I wanted a rune, found one for trade, commented on his post BIN, messaged him with what game i was in. He messaged me with his game, then replied to my messaged to come to his game. So i switched servers and went to his game. We introduced ourselves and he starts flappin his mouth about jsp, fg and trade in game. I went to open trade with him and after a minute, he never opened trade and left game. He then sends me a message on jsp that he crashed and was coming back. This started giving me doubts about the guy. we finally got a trade window opened, he puts the rune in the window, I clicked accept and the window closes. I always open my inventory up to make sure i got the item and its what i wanted. No item to be seen, then he starts wanting his payment and accusing me of trying to scam him and that all of this was being recorded in video.
As you can see in my signature. it states that "You go first on high price trades", since i never received the item, I wasn't paying him. This all brought back up memories about this old scam from years ago. So I tried to reopen the trade window a few more times but he would never open his side, after a few minutes of him accusing me of being a scammer and that i will get banned from jsp for this. I left the game and went look for another rune for sale. Found one, made contact, went ingame, he dropped the rune and i picked it up, Had it in my inventory and it was what i wanted. I went to jsp and paid the guy the agreed price.
About 10 minutes later, I saw a post in the Scammer Area with my name. He blabbed a bunch of hot spew in there. I tried to reply and defend myself but couldn't. Then he sends me a message saying it was a big mistake, that he found the rune still in his inventory. Blah blah blah. He went back to his post and retracted his comment about calling me a scammer.
Fellas, beware those old scams are still out there and people are still trying to pull them over on people. Be good, Be kind and game hard.
