I dont see how this is a scam, he cannot fit magic def into the description.

Shield=6 letters
Magic=5 letters

True that one should be careful when purchasing such items, but one could say its an attempt to scam, even if it failed...

i dont see how something that can be obtained for 400 fame points to be worth 7.5g

MagDEF is also 6 letters.... why dont use that to not confuse ppl?

coz they WANT to confuse ppl = scam

If it was a legitimate sales attempt he would have labelled it 'MAGDEF' not 'DEF' recipe.

He's banking on people only looking at the description and price, and rushing to buy it on impulse.

Scam -obtaining money by means of deception including fake personalities, fake photos, fake template letters, non-existent addresses and phone numbers, forged documents.

A confidence trick, confidence game, or con for short (also known as a scam) is an attempt to intentionally mislead a person or persons (known as the mark) usually with the goal of financial or other gain.

This person is without a doubt scamming. It may not be a good one for those of us who double check. But, YES, it is an attempt to deceive people. There is plenty of room to say MagDef instead of Shield. They chose not to. It is a scam.
