March 5th, 2012

dannywild (memebr) - this person was promising to say the name of people who sent him rare items as free gifts. Lazy scammer trying to get rares for free. When my friends and I called him out for it he got angry and started calling us names. Later he tried saying "Come to my den and get a free item." Yeah right.

lovepup111 (member) - this person was begging for rares as free gifts.

partywolf174 - this non-member was trying the Decline All Trades scam.

SadieSunflower (member) - this person was begging for rare gifts claiming she got scammed and that her non-member bat wings, worns and top hats were lost. While getting scammed sucks, it doesn't mean she deserves those things for free now, especially since she could be lying to guilt trip others into giving her unearned rares for free. One of the latest scamming trends is to claim they got scammed to trick others into giving up their hard earned rares.
Update: turns out SadieSunshine was lying after all, to guilt trip people into giving up their rares. I saw her on March 6th, 2012 and she has a full list of rares including beta tiki masks and worn blankets.
Update #2: (March 26th, 2012) - The Jammer listed in this post left a comment saying that she was scamming on this day and that she is sorry. It takes a lot of courage to publicly admit when you have done a wrong and I commend her for it. Since she is remorseful and promises to never to it again (and I like to give people the benefit of the doubt) SadieSunflower has been green-listed on this blog.

poly329897 (member) - this person was doing the Shout Out scam, where they promise to say your animal's name if you send them items (often rare items) as a free gift. Having your animal name on screen for less then 10 seconds is not a fair trade off for giving up your hard earned rares. People who do the Shout Out scam are not only lazy but they are trying to manipulate people's vanity to get free stuff. That being said however, it's your loss if you choose to send them something, since you are not being tricked or forced to send items.
Update: if you read the comments for this post, poly329897 has expressed remorse for what she did and promises to never to it again. I am happy when people decide to trade fairly on Animal Jam! There must have been magic in the water on March 5th, that helps people better themselves afterwards! LOL! I believe her when she says she will no longer scam so I am green-listing poly329897.

    1. Your apology and remose will be appreciated by all Jammers, but names never get removed from the list. I do not erase history for the convenience of others, though it can be updated when a clearer view of the situation arises. Your name will not be removed, but I will make an addition to the post highlighting your apology, and hopefully your fellow Jammers will not dwell on past wrong doings and be able to forgive you.

      The fact that you are willing to admit your wrong and dedicate yourself to never doing it again should be something you are proud of - because not a lot people have that kind of courage. Fear and embarassment of past mistakes should not prevent you from learning from them and moving on.

      Thank you for your honesty and courage and Jam On!

  4. good for you sunflower. I have been scammed before and it was not fun. I was scammed in that exact way, and I always feel bad for people. Now I wish I had my feast table back :( but it cannot be helped I guess.

    1. So I should turn a blind eye when people try and lie, cheat and steal from others? I will not stand by and do nothing when people's hard earned items are taken, thus breaking their hearts and making the game less fun for them. The only people who have a problem with scammer hunters like me, are the people who do the scamming or have no heart whatsoever.

      There's this thing called "consequences" - and when you do bad things, prepare for the consequences that may follow. If you can't handle the consequences, then do not do the actions that bring them on.

      Responsibility for one's own behaviour - how does it work?

    1. I thought you were fun and cool those few times we met in Jamaa - but I guess I was wrong. If that really is you poly, leaving that comment, you've just admitted to being the complete opposite.

      Well, it your life, but scamming is not cool. Hurting people's feelings by tricking them and stealing their stuff is not cool. I hope one day you are able to realize that. Take care until then.
