August 16, 200718 yr The scam wouldn't have taken place if the scammer weren't a greedy pixel hugger. It wouldn't have taken place either if the person being scammed had a triple digit IQ. But I don't think anyone would disagree the scammer is more responsible than the victim.
August 17, 200718 yr A 5 year old is walking in a local park. Some stranger comes up and offers him ice cream if he comes along. The 5 year old follows, is taken into a dark alley, is tied up and gagged, thrown in the back on a vehicle, taken to a lake in the middle of the night, is raped, murdered, and thrown in the lake. Who is to blame, the 5 year old or the stranger? Add parents telling the kid not to go with strangers, and various school-activities about not going with strangers to the scene. Now whos to blame? For me, its the idiotic person who fell for it. Sure if it's the first time you got scammed its ok. I've gotten scammed once and learned my lesson. I never got scammed again. If you get scamed 2, 3, or even 14 times then you are the one to blame. "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." -Unknown Need help or advise? Have a question? Just PM me through Runescape or Tip.it. :)
August 17, 200718 yr I believe it is the scammees fault. Most of these scams are pretty lame, and are easily avoidable. :boohoo: Barrows Runs: ~75Days Spent Barrowing: 3Barrows Drops: Verac Skirt, Guthan Helm, Karil Coif, Ahrim Robetop, Ahrim Hood, Guthan Spear, Ahrim Skirt
August 17, 200718 yr Neither. They are both to blame. The scammer shouldn't be scamming people, and the other person should learn to think. "In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

Who is to blame, the 5 year old or the stranger? If you made it so the 5 year old was 13+ and it was against the law to accept ice cream from strangers, which is basically how it is with JAGeX and passwords, then who would be to blame?

August 17, 200718 yr there's a wise old proverb that says "Fool me once, shame on you, Fool me twice, shame on me." If your dumb enough to not smarten up after the first time you are scammed, then... Shame on you :?

August 18, 200718 yr The scammer is at fault. :shame: A lot of players are kids who don't have much sense or they are new so they are not familiar with everything yet. The Runescape Wilderness - Meili's Blog
August 18, 200718 yr The scammer is at fault. :shame: A lot of players are kids who don't have much sense or they are new so they are not familiar with everything yet. But is the age minimum not 13 years ? Where i'm from 13 yr olds aren't dumb .. but maybe thats just where I'm from ehhehehe :D
August 18, 200718 yr the scammer, because the kid is not the one who caused the scam. If the scammer had not been there, the scam would have not taken place. The kids are supposed to be 13, but since there is nothing preventing them from lying, it isn't always that way. Click for mah Blog!- I'm not sure why you would though because i never update it Achieved 99 Thieving 3/10/07-992nd to it
August 18, 200718 yr the scammer, because the kid is not the one who caused the scam. If the scammer had not been there, the scam would have not taken place. again i disagree. when a scam takes place the socalled "victim" is given two choices.. "yes" or "no". its up to him to decide. I've yet to hear of a scam where the victim was forced into it.

Like changing the amount of cash in the trade screen, replacing items, etc. It's how most ppl lose their santas and stuff. But you do have a point. Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either.

I will further prove my point by saying, that if you play the game the way its meant to be played, you will notice there is a box where u can see exactly what u are trading, failure to look at that box is ur own fault, and the consequences thereof. Changing the amount of cash in trade screen and replacing items can barely be called a scam. More like a check-up to see if "victim" is brain-dead or not.
