Scamming is B-A-D

Okay... Here's the scoop. Scammers. S-c-a-m-m-e-r-s. Scammers are people that scam. To Scam it to take other people's items without them wanting you to. It can be done by force, bribery, fake friendship, blackmail, threats, hacking, etc. It's really not fair. Some people will tell you that you should suck it up or that it's a item made out of pixels get over it. And they are right. I mean about the its made out of pixels not the get over it part. The truth is, it hurts when you are scammed. Now, lets travel back in time to when i was a little new to animal jam. I had 2 member gloves. a mummy and a legend glove. I was pretty happy. But i wanted some more to give to my friends. So I hung around in Jamaa township to see if there was any traders. Then, someone walked out of the crowd and said, "Send me 2 gloves and I will send them back with another one!" Now, I didn't really know what a scam was, So i thought to myself, This is a good deal! three gloves! So, I stupidly send both gloves. They quickly left. They switched animals and later returned trying to trade people MY gloves. I confronted them and asked them to please give it back. They said, no trade backs. I said "You scammed me! That wasn't a trade!" They wouldn't return my gloves.I said loudly, " LakerareAWESOME is a scammer! No one cared. Now since then, I have 2 dragon gloves and 2 legend gloves. Also golden ones.




How to find a scammer.

1.The decliner scam. This person will say "I decline all trades!" It's a scam. They will wait till someone offers them a rare item then accept it and run away.

2. The friendship scam. This person will pretend to be your friend, after a while they will ask to try on items or borrow stuff. They will say things like, "Come on! I'm your friend" "Why would I scam you?

3. The glitch scam. Someone will say, "I found a new glitch! Send me ***** and I will show you it!" Or "There is this new glitch, but a bad item has to be traded for a bad item for it to work."

4. The lion/Arctic wolf/ Snow Leopard code. They will try to tell you if you send me **** I will tell you a code for a -----! It's a scam. Once a lion/arctic wolf/snow leopard code is used, it won't work again.

5: The blackmail scam. not really a scam, but this person will try to pressure you into sending items. They may threaten to give away personal info or hack you etc. never give in. they probley bluffing

6. The birthday scam. This scam is someone in the township says "Its my birthday send me stuff!" Even if it is their birthday, they don't need to be begging for stuff.

7. The sending scam. This scam can take many forms, so I will try to list them all.
First one. They might say, "send me the best item and you get EVERYTHING I'm wearing!" NOT! They will take your stuff and leave.
Second one. They say "Im poor send me stuff" Chances are, they are not poor. If they are, why can't they go earn gems or something?
Third one. They will beg. AND beg. ANNNNND beg. And they won't stop. Best thing for you to do is go to your den and lock it or change servers. or spam them with junk mail

Edit:

8: The send me diamond stuff and i will send betas back scam.
Not really much to explain here. I saw 2 people doing it in the diamond shop. Just a hunch, but they might be the same person or scammer buddies. Here is at one ponit they were saying. I'm not going to use user names, I'll just call them Bob and Fred

Bob: Send me me diamond store items and i send betas!

Fred: (the same thing)

Bob: I just sent a beta!

(I would like to make the point that he didn't have any beta's, just store boughts)

Fred: Lucky. What item did they send you?

Bob: Black Legend. (Another point here is that he is now wearing a black legend)

Fred: Cool.

the person who just sent it: Where is my beta?

Bob: come to my den.

He leaves to his LOCKED den along with fred.

THE END -.-

That's all I can think of for now. I know I  missed some, but I will fix it.Random pokemon pic! NEVER TRUST YOUR ITEMS WITH ANYONE ELSE BUT YOURSELF!
