    Why did you complete the trade without him giving you payment?

    It is sad that we all can't be friendly to each other in-game. I think the Alexina Community should note him about unethical behavior to his community players. No one deserves to be treated unkindly in-game.

    He's apparently treating people unkindly in forums as well. All because someone didn't respond to a note.

    Okay, from what i understand...
    1. The player made party which said that he's making a giveaway of his items.
    2. Then i don't know why and how you trusted and naively gave him Trade Unlock Potion so you could get some kind of item which was personalized apparently as well.
    3. Then you run here to forums screaming "SCAMMER!" and even post the said "scammer" name, which is against rules to do so, because no one knows if you are saying the truth and you need to submit a ticket for this so GM's could investigate the accident further.
    4. In the end, it's your fault for trusting a random guy who claimed that they're "giving away" a personalized item (giveaway for no reason?). Sorry not sorry.

    The best part about the name-posting is that OP has actually misspelled the scammer's name, which brings us to one of the reasons we're not allowed to name people on the forums - one mistaken identity and someone unrelated gets blamed. (We can check at the mailbox if a player exists; thankfully, there doesn't seem to be anyone going by detux/Detux.)

    I know it's misspelled because the scammer attempted the same scam on one of my buddies.
    And I know the real name, but I'm not gonna post it here!

    It just got worse. :trollface:

    P.S: And yes, i understood right away that OP misspelled said players name. Wouldn't be surprised if they did it on purpose to avoid the removal of post/name.

    They also posted the screenshots on Facebook about them being 'scammed' and one of the people who were involved in the 'scamming' was one of those shop-bots that had like a gibberish name.

    It is always good to get both sides because the truth is somewhere in the middle.
