Recent scammers (as of September 12th, 2015)

supernaturaltvshow - this person was trying the "decline all trades" scam with a bit of a twist, saying they would send a beta to anyone who offered the best rares for them to decline. Of course they accepted someone's rare trade and ran away like everyone who tries this scam does.


tanktank100 - this person was claiming to be doing a giveaway at their den for a rare purple short (I assume spike collar or wristband) and that it would be a trust trade. Thankfully the smart Jammers around them wouldn't fall for it, and they ran away very quickly after being called a scammer.


omgilovebarbie - this obvious storage user was saying they would give their account away to whoever did the best trust trade at their den. First of all, trust trading is always a scam and secondly offering to give your account to someone is a violation of the Animal Jam rules, plus they will likely take any rares you put on it after they reset the password on the parent's dashboard. People falling for account giveaways like this is exactly how they get "hacked."


sunshineo2 - at first this person was offering their non-member bat wings in a giveaway at their den but suddenly stopped offering the giveaway and then started asking for normal trades for it. I can only assume they stopped trying to scam when they saw me standing close by or maybe they just gave up and thought they would have better success trying to trade fairly. I honestly do not know which.


Scourge00000 - they sent me a Jamaa-gram telling me to go to my den. When I got there they said they would gift me their spike if I would trust trade them. I called them a scammer and they ran away immediately. (I missed screen capturing them saying to trust trade them and for that I apologize for my slow fingers.)

foxrulesworld3204  and wolfn4848 - foxrulesworld3204 was saying they were giving away a fox hat at their den, but of course when everyone got there, they said it was a trust trade. Many who had arrived left immediately, saying they knew it was a scam, but some did stay behind, including another Jammer, wolfn4848, who started offering a giveaway at their den. I just left at that point lol.


gummysoda23 - this person was asking people to trust trade them, saying they were making a video. Lots of times people will say they are recording just so people will be more willing to trade or gift them but in reality they are not making a video at all. Anyway trust trading is always a scam, but this Jammer gets a caution orange because I never saw anyone trade them at all (and I am hopeful it was because everyone around was just too smart to fall for it).


Ravin001 - despite having plenty of good rares on trade, this Jammer was asking people to gift them a headdress and in return they would gift something from their list. This should be an obvious scam since they could easily trade fairly for a headdress and will likely just run away and not send anything in return. When I asked them why they wouldn't trade fairly, they got mad and left.


stacy90259 - they said they would gift back to anyone who sent them good clothing gifts, insisting that you trust they would do so, despite having good rares on their tradelist.  I assume they meant rare clothing but in any case people who say gift for gift often don't gift back or just give something that is not equal in value.
