odd scammer story

[bob7926]

let me first say, i did take pics but only ended up with the last one as i forgot to save them before taking another :oops: so unfortunately i dont have pics, you'll just have to believe me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

well, i was in fally park alching while i looking around at who was selling and who was buying(phats). I mention that im selling(colors are irrelevant as they dont relate to the story) and when my message appeared, someone asked to add them and i did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this person asked if i could help him with tears of guthix and for my help he would pay 300k. i usually help when asked and in this case i agreed and off we went. when we got down passed draynor, i knew it was the swamp cave scam and mentioned that i am not going down there. he gave me a lantern anda duel ring(for tele) as well as a mirror shield(so when i died, i would drop what i had and keep that because all i had were nats, money, and yew bows). we finally get to the jumping rock where on the other side you need to re-light your lantern or you will die. needless to say, i died..but not in anger, i died laughing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you see, back in fally, i did say i was selling phats(which i do/am) but i do not carry them on me until i am certain i have a trade. for reasons such as these or if i am killed by a random or something. all i had on me was roughly 1k yew longs, 700 nats, and 45k(i started with 1100 longs, but bought only 750 nats as thats the only seller i could find).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so when the scammer found a worthless pile of a measley 800k or so, he wasnt very happy. I messaged saying something like "enjoy the 800k, hope that was worth you wasting your time" and he responded with "lol you got my hopes up, thought you were carrying the phats"..i went on to say i knew about the scam and for him to meet me in draynor because he did not believe i have what i say i have. after showing him the crown shape pieces of paper he said something about the pile i dropped and i responded with "i could care less about the worth of the items, i care more about the exp" this is when he said something like "well, i dont care for this stuff either, want the stuff back?" of course i said yes, and we met in fally where it all started and he gave me back the stuff i dropped(i also gave him his mirror shield back).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

after it was all said and done, i said thanks and good luck..and he asked "would you like to help me?" i replied with a simple "no..im an honest player" and that was the end of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what is odd about this story you ask? well..the reason i posted it is because i knew it was a scam and couldnt help but laugh at the fact this guy was wasting 5 minutes over just 800k. and i was happy to get my items i lost back so i could continue with the exp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

im sorry i was not thinking ckearly and did not save the pics, should his ever happen again..i'll remeber to save befire taking another :P

Oh, they ONLY got 800k. Good thing it wasn't a decent about of money or anything. Geez, I wish I was rich enough to shrug off losing 800k like it was pocket change.

i didnt lose it, i got it back.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and as i said, i dont care about the money i could of lost..i care more about the exp. the yews brought me up a mage level.
