I just thought of a way to improve your account scamming by a small but yet noticable rate. It might also reduce the chance of being banned from forums like markeedragon.com

So what do you do?

There's some people that post their msn on their thread. Those are the accounts you are going to target. Most of the times that I've tried to scam such an account, they've asked me for my forum name. Noob as I was, I gave them my real one.

Later I realized that that was so unnecssary, they searched for my account and found: 3 posts, no successfull trades. So why don't you, before you start chatting, find a trustworthy account. Preferably a person who is online, and if your victim asks for your forumname, just tell him/her that one instead.
If the person is not online, your victim might ask you to login on markee or whatever site you use, to prove that you doesn't fake.

How will this help you?

You will seem like a trustworthy person, and the victim will be more willing to trade.

If you fail, all the blame is on the other guy.


Note. You should probably not use the same msn adress as the email you registered on markee/wowtrade with, as if the admins checks it they might(I dont know, im just taking it cautiously) find out it was you.

Before you flame, I know for some people, this is common sense, but to some people it isn't. Sometimes you got to state what YOU think is obvious, for the people who dont think it is.

Nice tips.

Yeah, but if he isn't convinced still, he'll ask for you to send him a PM, or he'll send a PM, and the jig is up. Anyone smart enough to ask for your MD account name, is smart enough to ask you to make a post in their thread, or send a PM.

I've been asked for my MD forum name 5 times, 2 of them I gave them my real one, the three other times I gave him another one. I've never been asked for a PM, even though it's possible that someone asks that. Make sure you dont choose someone too good, like an admin or a guy that everyone knows with 100 succsessfull trades.

Good point. Lately the people I found were a little too smart, so they often request posts in their threads, though I managed to find a way around it.

As long as the person is dumb enough though, they will fall for it.
