Maybe if Chris Wilson acts as arbiter between the trading parties ? Maybe that would help ? I mean people could just use their eyes, but I agree that might be too much to ask for. We play computer games because we want to relax and recover from our hard working days. I should not need to pay attention to anything when playing PoE. I bought a currency tab back then least they could do is provide a proper trade broker that I can trust with my business.

What you say is true about the reason some play video games. It's the reason I play. On the other hand, anytime you interact with other humans you MUST pay attention, whether it is in a video game or in real life, because there are a lot of people who don't deserve the right to call themselves human. Consider this a life lesson, but not a hard life lesson because what you lost are pixels in a video game. A little cynicism can protect you from the filth of the earth, which people who take advantage of others trust are. Be mad for a week if you have to but move and learn from this. Be glad it only happened in a video game and someone didn't take your credit card, car, house or something that you REALLY value. Relax like you want to while enjoying the video game, but watch your back next time. The predators are watching you and waiting for you to let your guard down again (a little melodramatic, I know).

use your eyes next time :)

i hope they work on real issues before this non-issue.

once again
getting scammed is no ones fault but yours
the game literally forces you to look at the item before accepting

you and only you are responsible for getting scammed

pay attention or stfu

Here's a real scam!...


Today i messaged a bulk seller to buy 2100 perandus coins, just to buy a worthless item for challenge completion. Went to sellers hideout and they went to my hideout, took me a second to click what had happened!
Went back to my hideout and the guy was in my map ( probably just realising how bad the item cadiro was selling is)... i didn't even have time to leave party etc before he got in there.


Perhaps an update of the trade system is needed if this can happen!

You can make it where people can't join your hideout, something you should probably do for a perandus trade
