-Keeping your account safe-

The main thing to keep your account safe is to NEVER give out your password over MSN,Email or any
chat room etc, Even though JaGeX block your pass in-game never say it out loud as there could be an
error with the filter.

-Fake sites-
There are many fake sites around the internet, only ever enter your password on www.Runescape.com
many sites do look real but are always fake, if using forums never use your same password as your
Runscape one.
-'Hacking Runescape'-
There is no way to hack Runescape, if anyone claims this they are trying to make you download a virus,
or generally scam your password
ie; Hey dude, i know how to hack Runescape just give me your rs-name and ill get u 1000m - never believe
this,these scams are simple.
-Fake site name examples-
www.rs3-beta.com/tk/net/co.uk - There is no RS3 out yet, if it comes out JaGeX will announce it and it
will be accessible by the official website.
www.hackrunescape.com - There is NO way to hack Runescape, do not download things from this site as
it could include Trojans, Worms or any other viruses.
NONE of these sites are real at this time

-Banned account-
It's going to be quite hard to get your account unbanned, pm me and i WILL get a last chance appeal
that will definitely work, i DO NOT need to know your password i will simply give you an appeal,
People I've got unbanned are-
Myself
Scriptermone
Skiller

My appeals are known to work perfectly but i am not responsible if they do not work,
The appeals I use are from a site i cannot specify, do not discuss them on the forums,
the reason i do this is that IF they are said on forums JaGeX will stop these sort of appeals working.

-Real Life Trading-
I would mainly say don't do it, if you do it make sure you duel it over and no other way,
I have another way but im not willing to say it unless through pm.
-Staying safe from item scammers-
Whenever you trade someone ALWAYS check the second screen, many things can be switched.
I have been scammed before but ive made it back on top
Heres a few precautions you should take before accepting a trade.
That you haven't offered to much (any normal person would accept swiftly)
Watch out for item switches, example's of these are
Santa hat > 'fez'
100k > 1004 (in-game the 4 looks like a K)
Don't use auto sellers, i previously used one and lost about 1mil from it offering too much.
and ALWAYS check the second trade screen
-FAQ-
Q-How do i report a site to JaGeX
A-You do not report the website to JaGeX as of the moment there is no way that i know of.

Q-Can i have a list of rare items so i cant get scammed?
A-I will list this at the end of the guide.

Q-If i get scammed what can i do?
A-You can only report the person, if you cannot find his name click 'trade' on the bottom part of the
screen, sadly your items will never be returned (this is for Item and Password scamming)

Q-Is begging for money scamming?
A-No,it may not work though.

Q-How do i report someone for scamming?
A-Click 'report abuse' on your Runescape screen enter the name of the scammer, and click the rule
he has broke.
