Lolol im sooo dumb

Ahhhh i thought it would never happen to me. I always see threads like "Omg i got scammed!" and i think, wow why is that person dumb enough to fall for that? But last night i fell victim to the oldest trick in the book....

Starts out like any other night, browsing the fm, lookin for good deals ect.
i see S>20% Luk earrings 650m, so i trade him. I only had 450m at the time so i asked if that would be enough if i traded items. He said the money was just fine alone, but he wouldn't trade. I was getting kind of frustrated because he was being stubborn, but it was a deal of a life time so i stayed. He said go to cc 3 fm3 so i can put it in a shop. I go to the fm, another person coems in saying "I WILL BUY IT FOR 899m dont sell to him!" and i thought aww hell no! my earrings. He opens shop, i wanted to get it first, and sure enough i did. Immediately they both left and my heart dropped.... I knew i just did something completely idiotic. I look, and woop woop epic earrings, 2L with no % at all.....

salt for me right lol. I'm not asking for anything or begging because i literally could care less about fake money, but i cant believe i fell for that garbage. I feel pretty stupid lol I guess the saying stands... If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Just for a heads up incase any other maplers are being lured in, his name was PlayBoyMule. Be smart about it, don't lose 500m and end up with 500k in 3 minutes like me.

TLDR: I fell for the dumbest scam in the history of maple. Im an idiot lol >.<

This is actually quite smart in my opinion but maybe If I was in your position I think I would have fell for it.

Also wouldn't you think of it to be suspicious that suddenly a person appears saying he'll buy it for more when you are a place only you two arranged to meet at?

Yeah something like that.... i don't remember the other ign. Its really dumb to scam when you have billions as it is. Not the average person has 20% earrings, so whats the point of 500m when you have 30b.... If i was 14 i would probably be a lot more upset than i am now, it isn't a big deal, but all i want is to play this stupid game! And now i am gonna have a hard time lol.... i wish there was a way to get back. D/c haxxxxxxx

One of those scammed you right? All of them are the same people and
it pisses me off when I see them in the FM. One day I saw him spamming, so I started spamming that he scams. He got pretty mad and said, " f--- your mom." Just shows his immaturity. But yeah, I seriously just want somebody to get back at him
