So, yesterday, I was playing and a player (not going to say his name because he MIGHT have been Agent K and also its not nice to shame a player) approached me and said you're a (fill in the blank). I asked him why and he eventually said he was filming for a youtube video. Then, he told me to come to the docks, and I came there. He acted like he was recording (not sure if he was or if it was a scam) and then he asked me to trust trade him some charms to wear for his video. I agreed and let him wear a red lord mac lir charm jokingly, but then let him wear my auric aeon blue tower guard charm. After a few minutes, I asked for it back and he kept saying he wanted to do some stuff with it and that I didn't trust him (which I did, but shouldn't have) Then, afterwards, he didn't talk to me anymore even though he never gave back my charm, although he claimed to. Not sure if this was the real Agent K, but I doubt he would start an alt on Arawn for making those kinds of videos. Anyways, just warning you and as the admin said, don't trade any items you want to keep, so watch out. If he is the real Agent K, I'm sure he'll reply and we'll know that it was a (probably) fake. Thanks, and keep your items safe :0
To the OP, I can only sympathize with you. One way to decrease the chance of being scammed is to only trade with those in your clan and/or on your friends list. Always open the trade yourself through the appropriate window.
All the best
