Today I got scammed.
I've known this dude for like a year now (before I started playing SRO) today I need to transfer a few things, and he completely ripped me off!
How can somebody be so low and cheap!

Dont be a noob and post here.

They are virtual items.

If they mean so much to you, i suggest you go outside sometime today.

Consider yourself lucky you didnt loose too much. That can be made back in a few weeks of grinding.

I'm sorry to hear that. I don't know how people can bring themselve to do something as selfish as that, scamming a friend

However, not all people are like that. I personally have never been scammed before even though many people got access to my account with full sosuns and my guild storage with a bazillion gold and sosun garm/armor/prot set. But I know how it would feel like if someone I know would get greedy over some virtual items.

Look at his sig, hes lvl 2x. I have no doubt in my mind that they were low lvl sox. If they were high lvl he wouldnt of mentioned the elixers as they would of bared no loss to him. Also i re rolled on greece, i started a new server to play with a good mate of mine. I have been semi active and at lvl 30 i have 3m, a wolf, and a female gdf. Geez making money isnt hard! If i can do that in 2 semi active weeks you can get 5m in 3 months of grinding. Note that i started on greece with 150k.

And @ topic starter, go out and grind 500k. Use that to buy and re sell items. With about a week of work and if you know what you are doing you should have about 15 or so mill. Alternatively you could grind for a week and use the alchemy ingredients you get to make elements, preferably grind on something that supplies wind2. Then go and sell those elements and then use the profit to buy and re sell stuff.

Making money isnt hard. Peoples inability to spend some hard time to re-cooperate what they have lost defies me.

All my virtual items (20+ billion gold & 100+ Sosuns) that I got for nothing definitely worth a whole lot more than $300. Heck, people offered to western union me $15,000+ for my account but I politely declined every offer.

Yes, but if they got greedy and looted your storage, you could just hack them all back though. No big loss there lol...

Thank you for your concern. I like to believe in the good in human nature and not have to worry all the time thinking if someone is going to be overcome by greed and scam. So far, my intuition has never been wrong and I do hope it will remain so. I do like to give other people a chance to experience what it's like to play on a good character.

Yes, there are many posts here about people that get scammed from people they thought they trust, but do people post here everytime a person is honest?

yes i was thinking about that too before, they know there are rich people on the forums and try to get some stuff from them. i think its actually the people who dont open topics when they get hax0red/scammed who deserve the items/money
