Twice today I have nearly been scammed, one time some guy offered 42c for a rare, took a sack out and then later today someone offered a petal, and then put in a grass patch. Watch out for these, luckily I didn't get scammed but always hover over the furniture to make sure!
True. These scams are new and exciting.

This happened to me before but I double checked before I confirmed and managed to cancel the trade.

Always check the trade screen people.
This hasn't happened to me, and I hope it won't either.
I wouldn't agree with new or exciting.. they've both been around for quite a while but i think people are trying harder to do it now, aha. :P

The same thing happened to me but I'm not a noob who will confirm the trade. So I insult him as much as I like, LOL.

It aint really scamming in all fairness, but yes just watch out, the better ones who will get you are gonna be distracting you someway anyway so just only concentrate on trades if needs be, I'm sure skamanfa knows why I know a lot about qt'ing xx

Yup, similar to the "quick click" method.
Recently, The Treasure patch has been at the attention of scammers, as the hay looks surprisingly similar, so watch out. :)

I remember when people used to switch red plastic chairs for thrones. I feel bad for anyone who has fallen or falls for this.

When selling my rares i've come across alot of people coming into my room and offering gb's for items worth much less. when i go to trade with them, they put in lots of other junk and say "it's because you're such a nice person." They take the gb out at the last minute, but I always cancel before it confirms..
Oftern after the trade is happening they chant this statement:
"here you do know the progative of satan is the obonic symbol of the lay loo low & he was succu"
i guess its so you dont look at the trade and you read that insted.
idk im getting more scammers than legit buyers lately
couple of days ago i kinda got caught up in this. this dude offered me a gb so i traded, he put in the gb in and loads of other furni. The thing is, he must not of realised and put a totem planet in.. I came out on top :-)
