@ Stallowned : thank you for the time and effort you put in to start this thread.
Also thanks to everybody who have been contributing to this thread.

I caught the following ppl scamming on Babel ( all in Donwhang ) :

- PotionVender
- Potions
- Taiteo
- crystalK

These are all selling characters. The first two names on the list are one and the same person ( told PotionVender i would report him/her, he/she disappeared and 10 minutes later there was Potions ).

( screenshots available )


Moderators pls sticky this thread.

truthfully i don't htink sending these pictures to admin will do anything.

no matter what game there will always be cheaters and hackers. gm's can't create a perfect utopia you know.

there's no error in stalls or whatever. you just gotta be careful and know what to buy.

Sorry I haven't been updating this in a couple days. I promise I will do it later tonight. I've just been busy with my research paper, and silkroad, and just forgetting about it altogether. If anyone sees me online remind me to update the list, hopefully I won't forget though.

Very much true. But an effort can be made to get rid of these ppl as much as possible and this is one way of doing it.

Simple but effective. It shouldn't be to difficult to do that imo (version 1.034 ? :) ).

I wouldnt call that a scam, but its funny. If it arrows description dont say anything about 3x damage, then its not really gonna deal 3x that damage.

Well damn I finally updated everything, took about an hour or so because the font was messing up badly and I had to figure out what was wrong, but I finally got it :)
Big thanks to everyone who contributed to the list :)

I plan on adding a whole guide on how to avoid getting scammed, looking out for scammers, common scams, etc... But knowing how long I procrastinated to update this, who knows how long it will take for me to write this up. If anyone is willing to do this for me I would greatly appreciate it. Send me a pm that you will do it before you start so that I don't start doing it myself and by the time I'm done someone else has already done one :banghead:

Athens: xFrEeDoMx of the guild Fallen_Heros was caught botting at x3561 y1277

I noticed she was picking up object REALLY quickly, abut she only moved towards the kill (she was using a bow) if there was a drop, otherwise she moved on. That got me curious. I asked if she was a botter in the main chat, I whispered to her, I tried to make an exchange with her and finally I started attacking and killstealing everything she targeted. She said nothing while I did it for five minutes. Clearly a bot, or a very, VERY patient person.

Another shop character on Aege, selling only 1 Arrow for 10 K: "lampiunz".
Well, the title of the shop is "ARROW 1 UNIT = 10.000 GOLD", so it's not clear if it's "really" scam, but I'd say so since it can be misunderstood VERY easily. I see this character very often, standing around in Jangan near the blacksmith.

Athens: caught another botter, Novanex, also from the guild Fallen_Heros.

Is it worth reporting to Joymax even if I don't have videos?

if i sell pots for a bit higher price.. am I a scammer?

let's say i sell 50 Large Pots in dong for 30k = 20k at hotan +5k teleport to hotan. 5k teleport back to dong..

isn't that legitamite?

i do see people buying them .. i would too if i was theiving or something and i got killed and needed pots fast ...

............maybe i should stop selling these pots..

the question is really.. what is scamming?

in my opinion. Scamming is when the buyer is at a serious disadvantage of a trade, or if the buyer is seriously taken advantage of.. like 1 arrow for 100k. no one wants 1 arrow for 100k. False advertisements are considered to be scams..

any disagreements?


Read they stall title , If it say for example 1000 hp bag (almost scammer do this) them they just put 1 pot in one bag and that is scam
