ok, i already know there are some posts about this, but yet, people ARE NOT LOOKING AT THEM BEFORE BUYING!!!!!!

These tips will help prevent anyone from scamming you.

How you know its a scam:

1. The host is ONLY asking for M$P, Live, Or Accounts. None of these will pay for a new KV

2. The host him/herself is not 10th, lvl 70 themselves

3. (not always, but suspect)If there is no livestream, and the host refuses to have a livestream

4. The host says he/she's on their KV, just waiting for donations to start - No hoster would sit there and wait their KV, either they would get payments before starting up, or start up a game with only them, and their friends in the game, not waist a KV that costs good money

5. If the host doesnt know a whole lot about a jtag, there are many things you can ask the host to check if their legit like:
- Kernal Number
- CB Version
- Type of KV(make sure you yourself know the difference)
and more...

6. If the host refuses to show proof, Or only shows a YouTube Video.

7. Says their paypal is suspended or limited - Usually this is because of scamming or unverified, or they just don't have one and want your M$P

8. If someone starts asking questions about the jtag, and the host kicks them or "they mysteriously leave"

9. And the biggest thing with helping not to get scammed - USE TRUSTED HOSTERS!!!!! the lobbies that are stickied, and the people that tell you to join them on their livestream, and the Broadcaster is in the lobby, are the people you want to buy from.

Make Sure your 100% sure they are legit before you buy. No one likes to be scammed, and no one likes to listen to people whine because they got scammed.

If you do not go through some of these steps to make sure, and you do infact get scammed, don't cry to everyone else. Take the responsibility of a customer, and make sure your getting what your paying for.

Now, IF you do how ever get scammed, there are some things you can do about it, sometimes...

If Scammed through paypal - File a dispute against the person and work it out like that.

really... if you were scammed... thats the only way, other than that, your M$P, Live cards, and everything else you got scammed out of, is gone, so deal with it. Research before you buy.
