Where do I complain about Scammers like [Removed by Support]

I win... I had a message for you but I deleted it. Feels great.

I'm confused (have not downloaded and played since release so excuse my ignorance), but isn't there some kind of ui/mechanic that makes trades safe in this game?

" Yes. That's why when people get "scammed" like this, it is on them. You have to mouse over the item you are trading for in the trade window before you confirm. The game literally forces you to look at what you are getting. U MAD?

This wasn't even a trade. I guy gave another guy 100c and he's bitching about what happened afterward.

Welcome to Wraeclast where the thieves and liars are celebrated and the innocent villianized.

If you're really interested in protecting others with a warning, calling out one particular 'scammer' isn't very effective.
You should instead warn people not to give away currency to some unknown player in exchange for a service that cannot be guaranteed, unless you are willing to accept the potential loss. And if you want to whine about it via name-and-shame, nobody's stopping you. You just have to do it elsewhere. - here's my sig

" I have refrained from posting much lately, as I feel that the forum has been reduced to rampant foolishness in recent times, but I can't help but respond to this post. GGG does not promote scamming. I have personally taken screen shots, provided evidence, and watched a scammer's 2013 account get banned. You have to A) have credible evidence (hard to deny screen shots) and B) Email support. They don't allow you to 'name and shame', because it would be too easy to character assassinate innocent people (falsely accuse people and ruin their reputations based on potentially unfounded allegtions). Next time you are about to get involved in a potentially risky trade (especially paying for services such as league challenges), either take screenshots and upload them to imgur or learn how to record your gameplay (I have yet to do it, but my new GTX 1080 has software that allows recording of gameplay). Still in the alpha stage, but at least build diversity isn't an issue: https://wolcengame.com/home/ Last edited by JNF#6963 on Apr 28, 2017, 7:55:07 PM

POE is a game you gotta keep that in mind before complaining about being scammed, it's a wild economy, a representation of liberal capitalism at its best / worst / whatever but it's fine cause it's a video game and has no effect on the outside world.
I myself don't play the game to make currency, i just reinvest it immediately in another build, that's all I care about. But there's nothing wrong with playing the game efficiently, this case here is just a guy being a dick of course but i've heard people calling out lowballers and flippers, these are things that happen in the real world and get people locked up for years. Being able to experience this kind of thing in a game is cool, it shows how fickle it all really is, I don't think that should change. A more crazy example of an economy is eve online |
