    How to: Not get scammed.

    Hey a couple days ago I was a scammer now i quit. Anyway I mad this guide to protect some of you out there from scammers from both mmowned community (yes it happens many leechers scam people from mmowned or even mmowned members not realising it.
    Ok so scam prevention.

    Buying:
    -ALways look ingame and buy from people with rep and verified paypal.
    -Never send money to a canadian paypal
    -Always call the person before buying
    -Always save your chat conversation for the jackals to investigate ( )
    -Never send the money before you look at it ingame.
    -Always ask for email change AND cd keys or VALID ID
    -NEVER fall for stupid excuses.

    Selling:
    -Always verify that the person is verified with paypal and has rep.
    -NEVER give username and pass for the person to 'try'the account.
    -Always give a fake last name and say that you mispelled it after you withdraw the money.
    -Always change email after 5hours of the trade so you can have time to get the money.
    -Never trust someone with a canadian paypal.
    -ALways talk to someone on the phone.

    Trading:
    -Always talk on the phone.
    -Never start trading any information before you aare 100% sure.
    -Most of the time what I do is setup an account and we both team view each other and press transfer the main character to the new account in the same time.
    -Always trade with people with rep.
    -Never give sqa before the email change.
    -ALways give a fake last name until you transfered the character to a new account.


    this is the basics hope it helps someone feel free to add what you think is safer.

    golden rule:
    NEVER TRUST SOMEONE THAT SAYS: HI,SIR
