Please define scamming. IMO, scamming = account stealing and other forms of rs property theft. Which, in turn is quite easy to avoid, with proper vigilance. The usual, don't share accounts, passwords, items. Be sure in trades. Don't download malicious softwares should keep your account safe. In other words DON'T BE STUPID. Practice proper security! Play by the rules, and you'll be safe. Jagex has tried so extreamly hard to help people understand and practice good security. Read the guides and rules, play be them. I don't see why you'll get scammed. Why is this a big issue? Often I've seen people advertising their misfortune and stupidity by the usual screaming of "I've Been HACKED, or KEYLOGGED". Most people play the at home and seldom do they share the account/computer(since the rules say no account sharing), but why people still end up having thier account stolen and worst of all by friends or family. I JUST DON'T GET IT! I don't find it difficult to keep my account safe, but why these victims of scams, find it hard? :-s Are the common folks illiterate of computers and computer security?? #-o #-o Furthermore, please try not to tell everyone publically that you got scammed/hacked or stuff like that. Why burden others with your own problems, are you so weak as to beg for pity from others. Often in life, you dig your own grave. Youself and only youself are to blame for the little misfortunes that befall you. If yourself has been more careful, I believe that you can avoid being scammed. Telling everyone you got scammed is like "telling the world that you are stupid, hence someone stole your stuff, hence the world owes you a living, hence they should fix your problem by donating stuff to you." Well it is ok to tell friends that you got hacked so that they understand your situation and hopefully compassionate enough to help if they can so just to establish an understanding that you are broke for the moment. The world don't owe anyone a living. Everyone must fight for their rights and must work to survive. To live is to fight. Many people are lazy, they want nice things but they don't want to work for it, hence people will try to con you, steal from you, you just have to be on your toes to be safe. So I beg you all. Please have some sense. Many of you are nice people. I've met some of them myself, but that doesn't mean you should borrow your whip to some guy you never met or remember and expect him to return it.For goodness sake, THINK BEFORE YOU ACT! For every action will have a reaction. Ragnar321: Alter ego? So you think it is ok, for people be behave maliciously just coz they are online? You think it is ok to steal and hurt others just as long as you do it online? Online or not, we must strive to be a loving community. Scammers are not role s because they hurt others, wherether they do it online or not it doesn't matter.
