Beware of Scams!

Although an old screenshot, this person is still up and about.

What is the scam? Well the Tier 3 Scroll production recipe's.

Firstly, this person YouBuyISell is claiming to be selling a Tier 3 Defense Scroll recipe. When infact, he/she/it is selling a Tier 3 Magic Defense Recipe.



I walk by in Uruga at present day (1 hour ago), and I come across shops selling Tier 3 production scroll recipes for 200s or so.

Dont be fooled! Some of these recipes can be purchased from the Item Merchant Nina in Elderine! (For fame of course)

Wrong, not a scam oddly enough, the magic def and regular shield have the same tile, look at the description, the magdef one says it teaches magdef in the description too



this is what i am talking about SAME title, different description. the one being sold in angel's post is NOT the magic defense scroll production skill =/

How is that not a scam? It clearly says MagicDEF while he is advertising it for a Defense scroll. The description may be the same but the title is different...

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.
