Yeah man, bad coding. It doesn't update the new item after the trade has been cancelled if the item put in has the same name is what it looks like.

When someone cancels a trade, start the trade from scratch. And I think that kind of scam can be prevented.

Still another scam where they can lag themselves out. Remove the item while lagged, and somehow the trade goes through when they come back and you get nothing. Still not sure how this one works, the mechanics of it at least. Doesn't make sense. Read you can prevent that by not finalizing for at least 30 seconds (let them finalize first) and see if they lag out.

Trade window is garbage is the bottom line.

if you got his info (ID #, char. name, and Gamertag), then you can always submit a ticket on him. Also since you have video proof of the offense, they should be able to find him easily, provided that you have the info I stated above.

There will always be bad people, no matter where you go. The person at fault is really sega here. There should no way in hell be a way to scam in a trade window. Period. And if there is, fix it immediately. I'm sure this scam has been around since the start.

This game is huge and I understand that certain things that involve many things are hard to code. And bugs come up, and rollbacks might be needed. But a trade window is basic. Not complicated at all.

This isn't the official boards for PSU. This is only a fan site. If you need to talk to someone, register and talk to someone on the official boards.

I try to avoid trades as much as possible. Too much can go wrong. Best bet is to find the Dark Assassins room, get his GT and ID# and then submit a ticket against him. Submitting a ticket now most likely won't do anything since you don't have any info on him. I hope you get retribution. I am highly against scammers in this game.

If I remembered it was him, I wouldn't have done it. It wasn't a trade window scam anyways, I gave him meseta to run PF and he just left. And to those who are against buying PF's. I have been PF scammed before. I sent in a ticket and they permanently banned the kid for scamming me out of a Phantom Fissure. Sega doesn't care if you buy PF as long as it isn't real money.

Right now he is in server 1 white beasts trying to sell that 8/8 snac for 25 mil, and 10/10 desta. If I had 25 would buy it and give it to you. I have 4 mil to throw up if anyone else has the rest.

I reported someone before with their ID, pics of before and after trade and well lets just say things went downhill from there. Took them as well as MS way too long to reply back and resolve the issue. Things went somewhat well the first time yet when the individuals started doing it to other players they didn't do anything.

My I note that you are allowed to buy anything in this game with meseta as long as it doesnt pertain to some method of cheating

Hes going to keep your 25m and run off like in the video.
And give you broken weapons, instead of the 8/8 and 10/10 ones he selling.
Do you fall for tricks that easy?

He was selling in his shop.

The swap scam is easily preventable anyway.
