Known ways to be scammed on d2jsp, some tips to prevent them:
  • Be sure that the Forum Gold has been sent, you don't have to hurry.
  • If the user wants to trade fast or without a Mediator, don't attempt the trade. If you have patience you will never be scammed.
  • Make sure that the person in game is the one who PMed you.
  • Don't trade items from a realm to another or from a core to another without using a Mediator, you will get scammed.
  • Never trust in PMs like: "My friend xxx is waiting for you in game xx1/x". Report these users to a Moderator as soon as possible.
  • Never give First because you have: Less posts, Lower join date, Lower Vouchs, Lower FG. If you are Not Rated and the other user is Not Rated, you are equal.
  • Never trade alone if you feel unsure and especially with huge ammount of FG, use a Mediator.
  • Never trade if someone whisps you on D2, he can be anyone.

  • Make sure that the item you are buying Unid is the correct one.
  • "Drop Games" are scam games, they use a hack called "Grab It".

  • Be careful with new friends, some of them only try to steal your items
  • Never buy an account, they can recover their password.
