Ran into this person "Monika" other night on one of my alts. "It" was selling a house at EBbank an entrance for Delucia. "It" thought I was a new player and after some conversation wanted to give me free stuff. I told person I am fine and don't need anything.
Although "it" came across as very nice (and a slow typer w/semi decent english), "it" was very pushy with wanting to push items on me. "It" claimed "it" was from Lithuania and was playing with her husband watching or something (it was his bday and they were celebrating by playing UO and drinking or something)
I finally gave in and was like what the hell (I usually don't trust anyone on here except my RL friend). After the person gave me TONS of stuff they asked if I needed a house. I told "it" no. Again "it" was very pushy so I was like what the hell. What is a free small by the entrance of Delucia gonna hurt?
After showing me like 5 or 6 of "it's" houses and friending me to them "it" gave me a free small just a couple screens from the Delucia one it was selling.
Apparently throughout the night "it" was constantly complaing about my fast typing (I type with both pointer fingers but I average about 40-45wpm doing it which is not all that fast, only average). Along with "it's" complaints it kept tellin me to get some skype BS. I'm not a computer nerd (more of a console gaming freak) so I did not even know WTF Skype was.
Drunk ass me (was high on coffee and alcohol at the time) was finally like WTH. What is it going to hurt? They done gave me all this chit for free right? Skype is jus sum kind of chat thingy. Right? Can't be too bad right?
WRONG
At the time I done finished all the skype signup/download "it" claimed "it's" husband was now playing cuz wifey was walkin dogs or sumin.
As soon as I signed up got the chat thingy open and added "them", "it" and "it" enetered the room it started to constantly try to send various files directly to my CPU!
I was like hey man WTF you doin! I don't want your CPU sendin mine all this bullshit. "It" was like what you worried about "we are good ppl."
Yet these "good ppl" have a hard time takin NO for and answer so after manually having to cancel like 8 or 9 different files they were constantly trying to send I closed it down deleted it and scanned my computer to make sure nothing made it's way in.
To make a long story short beware of people giving out free shit.
IT IS A SCAM FOR A MALWARE OR PHISHING ATTACK. And frikin trust No One on this game except Derrick himself or people you know in real life!
Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
Well you could take all the free stuff and then when skype comes up say no thanks and log out inside your new home and wait for them to leave. Just a thought.

Yeah I think I am going to cuz now (even though the scan came off as clean) that comp gets conctant Run Stop errors when loading XP and it is totally ka-poof.
All the drives and devices scan off as clean and working but I either get TLDR error when loading XP or when I try to do Restore it gives me STOP: 000000A error.
I spent almost 2days trying to fix it but I think something is wrong with hardware even though it scans off as everything working properly. I can't even do the restore from CD because XP won't load and after failing to get through the factory drive "clean" restore (kept freezing at naming CPU part) I had to go the destructive route which does the STOP error not even 25% into it.
I will just have to take her in to the shop
I found this MERUNIA person setting up a vendor house near trinsic.. i inspected their house security to find that it was indeed open. I walked over something invisible, to my surprise it was the house owner. I promptly dispatched the owner, and looted the house. I went back to check and found this MERUNIA person going in and out looking for me I suppose. I quickly attacked and killed them, then the owner again (the same person). Likely setting up another fake vendor house.
Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
FYI Ivy had a written agreement with me on IRC and broke it, his word is garbage
he lied, was extremely rude, gave me the run around, and then pretended like he was going to sell and didn't
BTW he also admitted to me openly that he runs scam vendors all around Yew and LOL'd about it
I recommend everyone against trading with this unprofessional nitwit

Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
His name was Robert Paulson, and he was a man!
Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
Might have been posted before. Brules market at Trinsic Moongate... Vendor Leo selling crap weps renamed. Item ID. Good rares next to it though.
Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
I'll stand behind Brules that he does not scam. Must be scam vendor using his name.

Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
Vendor immediately west of Brit Moongate selling 'Full' spellbooks for 4k... Not a single spell in them!
I'm not sure who the bigger fool is here, me or them for doing themselves out of future trades, what with it being such a great vendor spot!

Re: IRC/Forum Scammer Reports
Sadly that is a very old scam vendor. I would suggest making a merchant character like i described here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=38634&p=335154#p335154TommyB wrote:Vendor immediately west of Brit Moongate selling 'Full' spellbooks for 4k... Not a single spell in them!

Also if you ever need a cheap full spellbook I sell them for 3500 here but they go quick:
