Ok so after seeing all the scamms going around i decided to post some of them for newer users.
TIPS
1) Never go first, use a trusted Middle Man. if one is not online, then wait.
2) Always check the scammers list to see if the user is a scammer.
3) Don't rush a trade, if you dont have time to makethe trade, then wait till you do.
4) Always take pics of the msn conversation, text copys are worthless.
POPULAR SCAMS
1) Impersenating a trusted Middle Man, always check the middle mans email address as there are imposters. A pm on ttg will also work.
2) Never download any zip, exe. rar file. they are all keylogged. Some keyloggers are undetectable, so dont rely on your antivirus program
3) Don't buy a account with recoverys, 9 out of ten times they will recover the account.
4) If you are given a account with recoverys, dont put items on the account untill your recoverys are set. They will most likely recover the account with your items on the account
5) Do not use paypal to sell your items, as chargebacks are common, paypal is a scammers friend. If you must use paypal, make sure the buyer pays, then files a chargeback, then cancels. only after he does all three is it ok to continue
