Scammed out of my Condor .45 :(

[Trednot 2]

I was scammed out of my Condor .45 by a fellow named  a few days ago. Grinded for over a week to get it. I sent in a ticket to G1, but I dont know how long it will take.
vBelievev was my account.
Might take a few months off of this game until things get resolved. 
Hate to see the community go downhill, Have fun everyone! And watch out for !

so you decided to try to trust someone in the game when they announced they'll implement a trading system.
bye.

name and shaming? sorry we dont support educating our users of this forum as it promotes factual infomation, rather we strive to promote toxicity by misleading everyone

Selling your item first 
Trusting people on the internet 
Calling your poor decision a scam

Scamming happens in every game that doesn't have a secured way to trade. This game isn't any different. In general you shouldn't trust total strangers on the internet. You let yourself get scammed so I suggest you learn from this experience. Do note that by no means am I excusing scammers here, they are total twats for sure, but it's not like they have control over your actions.

If you do a trade, always send your item last, whether you will be a scammer or not is, well, your choice I guess. The few times I've traded I always have the other party send first and luckily due to my activity in the community people tend to know that I'm trustworthy. However, anyone can make up anything. It's the internet after all.

I'm not giving you any either. I've been scammed when I was a kid and since then it has never happened again. I'm just giving you some advice so that you hopefully don't lose your hard earned weapon again.

First and only time I have been scammed online was in Ultima Online.  Back then you could secure trade but you could not fully inspect items like spell books to see if they had the spells you wanted or not.

I got scammed out of a lot of gold buying a blank spellbook, after that I learned my lesson.  I'm shocked people still haven't learned their lesson considering there is a post like this every week.

If you were dumb enough to get scammed in game, you deserved to be scammed in game.  Most of us aren't desperate enough to get scammed.

the absolute state of this trash forums

victim blaming = AWESOME

name and shaming = HORRIBLE

[Trednot 2]

I'm literally just trying to inform people to watch out better. Ive been playing for years, and made a mistake haha.

[Teardrops69 17]

Everyone who reads these forums regularly doesn't need a warning and everyone who's going to post this same thread in the very near future doesn't regularly read these forums.

99% of tge people on the forums are not stupid to trust random people and they are aware that the trading system will be added

issue for support, name and shame not allowed. hope it does get resolved though

although it's pretty much your fault, just sell it via social mp for normal prices if you try to get another weapon (sure, taxes apply - but this is the normal and safe market

[AsgerLund 1271]

So, you don't know the game well enough to not get scammed, and you don't know the forums well enough to not name and shame.

Good luck on your ticket. It should probable be a low priority case at Support, but I hope you'll get your answer in due time.

[Regenance 59]

Well, they announced there will be a new trading system whatsoever, so until then use Middle Man whom is trustworthy or just get over it and solve your own problems do not trust anyone at the internet. And obviously do not trust things that are easily to get.

1. "Grinds for weeks" to get a weapon.

3. comes to the forum to complain
4. ???
5. Profit

just send proof u talk to this guy send screenshot of message like he buy gun and wait new devs have alot of work to do because old G1 is shit in develop u can see this now (i see this from long time): 1. lags on servers / 2. no anticheat turned on in late state just manual bans / 3. and more more of this like no actualization no preformance tweaks etc.

as now we got performance tweak if u not see (delete item if u not see it same with anticheat it was quite fast implemented as we know apb is in shit engine as always so to implement good anticheat is very hard. and ofcorse lag conpensation fixes there is no actual lags BUT u can experienced some strange spikes from server its caused by ddosing ? as i think
