ok, so i go to sythe hoping to buy 6 members pins so that i can run a few members scripts, such as flax picker/spinner, pure ess miner and seed theivers. i see a thread, "selling 14 pins 900k each". perfect! i think. just what I wanted, as i had 5.4m, which is 900k a pin. so i talk to the guy on msn, he seems legit, and we decide on my giving him 450k, then he gives me the pin, then i give him another 450k. and so on and so on. ok, I think, he seems pretty trustworthy and i only registered at sythe 15 mins ago, so for all he knows i could be a scammer.
so i give him 450k, he logs. bugger, 450k down the drain. i take a screenie or two, and post it on his topic so no one else gets scammed. about 5 mins after i post it, i get a PM from another trusted member, who has a few "vouches", which is basically rep or something i think. he says "sorry you got scammed, etc etc, would you like to buy the pin from me, im a trusted member." so i say sure can you get me 6, he says no but i can get you 5, 1m each.
so we talk on msn, he seems truly sorry that i got scammed, and we decide on a similar deal to the other one, that is, i give him 1m, he gives me 2 pins, i give him another 2m, he gives me 1 pin, then i give him 2m, and he gives me another 2 pins. fine, i think. so i trade him 1m, and he logs.
so now im 1.4m down the drain, and my hopes of getting pins are all gone, cause who would sell me 6 pins for 4 mil? no one.
moral of the story: fuck sythe.
