Dont You Hate Scammers?

I have just been scammed for the first time today.....bought a +15 while health is (below) 50 feathered longbow instead of a +15 while health is above 50 for 30k. I told a quick look and didnt see the "below". Anyways, the guy's ign is ------. Why can't people be more truthful? Its thanksgiving, too. Well, i guess its thanksgiving for the scammer instead of me. I'm not too mad about it because 30k is an easy earn for me. I just wanna reach out to you guys and be careful of scammers. Btw...how can u report scammers?

Heh, I once tried to sell a gold bow with below 50 bonus instead of above 50. I actually didn't realize it. Nobody answered my WTS ads and I noticed it later, so I stopped trying. Maybe the guy just made a mistake and it was compounded by your mistake?

Report scammers to Anet.

And posting names is against forum policy, by the way

So ArenaNet is going to ban this guy because furious fellblade didnt pay attention to the transaction?

I am not defending this guy but it sounds more like miscommunication than deception. The only remedy is to pay more attention when trading with other people. Just pretend that the other guy has intent of scamming you whether or not he does.

That is just common sense you use in life and in a game.

Send a request to http://support.guildwars.com to report the scammer.

As it is against the rules of this forum to post any names in a poor light, the name must be removed.
