He got a guildy yesterday or Sat, don't remember. Hope he was smart enough to report and petition as we suggested.
Unfortunately, this likely isn't his only account and the cash is banked elsewhere already.

They must have read the Scam on Brell and decided it was too easy to pass up. Yes VI can tyrack items plat of any transfer. There is one way to pass on goods that they won't do anything about, but I won't name it here.

I would assume Ninan is referring to dropping it on the ground? or can they track that as well?

Platinum can't be dropped on the ground anymore.

probably something to do with trader mode.. the character is an npc so any plat transferred in a sale isn't recorded right since its not a "PC" at the time.. explains why i see bone chips selling for 100k. someone trying to launder plat so it can't be traced..

Mattmo was yelling and cursing in Shadow Haven a few days ago. He was like overly cursing. on purpose to get in trouble.
I messaged him and he said he was quitting. Gm showed up and such. I left before I found out what happened. Next day I see Mattmo in SH again. This time he is very quiet.
I message him. hahahah Your not banned yet? He said "Should I be? " he was clueless to what I was talking about. So I told him about what Mattmo was doing the day before. He explained to me he has 4 different people with access to his account.
So it seems to me he doesn't care if he gets banned. Oh well. Good to warn people about his/their scams

Hence the reason *no one* has access to my accounts?
Or are people too stupid these days to realize just how easily passwords get handed out after you give it to one individual?

Yeah people hacking others and grabbing items off the ground will get no GM actions at those people picking up the items. I went through this when I got hacked and deleted and had to start all over with no items except no drop.
They can identify who picked them up, but won't act on that whatsoever.
On a brighter note... and back on topic...

I am REALLY REALLY surprised you got your money back.
They have said over and over again. If you MQ, don't cry when the shit don't work, you have been warned.
You must've just cashed in one of your nine lives or whatever lame superstitions say.
