It's storytime!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Righto, so I'm selling my loot from killing fire giants in Seers bank, world 2. A load of people come through all following a player

 

 

 

"Dropparty. I'm quitting rs!!!!" She was saying. I followed her. There was about 30-40 people following along with me. "Everyone put Accept Aid on, and we'll group tele to the fishing guild" she said. She did a lunar magic group tele to the fishing guild. Outside the fishing guid she dropped a few items..Noted unids, a few runes etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then she said "After the next tele, the first person to trade me gets my Red phat, the 2nd gets my whip"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OMG I thought, this could be my chance :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The next teleport was a lunar magic group tele to Ice plateau (lvl 50ish wild).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

About half of the people there teled along with her. Thankfully I didn't :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I recieved frantic PMs from the people who teled, one person lost his cannon and 11k c balls, another a big pile of cash.. etc

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The sad thing was how believable it all was. The "fake" drop party was so convincing, and everyone was so hyped up about the chance of getting a red phat. I was pretty darn close to teleing myself, but I managed to see through it intime :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is what I would have lost:

About 5M in items :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would you or would you not have fallen for this scam?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Talking to someone after it, they showed my 50M of items and cash that they would have lost.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: She did it a second time, I banked everything and got some screenies. NOTE: Hardly anyone was teleported, thanks to Hell King619's efforts, so the pics are nowhere near as bad as what the first time would have been like.

If there was a Tele other spell on me, i would double check it before i click on yes. Good thing you checked first.

Yup, I did check :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was close though... I pressed yes to the first one, then there was a warning saying "This is about to tele you into deep wilderness, are you sure?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That one got me :P

Wow, that is a pretty elaborate scam.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You know, if these scammers used half of their imagination in actual skill development... they'd make waaaay more money that way!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh well, good job avoiding being another victim.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wrong, most intelligent smart scammerse like these probably can make more money scamming, but guess who has a higher risk of getting banned!!?!?!

I don't see how they can get banned. She said that she was going to do a group tele, she did. It ended up in the wild and they killed everyone. That's what happens in the wild.

That's exactly right. Most of the people there were merchanters from seers/catherby bank, so they would have been dying to get their hands on the phat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Oops double post

IT is a bad day if scammers are getting smarter.

I will shoot down any one with my bitting wit, and sarcasm!

What POSSIBLE reason would someone have to make a fake like that?Does he profit from faking a picture like that? Does it help him at all?Jesus Christ, stop being so suspicious. This is Tip.it for God's sake, not RuneHQ. -_-

lol that was a good read, although anyone who trades for a red phat must have something wrong with them for not knowing if it's too good to be true, IT IS!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

although i don't really think you should be posting scams... could give people ideas. Ye i know it's "techniqually" not a scam but it's still not nice... :shame:
