Hes trying to scam someone for 200k...

Lets say it takes him 1 day to get the scam to work once. He just wasted all that time for 200k, when he could of been grinding and earning alot more money and xp also. Logically hes wasting so much time.

Report him? Report him for what? There is nothing at all illegal about scamming. He isnt asking for your account info, impersonating a GM, exploiting a bug, etc. Just like protecting your info is your responsibility, so too is being smart enough to see through scams like this.

True.

But trying to scam somebody with Silk is taking it a little too far, don't you think?

Maybe it's me thinking, "This guy should be reported for trying something THAT stupid."

With that said,

Knowledge is power!!
Buyer beware!!
