It's pretty simple...

1) Don't ever go first, even if they're requesting it leave the deal. Its better to leave something, then to lose something believing you're going to profit and that if you don't accept the deal you'll lose it. "If you don't accept in 10 seconds I'm ending my deal"

2) Don't trust people. Its pretty simple, these are people over the internet. They could easily screw you over. Friends? Um, more like pals that could possibly be using you (this doesn't comply with everyone some people are legit but most aren't)

3) Again with #1, if something sounds to good to be true just shut your PC off or something. Theres times I wish I never logged on, like the day I logged on and my friends who I usually let borrow stuff before I took a two week break. Once I came back, they asked to borrow I let them boom 260k down the drain which is equal to 320k in todays values.


thats pretty much it for my point of view, post yours if you'd like but to avoid scamming is pretty easy. Now, this just covers scamming not getting "hacked" which 99.9% of the times is you falling for something which leads to a 'hacker' (skid who buys crap off of HF) feeding your computer malware.

oh and my final message...

Avoid friends who continually ask for stuff, they aren't real friends.

P.S
Posted this because I saw quite a few "scammed" threads. Later!

@Sov; I don't want any problems, its people like you that like to start fights. Go back to C&G.

claiming I scam is pointless and annoying but thanks for your criticism I'll take it.

lol @men


but yeah its pretty simple. Most of the times you get scammed is because you feel you're going to lose a deal/profit/gain something after, or theres some feeling of guilt (you owe him, so you'll let him borrow, etc), theres a ton of outcomes but the bottom line is...


at the end of the day you put your faith in the person. So how to avoid this? Don't trust anyone, like me... I ended up trusting all of them. Each "friend" screwed me over. I just chill with everyone now. I had 3 best friends, SoulSurfa, WorldNobIe, and Trikill76.

2/3 screwed me over, and tri quit and he was my #1 friend then I rated Soul & World the same but they ended up screwing me lol

Soul- 50k
World/Nullout- 260k (which is equal to 320k+) now

but im kinda chill with World now

@Sov; how am I contradicting myself? I don't want any problems can you like stop trying to harras me claiming I scam? I've already proven this like two weeks ago. If you have a problem with me, then go talk to LePosh, Wonkakid, and the other people who I let go through my account. All my trades, sales, purchases etc. Stop claiming I scam or if you're going to do it claim what I took. Its annoying, everyones stopped but theres always that one single idiot.

4 words but I'd get terminated.
