Although this is not a full scam itself, it's a good thing you can do. Scamming is a psychology game ( no, phishing doesn't count ) and this method can help, depending on the plan you have.

On my final bid for contributer id like to give out a really really good way to improve your scamming tequniques, Broken english might sound like the dumbest thing you've ever heard of, However its effects are quite extrordinery.
What's broken english?
Broken english is a term given to sentences or just words that are in the english language however not spelled correctly or abriveated, Everyone uses broken english, even americans/english people. Ever said "pls" That is a form of broken english. However im going to tell you how to use it to your advantage in your scams. Heres a small example of a broken english sentence.
"pls gold for mount" - Broken english
Please may i have some gold for a mount. - "proper english"
What can this be used for?
Broken english can be used in many ways while scamming, the main way i use it is to show "dumbness" during trades, When people are talking to me, i randomly cut words from sentences to make it look as if im young or forigen, Depending on what scam your doing and who your talking to i vary the manner in whitch i use broken english. Let me point you to 2 threads where i have posted chat logs, read them, and youll get an idea of what broken english is and how i use it.

Now as you can see, im makeing the victim think im stupid, and couldnt be capeable of pulling off a sneaky scam. Also, They will give me more time to do things, an example is when someone asks you to change there e-mail to yours. Id put somthing like.
Do i have to phone blizzard for this?
That one sentence will make the victim sub conciosly think "Hes never traded before" Therefore scamming goes to the back of there mind.
Small guide on how to use broken english.
Ok, If your intrested in this and want further help just PM me, But for the basics, if you have played mmos for years like myself, then you will know what broken english is all about, I mean no offence in this comment, but some people Sweedish/turkish/russian most of them on wow will talk broken english, i mean no offence as lets face it, atleast they can talk 2 languages i can bearly speak my own language whitch is english.
Things like, you need to make clear as soon as you talk to someone on msn that your going to type in broken english, start with somthing like this.
"hi wow account for trade?"
Your showing in that statement your either childish, not polite, or forigen, just the imagine you need while scamming, The key to using broken english is to keep it up, eventually youll get the hang of it.
This might seem like absolute rubbish to most people but if someone understands and this helps them im happy.
Although this is not a full scam itself, it's a good thing you can do. Scamming is a psychology game ( no, phishing doesn't count ) and this method can help, depending on the plan you have.
