Once again - I decided to post another section on scamming strategies (appropriate place for this is in the HACKING section). I went into a thread all about the in game drop hack with the cube, and the subject ended talking about annihlus scams. IF YOU HAVE A GOOD SCAM/IDEAS TO MAKE ONE...POST HERE so all here can take advantage!
Scamming is really done with annihilus these days .... Without realizing it - blizzard made (what they thought was a good thing by not letting anni be tradeable) one of the scammers best tools.

TODAYS FEATURES ANNI SCAMS:
Wall Trade - Atmas house in act 2.

Victim is in the southmost corner of atmas house (in act 2).
You say - ok go in im gonna drop anni to sho i got ..etc... persuade them...get them in there. then they agree to trade -- they drop the goods - u drop anni.. they run for ur anni -- when they almost there - pick up your anni and run up to the wall - u can snatch their items through it b/c its not classified as a wall b/c of its design.

Palace Trade - Act 2
Victim goes on the balcony of Jerhyns palace in act 2 -- (hehe meanwhile a buddy is sitting in the harem LVL one ready to pop out when they run for your item...
u drop they drop -- when theyre almost to you u whisper your friend and bam! free items! Simple..Easy..Done.

Ive made numerous hits with both these scams... Ive heard of other methods in act 3 , but im not sure how they work .. if you know - post!

If you ask me,only a total looser cheats and hacks another players,how can you be happy with those items???Or thinking yourself as a hero maybe?

The main problem is that game is played mostly by no-brain teenagers:(

1. Since this no longer is a hacking forum we will respect your oppinion but I guess that most peolpe here dont share it.

2. Stealing other peoples items is harder than you think, a common mistake that non-hackes make is that they think hackers are über-powerfull cheaters which steal and destroy without ever being nice, we are human too ya know and it takes alot of hard work to steal item worth stealing :rolleyes

Hacking the game yes,duping items maybe...but stealing....especialy from people who did 100 and up runs for the item..i cant understand that...maybe that`s the new life-way of youngest ones:)

I think nothing about those people mate,99% are using another people`s work...powerfull you say?:) ...my opinion is above

There is nothing beter than a WF or a GF drop(for instance) after a baal run,well,it happenes too rare if i may add,but that`s the point:)

And here comes the game hacking:pick up`s,self-muling and so:it`s good,and that`s why i am reading that forum,the best place for that :)

And this is the point where hacking is founded :)

This feeling you get when you press "I" and see a Unid WF in your inv, people want that feeling but they don't feel like working for it. So they try to steal it.

But you are right: I never stole an item from a noob by scamming him with some cheap scamming method. I also think that is wrong. I steal from people who "deserve" it. I steal from people who piss me off, I steal from people who download my ****** because they think it is an account-stealer-hack. And I steal from people who are rich enough to get over the lost item.

Some people only have like 1 Shaft, thats their best item. Then I would never steal it from them, I have hacked many accounts but 60% of them I gave back since they didn't have stuff I needed. I never deleted any chars on stolen acc and I (almost) always restored the PW after grabing the usefull stuff ;)

And that`s the way hacking goes:) ...because of people`s greed and stupidity as you said above:DL trojans instead of godly hack,poor PC protection...that`s the only way i guess,i dont thik the Telia server`s admins are stupid enought too allow break-through..at least they soudnt be:)

You are swedish right?Do you have any idea what`s the structure or that Telia server?A micro-machine or just cascade-conected minor servers?I allways wonder about that...well,it`s not an easy work dealing with 200k and up users allways online:)

Whatever,at least it`s a way to leasr more about cheating methods,a very usefull topic indeed

It`s time for coffee out of hore,later:)

I would've quit diablo 2 long ago if it weren't for the hacks. A long with a lot of other people. Scamming and hacks are what keeps a lot of d2 users still playing.

I have my own little scam bot and I got 3x enigmas from it.

-Search for "my bot"

its not really a scam, it just waits for people to give it items.
