Anyone ever done this?

[Darkmatter]

In your early newb days, you were scammed and then you got revenge on people who didn't deserve it with that same scam? I know I sure did. There was this popping scam that involved Akara and a SoJ (That was the catch.) so I dis and got scammed along with another guy. Then me and him scammed people using it and other methods and different NPC's, and we quickly got a lot richer then we would have any other way. I feel sorry for them now, but I was definately an angry newb back then. Anyone else do something similar?

welll,i probably made some people do that.

because back in my prime riches in 09 and early 1.10 i was godly scammer,i made lots and lots of riches scamming,alot more then i did from botting.

though i never scammed friends,i was actually really nice to friends and shared my riches.


but when i was noob i made a frienmd who tried to scam me with the "open this file" and ill drop all my items scam.we became really good friends and made lots and lots scamming.

Ya, I nailed somebody with MSD, but then he decided to help me with further dupe scams and we split the loot.

personally, i like the scam where you upgrade a long war bow or some other normal unique normal item to elite status and then trade it off as an unid windforce or something.

ver handy, although a little on the pricey side in terms of runes.


fun to watch the msgs roll in tho, after people id and find out theyve been scammed.

 

[Darkmatter]

How does that scam work exactly, muncyhman? You upgrade a unique NM bow to a hellbow, but twhen they idenify it, it changes back?

 

[EEX_ca_aok]

No, you upgrade an unid godstrike for instance (so it would become an unid windforce in appearance), and then when they ID it they discover they have a Godstrike Hydra Bow.

even though windys aint worth squat---- the best was the fill your inventory with pots popping scam back in 09---- we would say we found a way to increase ed and ias on weapons and people would actually do it--- that was some funny shit when they would run to grab their little bodys and any of their crap gear was still layin on the ground--- "pleaseeeeee give me my gear back"

 

[Darkmatter]

I see. That's a pretty mean scam right there. You could do it with Valor, GF, and the other Hell Uniques...Deaths Web, etc.

actually whoever said they up a unid item and trade it off as a unid wf is pretty retarded because when you up a unid item it ids. ive tried it with kiras guardian tiara and or w/e it is and thought i would be able to trade it off as a unid griffons but i was said to find out it ids when upped =(

 

[Zerglite]

the worst i got "scammed" out of was a chipped emerald

i dont trade for anything, if i dont have it, or my friends dont, ill either find it, or get over it
