So I've been scammed today:
https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=106413612&f=2508 jahs gone, could have been worse, it still is weeks of joyful and painful grind vanished in an instant.
What I was thinking, since I've never been scammed before, is that I could get the fgs back if I had enough evidence.
What I understand now, is that I can only hope to have it back from the scammer, if he wishes to do so.
I had evidence, the scammer got his account locked and banned --> not a problem for him since he created it today, in the sole purpose of scamming people. If it wasn't me would have been someone else.
Another member sent me a previous attempt on him (for 17k fg...)
from the same scammer, he recognized his Battlenet ID, only this was on a different account. This guy doesn't care about getting banned, he's creating new accounts every day.
So here we are: serial scammers getting passion out of players 40+ like me, who relied on the trust here for 10+ years, and no supportive/constructive way of curing it officially, except for a "you should use trading moderators" mantra.
Maybe it's time to rethink this. I'm not sure people will keep on trading here if scams stays at such scale, and is dealt with such cold policy.
A warm thanks to all the members who sent me support messages in thread and pm.
