meili Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 A lot of people seem to go to monastery with rares on, they seem to think they will be safe since it is only level 1 or 2 but sometimes they die. :P What you posted was a type of lure/scam.

Lord_Muijs Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 it wasnt a scam, he never told you to go into the wilderniss, he only asked a question. very clever lure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassfreak Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Ok, I don't really understand how people don't see this as a blatant scam the second he wants you to enter the wilderness... That immediately should set off every single alarm in your head that this isn't a legit. deal. I suppose people need to be warned about this but I think anyone with a single ounce of common sense should see this for what it is. Just because a scam lacks intricacy and is easy to thwart doesn't make it any less of a scam.. it's misleading someone to attempt to take their items from them.

lordrex Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 happened today i was buying a phat together with my friend(lvl 107) looking for a yellow 1 they asked my friend to trade in edge wild 1 for 3 mask sets and 2.7 mill (very cheap for a yellow phat) once he walked into wild1 another lvl 107 ice barraged him. , but who would take rares into wild the first place its kinda obvious that they want to get ur money rsname: lord rex.december 2011: ranked 107th best f2p playermarch 2012 became member.

blusttoy Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I wonder what would happen to the scam or luring if you said that you actually don't know any other place to recharge your prayer other than at Varrock. Would the guy still sell you the Easter Egg or accidentally say, "OMG, you're so dumb. Never heard of the Monastery?" * * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oy_the_Great Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I could tell he knew his stuff about runescape already. Then he asked me a perculiar question. It was "Can you show me where to charge my prayer" Don't you find it a little awkward that a pro player (or at least an old school player) needs to know where the temple is? Even noobs know that stuff. That only would alarm anyone with more than two braincells ;) Bill Hicks[/url]":dhj2kan9]Since the one thing we can say about fundamental matter is, that it is vibrating. And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such.

Pur304 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 You can't run because you are being frozen by the Ice spell they cast. You can't protect your cash, because you never keep cash when you die. Also on RSC (like someone has prevously mentioned) a classic example of this kind of lurer has posted and boasted about his luring. He has made MILLIONS in 2 days. He's proud and you can tell, you only need to look at his signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
