Before steam trading was introduced, bait and switch trades in TF2 were my daily bread
>even as a kid I never could scam people
tfw too much empathy
You are a cunt for betraying the trust of a friend.
I got scammed in Runescape when I first became a member, it was the old farming staff that was listed as being worth like 1.8m in the GE but they were really only worth like 50k, a guy sold me 4 of them for like 1.2m, that was all my cash and I thanked him for the great deal. I put them for sale in the GE at 1.8m each and they would not sell, it took me like 3 days to realize I had been scammed. I was not really mad, I was actually impressed and happy that that guy gave me the idea, so I then bought shit tons of these things at 30k-50k each and sold them to noobs at 400k-1m each, I ended up making 30m which was unbelievable money at that time in the game.

Surprisingly it worked quite a few times even bought Mass Effect and GTA IV with all the points I gained from it which I don't regret it to this day. I also scammed a fuckton of people when dicing was introduced in Runecape and made like 200m which was enough for overloads and got muted like 20 times doing it.
You are a hypocrite user. So because you didn’t do it to a friend, that makes it ok to scam someone?
He didn't say he wasn't a cunt
Although it does take a certain type of cunt to do it to a friend.
I loaned a irl buddy of mine my first ebotd Colossus Blade, and literally watched him get scammed out of it by his online buddy running a long game on him. I didn't really care, because afterwards we just paid like 20$ on PayPal and bought like 200 ladder high runes a couple days later, but at the time I was pissed because I told him not to trust the guy.

My friend had something done to him like this as a joke on WoW (like actually, nothing bad happened, it was a joke, but he got mad)
>he on skype talking to friend
>friend goes "hey dude download this"
>file called NotVirus.exe
>"oh haha very funny, what is this really"
>*chuckle*"just download it dude"
> "haha fine whatever" he does thinking the friend named it that for memes
>turns out it was a backdoor program
>the dude assumes control of his computer and mounts friend's character, flies up high into the air and dismounts, killing him
My friend actually got so mad he threatened to kill him,so i hear, but the dude quickly deactivated it and my friend just deleted the file

My friend and I scammed a kid on Xbox Live and stole his gamerpoints from him because he thought we had a Jtag Xbox that could mod a MW2 lobby and get him 10th prestige and everything unlocked.
I remember playing Dead Rising while we were scamming him. I later on used those gamerpoints to change my gamertag kek. Kids are gullible as fuck.
it's the new iOS default filename. if you see that kind of pattern or IMG_xxxx it's a phoneposter and you should shame them.
I've seen so many awful fucking posts with them lately, this is good to know.
