    Default The Petal Patch Scam!

    Today my sister was almost scammed of our Red Marquee. She was offered a petal patch for it, ofcourse she said yes since its similar price, if not more, but at the last minute she noticed he had put in a GRASS PATCH, which she said looked slightly simlar. Luckily she caught it before she confirmed! Slightly strange but, you never know!

    Fairly old scam, not sure how people fall for it, since I don't see how they are similar myself :p

    Guess some users might benefit from this though x

    Yeah, I don't know how people fall victim to this nowadays because of the trading taking so long.

    It's like all quick traders fail now.

    oooo man I remember that!!!

    Scripted furni was still a big part as far as I remember back then too. I had to get users to drop the 'throne' in their room to make sure it was real before buying it!
