retract
There was no need to retract this. Some users may be puzzled why things happen a certain way and quite a few users on this site do follow this.
It's kind of used as your own personal anti-virus, run it when you want. If it looks fishy, you don't have to go thru with the trade (even if it's agreed upon - scams only occur when fg/items change hands - you can 100% walk away from a trade up until you drop item or send fg).
That being said, while it's not enforced by staff. It is your best protection (outside of using a mediator) from getting scammed as we have no other metrics to use while trading aside from these that are public/attached to each account (unless you want to go through a users recent post history to vet them to trade an amn rune or whatever

)
Gl, happy trading!
