I got scammed just now. There was a guy selling 9 att wg, and i traded him. We offered and eventually agreed on me giving him:1m, 60% cape dex, 10% glove att, red hearted earrings, a maple kandiva and a 6 att wg. Then he said retrade and i did. Then he said retrade again and so i did again. This time i accepted and so did he. I was so frustrated that i didnt check the wg, it looked the same but it was just a dex wg. Why do people scam in a GAME? His IGN is RipAss. Please defame him or ks him if you see him!

Hey dude, I have had the same problems. All i can say is that sucks, and if a deal almost seams too good to be true, then there is some scam, or other idea involved. Any one that tries to do that trade thing and says retrade for no reason at all is definately up to something. Its allot like the B> Steelys 11mil scam..when they put up 11mil then retrade allot of times, and finally you think your gonna get 11 mil but when you press trade you just sold your steelys for 1mil. all i can say is sorry bout that and maybe you now know that there are some punks in maple that are only there to mess up other peoples lives. lol

I wasn't too dumb, I checked twice and he said he had to go or he'll cancel so I traded him quickly.

Dakoda said: "I wasn't too dumb, I checked twice and he said he had to go or he'll cancel so I traded him quickly." Yeah, and once he said "hurry, I have to go" and scams or doesn't scam, he's still there spamming his butt off trying to find more victims.

Agreed. That's why I always take my time.

Never accept a retrade. Ever. It's common sense. I learned after the first people in MS tried to "retrade" me, I canceled, defamed, and ignored. =)
