Scamming has been increasing. In the past few weeks, I have gotten at least 10 pms for all kinds of crap:
Scam 1 (Fake-Administrator)
Your account has a virus. To ensure the virus is quarantined, you will be permanentely banned, unless you fill out the following form:
Gaia Name:
Password:
This is obviously a scam. No administrator would ask for your password.
Scam 2 (glitch scandle)
I have found a way to double items. If you trade me any items, I will double them for you.
Again, obvious, if there was a glitch like this, GaiaOnline would have fixed the problem almost immediately.
Scam 3 (idiot)
if u let me borrow ur Dark Star i'll send u a event item of ur choice!
What kind of idiot sends that through a PM? I would definitely not let anyone borrow my items (well, almost noone). Besides, that is barely readable.
I don't know how many @#$in;g password scammers I got, and I know I got alot of item scammers too.
