Well might you all Know that often scamms Happens durin transfers.
I have an idea to avoid this like following:
Dear Admin,
maybe you just do something like a banker who you can give items to and then you Type Name who to give to.
So you couldn't get scammed durin transfers.
Would Be nice if you could do that
Thanks - Awesed

Please don't think of this as a critique, but I really would like someone to explain to me how they are being scammed. I just began playing CH after the last update so I have no idea what it was like before, but I do hear endless shouts on my world in the castle about how a player is scamming people. I just have no idea how someone is getting scammed. It would seem to me, unless I am missing something, that the only way to be scammed is to allow yourself to be scammed.

This is 100% true.
However it's not always so simple. Mainly because a Free-to-play game brings with it a lot of naive children. So they enter into game meet a few people, play for a month and then want to transfer some things they worked for to another character and choose a transfer-mate poorly and lose it all. Or they choose to transfer all their gear at once not in small single lux item transfers to minimize their risk...again naivety not neccessarily stupidity though the results are the same.
Is it their fault? Yes. In judgement and naivety, but it's the game's fault for not patching this loophole and sealing this last bastion for scammers.

Thanks for the reply Tea. As an older player this idea never crossed my mind. Now I can understand the issue better.

Hey smelly guy on the street I've never seen before,,, here are my Lamborghini keys. Please park it. I'll be right back
Hey little boy can u hold my iPad while I use the bathroom?
Hey creeper guy. Can you hold my baby for a second?
Do any of those things make sense? NO, PROTECT YOUR VALUABLES!!!
Do not let anyone hold them while you change guys. Only transfer with someone you know very well. Dont trust some random person... Clannie or not. eAch server has a few people with a good enough reputation that you know will not steal from you, choose them or choose friends.
TRANSFER at your OWN RISK!

The fear of getting scammed worried me so much that I created another account that I could xfer with. Of course it is only because I have two iDevices that I can do this. Although, in my clan, the chieftain and generals are trustworthy for xfers also.

Just about everyone on Rosemerta knows I can be trusted to transfer. I feel very honoured with the trust and would never do anything to ruin it.
I have been scammed once before by someone who should have been trustworthy but ended up being the main reason you don't share account info as was not the right person on the account. It is not a nice feeling and I would never make someone else feel like that

It's insane that they make players wait this long for a necessary feature. There's no excuse for this delay. So many people have been screwed, and all of these items scammed should be reimbursed. My brother has played since February and has been scammed of all his items, over 250k of stuff a couple weeks ago. That ruined the game for me now I cant even include my family in the fun I have in this game anymore. This game is even more lame that I cant make enough gold to get him the items REQUIRED to play the game and have fun. This Mailing System was supposed to be implemented in the LAST UPDATE 3. The excuse I got from admin when addressing this problem was: We gave up on adding it into the game because it would delay the update more. SO U PUT MORE CONTENT ON BEFORE MAKING THE GAME SAFE TO PLAY, WTF?! On top of the other bugs and imbalances in this application, its a pisspoor game. I'll keep playing since ive invested money into this game AS WELL AS ALL OF MY TIME EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST 9+ MONTHS. Although if there still isnt fixes to the game mechanics and interface I may get very bored and just let this game fade out and away from my real life
