Scam avoid

[Edem]

Here's a thread to warn each other about scams and scammers.
First name on my blacklist is Scar Bat, who scammed me by 200g, because he didn't pay the last part of the taxi fee.
Oh, and beware: Tapestry Shred scam.
Though you might know it's not real, but...

Try to avoid bad deals, too. If people try to trade items with you instead of actual currency, chances are they'll overestimate the value of the item they're giving you in order to maximise the chance of making a 'sale'. I've been caught by that before...

As for the tapestry shred... WHAT THE HELL IS IT IN THE GAME FOR? I spent ages in Gwen's company, giving her presents and being generally nice to her. All I got to show for it is a useless red rag and a Police restraining order
