So yea today i thought i would buy myself a plvl. I went to Penons, joined a party. PAID 250k. I waited a few seconds, the plvler sets up a stall. And she said...

I called her a noob because i was kinda mad. And then i screenshooted and wanted to share :)

Post your scammed screenshot if you have any :)

I have one question though, are we allowed to post these?

Thats why you should grind on ur own, or at least get a plvl pt from a friend and not some random turk or whatever.. -.-

What part is the scam? You pay and then he levels you. Seems pretty normal too me.
Oh yeah, and level yourself and dont be lazy. Power leveling ruined this game (Among other things).

I don't see any lvling. The plvler is setting up a stall and asking him to buy the stuff or else he'd get banned.

Oh, i misread it. Thought you said you joined and she asked you to pay. Anyhow, you should still level yourself. The exp you get is the same as you would get for about an hours extra hard work, and you get to keep your gold.

Unfortunately, yes and way too much. But this scam is funny, it's like a thread. "YOu buy this stuff, or i'll kill you" sort of thing.

You can also go to a powerlvl party, pay for one hour, wait untill someone else joins who is still in town & when the new party members gets to your powerlvler you exchange him, if he's stupid enough he will pay.
