Do They Ever Stop??

Scammers keep finding new ways to scam people, alone and in a team. Here are today's scammers:

 
These two worked together to scam, and you have to give them some credit on the plan. This is how it went.

CatGoesMoo told anyone who wanted a rare to go to her den.
She pretended to be in LOVE with snowburn's reindeer mask, and said she'd trade a lot.
Snowburn pretended to not want to trade it.
CatGoesMoo said whoever got it from snowburn would get traded the rares because she wanted it.
Someone would trade a good rare, and snowburn would say yes. They'd leave.

Please report them for scamming!! They scammed a cloud and more already, so be on the lookout. Since rare people trade in Aldan, that's where they typically strike.

Jam on! Stay Safe!

'What the what' Scams


So this is one of those, "What the heck just happened" moments.  These happen all the time, like through scams, bad trades, and extra, but sometimes it's just better to spill it to your friends.

This is one Jammer's story of one of these moments:

Fauna Icyclaw: we were all ninja bunnies
Fauna Icyclaw: and umm
Blossom Thecat: Ok.
Blossom Thecat: 0.o....
Fauna Icyclaw: one of the members of the group traded me
Fauna Icyclaw: she traded green nm sword for my worn
Blossom Thecat: Mhm...
Fauna Icyclaw: i accepted
Blossom Thecat: Thats a fair trade :U
Fauna Icyclaw: i asked my buddies if my nm sword was more rare
Fauna Icyclaw: they said it was
Fauna Icyclaw: so i was like (\^D^/)
Fauna Icyclaw: and then all of the sudden,
Fauna Icyclaw: the girl who traded me acted like it was her sister who did the trade
Fauna Icyclaw: she asked if i could trade back... i said no
Blossom Thecat: You don't trade back. You trade, it's done.
Fauna Icyclaw: EXACTLY
Fauna Icyclaw: and all my buddies got mad at me
Fauna Icyclaw: the person who traded me had a camera icon
Fauna Icyclaw: i wasnt even her buddy, and it showed
Blossom Thecat: Oh.... O_O
Fauna Icyclaw: she was part of the camera crew
Blossom Thecat: She's part of the daily explorer team..
Fauna Icyclaw: I KNOW...
Fauna Icyclaw: how does she even MANAGE to do that!?
Fauna Icyclaw: so she said that she CAN BAN ME
Blossom Thecat: She can. O_O
Fauna Icyclaw: I believed that because after all, shes part of the daily explorer

So first off, that'd just plain be scary, and second, this kind of scam of saying, "I didn't mean to trade that" happens all the time! That and, "oh, could we trade back?" and never put the item on trade so if you do you end up trading it back for super bad items. It's just all around wrong and a little sick that some people find entertainment scamming little kids of their games they play and actually worked for and usually making them cry. In real. Because it feels terrible, like you've just been ripped out and they're laughing in your face. That kind of thing is pretty hard to forgive. I just don't understand why scammers bother.

Jam on!
