Just got scammed while buying nightmare maps
|
Hello,
Yesterday, while purchasing Nightmare maps, I was buying them for around 25 chaos orbs each. Unfortunately, the seller was a scammer, and I ended up buying one map for 25 divine orbs instead. This was very frustrating. The usual confirmation pop-up did not appear because I was trading through the web trade search. Could you please assist me with a refund for this transaction? If you review my purchase history, it should be easy to identify the scam and the player involved. Thank you, GGG. I hope you can help resolve this issue. Last bumped on Mar 17, 2026, 10:11:04 AM

Yeah i've seen this sort of thing going on. Ultimately it is user error from not checking it carefully, but when there's players intentionally setting these traps, it's obviously very profitable to do, and not great that the system doesn't guard against it. I'm not sure exactly what they could do to prevent it. Players just need treat it like they would a face to face trade and be very diligent checking.
The only thing I can think of would be, maybe based on the initial searches price range, items with a vastly different price outside a range get highlighted. Probably would take some work for them to set up anything, so it is going to be on players to watch it themselves at least for now. I think there might be a way to block any players you see doing that from having their items show up in you trade searches. I think you can probably do it from clicking their account name in the trade search and adding to a ban list. Not certain, but i've seen something like that for regular trades in the old system.

" It does warn if the price isn't the same as the item you originally went to buy |
