Board Thread:Animal Jam Talk/@comment-44307903-20191104180152

Pictures will be shown of the "duo" who tried using this method on me. Sorry about this being really long, I don't think I can really make it any shorter...

I'm not very sure of worths, but this wiki lists the hockey masks as being worth RIMs. Unless they are actually rising, then ignore this message, but it might be useful to know about this method in order to avoid being scammed by it in the future!

It's one of the alternative methods of scamming in animal jam, different to the common trust trade giveaways. As it involves 2 accounts or more accounts/people. 1 of the users will have a "rare" item that isn't really worth much, we will call this RARE for now, and another will have plenty of higher valued items asking for that "rare" item, we will call this account OFFER.

To avoid repeating my exact experience, this variation of the scam was 2 member accounts, who could avoid other people interrupting them, as they can privately message people through JAGs. RARE offers their item for an item of yours (example: your spike, party hat, headdress, etc). And depending on who's carrying it out, you'll not very soon after get a JAG from OFFER asking whether you have the item RARE has. The offer will most likely be very high valued. It just baits you into accepting the offer from RARE, then telling OFFER you have it. I have not fallen for this scam, so I'm not exactly sure what happens here, but I'm sure it's along the lines of: OFFER blocks and transfers their items back to main, RARE also disappears and blocks you. And you were scammed.

This is basically what happened to me, but I ignored the RARE's JAG. After about 15-20 minutes (I was going around asking how the personal shops worked..), I eventually got a jag from the OFFER person, who I also ignored. But then sent something along the lines of '???? really? are they going up?'. I'll just put the rest of the convo with OFFER as pictures. Then, the convo stopped for maybe about 20 secs, I get a JAG from RARE saying, 'Should I take no reply as a no thanks?'. Keep in mind this was a very long time after the first JAG, with no contact after it whatsoever. It does seem suspicious to me, it's as if they were reminding me about the offer from RARE being there.

Sorry about this being very long, I just feel that people should be aware of this!

The JAG order is from bottom to top.
