Here is mine:
In response to this thread: http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84068
I finally saved up for my first rune scim and had the 25k for it in my bank(This took a lot of goblin deaths and cow slaughter; RAWR). After advertising for 5 mins in lumb bank, someone finally sent me a trade offer and ZOMG >.> there it was...My soon to be rune scim. I calmed down a little bit and said to myself 'now remember chig san out there in the real world, scammers could be a lurking'.
The guy then proceeded to start giving me other items such as pots, hammers, flour, etc; (basically junk to me now but back then I was going nuts cause here I was getting rune scim + more). Somehow during the time he was trading me these items, he switched the rune scim with an iron scim and due to rs's next to nothing graphics back then, I never noticed the difference.
After he was done trading everything, I looked at the trade window thoroughly (with scrutinizing eyes and without a touch of emotion on my face) and then proceeded to unwillingly trade him the 25k. Second trade window comes up, I looked at the traded items, but this time my eyes were not so scrutinizing and were mostly on the top of the window waiting for the guy to accept. He finally accepts; I with the blood rushing through my head with my sweaty, shaking palms and after checking for the billionth time that I had the requirement to wield a RUNE SCIMITAR, proceeded to click accept also.
Trade finished, and with a rush of adrenaline I moved my mouse ever so gently across the screen(well as gently as you can with that much adrenaline pumping through you - more like a loop-de-loop pattern), found an item that looked like a rune scimitar, right-clicked, stopped, hmm...weird. Right-clicked again, "Flipping shit!".
That's right ladies and gentlemen, I just got scammed and at level 51 cb. Of course I didn't check the name of the person who had committed this abomination but I was able to describe the outfit they were wearing to everyone in lumbridge bank so they will know to stay away or for someone to wait for them in wildy and KILL them. My description of the outfit came at a cost cause it turns a lot of people in lumbridge bank were wearing full rune and a cape.
