Yeah I'm sure something like this has been posted on the forum before but I thought I would put the information I have out there so ya'll dont get fucked over.
SCAMMING -
Don't deal offsite. Period. 9 times out of 10 offsite deal will be a scam. How I look at it is, if the SM is offsite I don't even classify it in the market. I just have to get over it no matter how much I like the user name. Dealing onsite you still do need to be careful. There are so many multis onsite a lot of them get taken off by philly. But there has been cases where they are not caught they build there rep and scam out. It has happened (its rare). If a user has a decent amount of rep, but you are still not sure if you want to go first with him, there are tons of onsite middlemans. They will walk both of you through the deal and make sure it goes legit. Make sure you use a trusted MM as well! No one likes getting scammed. It's not possible to completely eliminate it. Like I said people scam out of the site. They are just done with the community and want a quit bang for there buck. It's sad. Those few steps and rules will help you keep getting scammed on the minimum.
TURBOS -
I'm sure if you are big into SMS you have heard of Turbos. Everyone sells them, or give out methods to use them. People that lurk on the forums to finds shit getting sold quickly just to set there turbo on it are scums. Main money maker for turboers are the GamerTags. When buying an SM try to buy from someone who is close to the most trusted seller you can find. You don't want to have to worry about them pulling back the account on you. If you do find that seller, keep the name on the account! People that turbo tags literally sit on them for a long time. They know that they will swap. They are not stupid. I suggest to play the game safe wait a month minimum and you should have no worries. Swapping usernames in the first two weeks is very very sketchy. There is a high chance of a turbo being on it. The longer you wait with the username on the original account the safer it will be to swap. For example this boy @rude had demon on that same account for a year. He knew there would be absolutely nobody sitting there with a turbo on it. PLAY THE GAME SMART!
CRACKING LOL -
BOY IF YOU ARE DUMB ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU PASSWORD SOMETHING SOMEONE COULD GUESS OR A COMMON WORD THAT WOULD BE ON A WORD LIST.. You is dumb. A tip though, don't sign up to sights that are cheap and have an pretty high chance of a date base leak. I've heard it happen to many people. If you do siign up to sites like that make your password something dif from your common pass. People can get your shit through it basically ruin you.
Well everyone I hope this helped some people, leave me some feed back or add some stuff if I forgot anything.
Thanks Everyone
