At least three high level, respected players have been spoofed recently, where someone creates a character and uses a VERY similar name.
These scammers, then ask everyone they see, to borrow stuff... Gold, offhands, amulets...
DO NOT ACCEPT TRADES, EVEN WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW WITHOUT CONFIRMING IT IS REALLY THEM!!
I assume they are only in Lirs, as they are disposable chars. They be the same class as the original, but will be a brand new char (under lvl 5).
Be sure to talk in clan chat, to the person, OR initiate a whisper by typing it out, instead of hitting reply, when ppl are asking to borrow items.
When in a trade, start making it a habit to read the player info, in the trade window.
After they steal your items, they sell, or trade them to another char, and delete the fake char.
Be sure to contact support immediately, with as much info as you can so these ppl can be caught and punished soon.
Remember, If it seems even slightly fishy, DON'T DO IT.

#2This has become a serious problem, and im assuming we all have an idea who is doing it and what clan they are in.
I havent been scammed like others, but when people use real money to buy plat to get items and then their items get taken something needs to be done.
Is it possible for one thumb to lock certain devices where the accounts are being made. And banish them? Im sure each device has its own unique address.
But in the meantime we need to look out for eachother. Let eachother know if a fake account has been made and is online.
We shoukd make a list of known scammers who are still in the game
1.kagura
2.grablon
3.admetus
4.mrsmiracle
5.dualblades
6.traxex
7.drxkingxten (sic)
8.ultimus
9. Nathan
Those are the ones i can think of.
Maybe if we all complain we can get their accounts locked and devices blocked.

Re: Scammers on Herne! ALL PLEASE READ
#3All we can do is, as a community on herne avoid and boycott these players.
Admins will not do anything because they....
A: Don't really care.
B: Don't have the man power to police every ingame claimed scam and sorte out what was bad trade and the person thought after it was done he didn't get a good deal, what is an actual scam, what was payment... The list goes on.
So Instead they made multiple and multiple ingame pop ups, and countless posts. The fact is u can't go anywhere in the forums without seeing this
And the truth is... If these people listened and followed these simple steps it would never have happend.

Re: Scammers on Herne! All please read
#10We arent complaining just letting ppl who dont already know who scams. You may have given the items back and got scammed but the fact is u did scam so if some new player joined they might want to know who has a history of scamming. Also we haven't been scammed its just an informative post.
