Hi jammers! It's caterpilliar again! Today's predicted rare item is rare nerd glasses, sold on the 2nd page of jam mart clothing!
Good thing they are nonmember! I like them, I think I'm considered a nerd :D
Our main topic today I'd like to talk about is scamming. Scammers are people who try to take your stuff to become rarer. If you are gullible, you are very possible to have your stuff taken away by them. I will give some examples to NOT fall for.
(*= I have been scammed this way)
The you send- I send method
My sister was scammed of her Hot Cocoa machine this way. I will give an example.
You are in Jamaa township, and you get a jamagram saying send me a rare, and I will send something better back. You send your rare claw machine, that you worked so hard to get, since you will get something even better back. They then log off and you never get your item back, and they never send you anything in return.
The Best Trade method
I (wi1s this time hello there!) was scammed in this way. Here is an example. You are in Jamaa township and someone says best trade wins my list, or best trade wins my outfit, and swear they will decline. You look at it and it's really good, so you trade your fox hat, rare bow, rare backpack, and smoothie machine. They accept, and run away or log off. You are left with some cheap item that they can probably get another of.
The Decline Method
I don't know anyone that got scammed in this way, but I know it happens. Here's the way it works. Maybe you are at adventure base camp, and about to go to an adventure, when someone says Trade me I never accept. Try me! So you start with some cheap things, and they decline, so you trade your freedom hat, cape, glove, and mask. They accept and leave. You never saw it coming.
The Best Gift Method
My friend tried to scam in this way, but I stopped her before she could do any harm. Maybe you are
just wandering around and the words wins rare bow catch your eye. You read what the person says. They say Best gift wins rare bow. So you send something, a freedom mask maybe. They say, OK The competition's over. The winner is...... And then they leave. It's an easy way to get scammed.
The Win ______ At my den method! (not that common)
This method isn't that common, but I know it happens, because I got scammed this way this morning. Someone told me, I'm giving away a free eyeball at my den! So I went there. Harmless right? Wrong
. They did all sorts of competitions, and me and someone else made it to the finals. They said best
trade gets it. They had declined my trades before, so I just did it. They declined, but I lost. They said,
Just to be fair, they'd give me one last chance. So I traded them, and they accepted. I have one more method to share, and it's not exactly scamming.
Hacking
I know some of you are probably yelling at your screens, sayingn Hacking isnt Scamming! But, it
kind of is. This is scamming on a whole new level. It can happen to everyone, gullible or not, and you
never expect it. Someone learns your password and gets on your account. They gift or trade your stuff to their account, and you log on, and the stuff is gone. You never know it will happen. It's absolutely horrible.
And as always, Play wild!
~Caterpilliar~
P.S. Well, partly caterpilliar. Part way in the I send you send method, She stopped. So I did the rest.
