So I offered in chat to trade my enchant + 1 mill ad for the next version of it. I was partied by guy I was to buy his item for 1 mill off the market and then we would make the trade. Instead he said something rude then left. He robbed me. In my old game I could report bet my money back and get him banned. Is there nothing I can do? It took me almost a month to get 1 mill ad. Is it just gone. I don't think I have it in me to try to save that up again I would rather play something else. I was told I should not trust the people in this game. But man there has got to be something you can do when someone does that. I have a pic of the chat .

    First, take the players name down before your post gets locked.

    Second, as always, submit a support ticket and hope for the best.

    Pre-First, don't trust anyone you don't already know in game....and then very little at that.

    Sorry to hear about your ordeal, and I will keep an eye out for this guy and interrupt any trade if I can.

    Sadly this sort of thing is all too common in games, i feel your pain but sadly i think your AD will be gone , i hope you had gotten a screenshot of the conversation to back up your claim or the dev's/Admin will only view it as a claim not fact, that is probably your only chance :(

    Good luck mate.

    edit : reread your mesage and you have a screenie, *puts glasses on to read properly*

    So many scammers, so many scammees...
    Does paying someone else first for junk with no insurance not raise any red flags for anyone anymore?

    Apparently not.

    Not to sound rude, but never trade for something using multiple methods. You should have done the entire trade in the Auction House. The person wanting you to buy a different item first should have been the only red flag needed and you should have reported them right then and there. The only ways you should trade is either through the trade screen or the Auction House, not a mix of the two. That's just not safe.

    Your only resort now is to file a Support Ticket and see what the Game Masters have to say. Such topics are not allowed on the forums, so this must now be closed. Good luck!

    Safe travels,
