Hi! Remember me? I'm REALLY bored today, so here goes! Today I'm gonna talk about scams. Recently I've seen a lot of people conning newcomers out of clams, and I'd like to show you how to avoid being scammed.
We all see the people trying to make a few clams buying cheap things and selling them for more, right? You recognize, "Press 123 if you would like anything here!" You probably just ignore it, unless you see a really good part. If you want a part, you'd type in 123, and the person probably then tells you how much it costs. Next comes the part where you have to trust the person, hoping they will actually sell you the item. One way to tell if the person is going to scam you is if he or she is willing to give it to you first.
They might not send you the part but instead have you send the clams while they lie about "sending you the part" and straight out scam you.
If I was buying parts off of someone else, I'd personally use the Trading Post. It's a rather unknown place, but it is 100% safe. If you want to get to the Trading Post, you can select it from the bus menu. Otherwise, go to the bazaar and you'll see a sign for it; it's a tent way off in the distance.
The Trading Post is simple to use, although there is one downside -- you have to wait 3 days if it doesn???t sell. But it's still an efficient method, if you don't want to get scammed out of your precious clams.
I hope less of you will get scammed not that you know about the trading post.
This is pokenorn signing off 'cause I've gotta go feed the frog. Bye people!
