show every detail. lol The funniest thing is when a scammer accpets before you do :lol: I sit there and think wow what a dang idoit :lol: Click for My Blog670th to 99 Smithing July 21st, 07 |743rd to 99 Mining November 29th, 07 | 649th to 99 Runecrafting May 18th, 08 | 29,050th to 99 Defence October 20th, 08 | 20,700th to 99 Magic November 8, 08 | 47,938th to 99 Attack December 19, 08 | 37,829th to 99 Hitpoints December 24, 08 | 68,604th to 99 Strength February 4, 09 | 27,983rd to 99 Range February 9, 09 | 9,725th to 99 Prayer June 8, 09 | 6,620th to 99 Slayer December, 12 09 | 4,075th to 99 Summoning December, 28 09 | 3,551th to 99 Herblore February 24, 10 | 3,192th to 99 Dungeoneering November 11, 10 | 146,600th to 99 Cooking December 29th, 10 | 11,333rd to 99 Construction June 7th, 11 | 16,648th to 99 Farming August 1st, 11 | 19,993th to 99 Crafting August 2nd, 11 | 89,739th to 99 Woodcutting Janurary 1st, 12 | 55,424th to 99 Fishing May 9th, 12| 60,648th to 99 Firemaking May 12th, 12 | 16666th to 99 Agility May 17th, 2012 | 24476th to 99 Hunter June 1st, 2012 | 57,881st to 99 Fletching June 1st, 2012 | All 99s June 1st, 2012 | 3183th to 120 Dungeoneering July 24th, 2012 | 2341st to 2496 Total level July 24th, 2012 | Completionist Cape July 24th, 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDude Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I believe how it works is people look at the second trade screen and see the word "Veracs" four times, and thus assume its full Verac. Just remember never to assume though. Yep, that's what I did when I fell for this :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkjab Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Someone tried the black skirt scam on me. It's rather annoying because you can't really notice the difference when they are noted, so thank god for 2nd trade screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wachtwoord Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Yes, I am always leery of people with bizarre, gibberish names as well as lower levels. If I see a level 60 with a name like 0 0 00o0o 0 or lillilillil selling something, I can almost assume he is scamming. Me too, so when I bought full guthan and someone like that tried to sell it to me, I checked the second screen 5 times. The weird thing was, he wasn't even scamming!

PastyGangsta Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I dont care if Im only spending 3k, I trade slowly to make sure I get what I wanted (not too slow mind you, but I actually read stuff fully) I like my money and I dont want it scammed away from me... 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
