Definitely report him to the

Definitely report him to the Game Masters using the in-game complaint function. There's a number of choices, and in-game scamming is one of them.

With this video helping to prove your point, and if they can verify it happened on their end, hopefully he'll have some swift justice headed his way!

He deserves to lose all of his crowns/CE after scamming you like that. Maybe even lose his ash tail coat, too.

I wasn't the guy getting scammed and I'm getting mad just hearing about this. 3800 CE is several months of ME-driven play for the average Joe.

I agree with Rubyeclipse but

I agree with Rubyeclipse but if i were u i would take this video down right now, it is also an offence of "name and shame". I would take it off the forums and then send it to the game masters in a support request.

never expect that

Thx guys, as I was scammed b4 in other game, I tried to verify everything this time to avoid scam. I asked him to join my guild and check some basic info of himself, and it turned out to be that he is pretty nice when answering my question. So I traded him, then...such things happened. I really underestimated him and I am wondering how many players will be like him? xf

Re: Erridunno

Yes, I think so too, I just got angry about this person, but not this guild. I should make a apologize to that. I will take it down as soon as problem being solved.

Re

I am a GM of Dark Guardians and I am extremely angry on this guy, he is of course removed now (or rather brutally kicked)
I am considering reporting on him and suggesting that other 96 members of our guild should do the same.
This is outrageous, nothing more to say. Keep an eye on scammers

This is why I only lend to friends and by friends I mean people I have known for months and ever years.
I'm sorry that happened to you. I hope you get this issue resolved and the guy gets the banning he deserves.

Erridunno is right, you aren't supposed to name names

Just set the youtube video to private or something and provide the link to whichever GM responds.

OH boy here we go

You were smart to video this I hope spiral wouldn't become one of those games where scamming is a reliable way to make cash. Hopefully the Game Masters handle this right away and impose swift justice to make an example out of this guy and to show this is definitely not allowed period. Paying ce binding fee is the most significant way to scam someone since unbinding cost so much so be wary when people ask for the ce up front unless its someone you truly trust. I am a little confused tho did you set up a recording so you could catch this guy if he scammed you?

I hate these scammers. They still do it, even though they should know that people have recording devices like this that can get them banned.

I can't believe you fell for

I can't believe you fell for that. I only lend Crowns or CE to people I know I can trust because I know them IRL or know them long enough to know that they'll pay me back.

I hope a GM helps you get your CE back and bans that guy's sorry butt forever. Or at least take all his stuff and give it to you instead, that would probably be worse for him and you'd get a major win :p

Though, next time you talk to someone about trading bound items make sure they have enough CE for the unbind. When I wanna trade stuff that's bound I always make sure that I have enough CE for the unbind. I do that because I only unbind when someone's interested, and I do it in front of them :p

Anyway, good luck getting that solved! (In case it isn't yet, of course.)

@All of U

@All my dear friends who gave comment above,

Thx for all your help and until now, GM finally refunded all 3800ce and inform me to keep an eye on these kinds of trading in the future. Meanwhile, this guy finally be punished. From this experience, I can make two conclusions:
1. most of the players in this game especially in some guilds like Dark Grandians are friendly and understanding, and I think besides good skills and nice appearance, honest is always the most critical thing when u live in both virtual and in realistic world. Luckily I did recording this time and get my ce back, there could be more players be scammed but can only accept their loss. So only if the trader is reliable, should u keep some evidence for some unexpected results. Screen shot and video recording are two ways recommended.
2. Compare with some GM in my country (which is China) years ago, I found great games are always these with perfect customer support system. I think SK is the one that makes me enjoy myself in, not only because the gaming system, but also the extraordinary game maintenance, customer feedback system and the forum with bunch of kind-hearted players. I really appreciate to your response, which makes me so warm.

As my English is not that good as you guys cuz it's my second language and most of the time I performed as a listener more than a speaker, I will continuously follow the discussion on forum and submit my video on youtube (hope no report one anymoreXD), because I found sharing is always more enjoyable than anything else.

Hope this game can become better. And hope new maps be released soon xD
