Just to give you heads up people.
I was recently selling my 300tril naq to get some cash for the beginning of new school year.
So i made a thread here. Not a long time after i get a PM to add harchester on MSN. So i did that and there we agreed upon $135 + $30 (He was going to pay few weeks later). The day came and i saw no chages in my paypal. Tried to make contact several times, but i didn't get any anwsers. I'm not sure when that was, but when i loggen on Gatewars i went to private trade brokers page. There i found out that harchester has renamed his account to RoKeT or so i understand atleast. I really dont know what to make of it, but i just want you other people to know about what happened and maybe it will help you to find a trustworthy tradepartner.
Just a reminder: We live in a hostile environment and there are people who's only purpous in life is to cause grief and sadness.
Safe trading everyone!

If i'm correct, Harch scammed RoKeT for the account you traded the naq to, but RoKeT got that account back, and he may have changed the name of the account back to RoKeT. I don't believe RoKeT is involved in this one bit. Just looks it as he changed the name of the account back?

Did you get the initial money and just left with the $30, or did he get you for it all?

Re: harchester and RoKeT scamming.
Well we all learn from mistakes usually, just make sure to always check the Blacklisted Traders section and also the Feedback section. Always just do a search on this forum for the username when you are considering trading with someone and see what it brings up.~Alcos~ wrote:Too bad there weren't any topics like those in this thread...What's done is done i guess...

Unfortunately scamming is not cheating, it's just a twist on the rules of the game that leave one with everything and the other with nothing. So accounts can not be banned for scamming.
