Okay thought i'd help. This worked for me once. Sold my ilbi for 33m lol. Basically when you see them buying a GFA, Steely, ilbi, WG something you have that is common in the FM and you see a scammer buying it. When you trade them the first time, be ready. Say they buying steelys for 22m. They usually put up 22.222.222m to fool you and then retrade and put 2.222.222m so basically. First trade just put your say, steely and press trade and have the OK ready. When they put up their money, if you see that extra digit. Press trade RIGHT away. You must be fast for this tho. Doesn't work all the time. Another way is selling your GFA or CFA for a random 60% scroll. Hope this somewhat helped :D

Uhm... Most SMART scammers will have a full USE inventory so that this doesn't happen. When they are ready to scam you, they will take a useless pot or something out of it so that can get your star/scroll/etc.

The smart ones keep full inv's the first time around, then use a single potion to make room for the ilbi the next time. Edit: yeah, guy above me got it.

But these kind of scammers don't push the trade button... they just put up the mesos then cancel then retrade, but they don't click the trade button until the final stage lol. o_o Unless I'm missing something..
