Potential Trade Scam

This is similar to the Ecto and Mursaat Token thing, these look very similar at a glance



The Scale item item is on the left, the amulet is on the right.

I know 99.9% of players mouse over the item in the trade screen, but I am just posting this just in case.

Before you ask, no, I didn't have this done to me

Thx for the heads up, but I was just wondering what is the amulet of the mists, I have seen ppl trying to sell them.

Winters

amulet is an item you get at the end of factions, you can then talk to a couple of NPCs and exchange them for some nifty greens (for 'free' no less) each character is allowed 1 amulet, and it seems some people have decided to sell them

the npc's are located in the divine path explorable area after defeating shiro.

Thanks for the wisdom.

nice catch

I had that quest before but i needed inventory space so i abandoned it and deleted the shimering scale necklace...what quest was it again?

Trying to get more of them so you can make a hit?

nice thanks mater

Thanks for the tip I wish ANet didn't make rare items look like non-are items..

/runs off to check the amulet i just bought

thanks for the heads up

What do you mean, necklace or drops?

I'm pretty sure it was a luxon quest, and i need more factions

Thanks for the heads up!

Someone tried this on me last week "WTS Amulet that gets you greens at end of game 15k OMG CHEAP" ..

Well spotted, I've posted this on my forum and i'll see if its on TGH and post it there aswell...

Nice one

I believe anyone who gets scammed deserves it, stupidity should be a crime and at least this way they pay.

Whether they deserve it or not, it is still good to point out.

Someone tried doing this to me lmao...they put in fake one and I said thats nor mists genious and hes like oh sorry so he puts real amulet in and I put in 50k so he changes it and accepts so I just left made me laugh

good call.

there is also a scam where people are selling x-mas presents for 10k and saying they are the1 yr presents---look outfor that one too

Birthday presents have blueish box while Christmas presents have a green one
