It is where one person puts a lot of rares on trade (spikes, den betas, neon bows) and is offering that list for an item not worth very much, but difficult to find (for example, a pink construction hat.). Then, they take another account with that item and start trying to trade it to people for any rare spikes or other things they have on trade. If the person accepts the trade, they get the item the scammer 'wants'. Then if they offer the item to that person, they will leave and take the other account with them, so that the victim has just recieved a useless item for something good, and the scammer gets a new good item. It is a very clever scam that you need to watch out for! Thank you for reading this and please report the person I found doing this: wingzero

Spread the word! how do they even get the account?

trading accounts is against Terms of use. What do you mean, get the account? I don't think you understood this scam, Lightning. They have TWO accounts, and 1 has a lot of rares to offer for an item. Their spare account gets on and has that exact item they are looking for. You offer a lot for the item, because you're selfish and want to exploit the game, but when you finally trade the person who originally offer a lot for the item, they say, "Sorry, that's not what I was looking for."

Personally, I think this scam was beautiful and deserves a thumbs-up, because they managed to trick me of all people into losing a black and silver long.

And, btw, they were not trading accounts. (I'm currently thinking you're an underage user because you couldn't even understand a simple message that I could understand.No offense.) Actually guys the person is saying they took the SPARE account with them not the victims account This scam has been around since AJ first started. I got scammed this way of my green and yellow long in arouuuund 2014?? They target slightly rare people who dont really know their rares well enough. And as you think about it later, you think how STUPID you were.... Like the person who wanted The Skull Helmet was trading like 3 white beta tails for it but the other person was declining, '''so why would they ever accept your trade of 2 bad longs???? '''Tragic.
