Over the years I've spent on Gaia, I've spent a fair amount of time playing the marketplace. In this time spent, I have encountered quite a few people who were able to give me a good laugh, from the people who try and get me to sell them an item for cheaper to the people who see my name in the marketplace selling expensive items and decide to try and scam their way into my account. In going through my inbox, which I haven't cleaned out in ages, I found many PMs that I couldn't help but want to share. So here they are, for your enjoyment: My PM Adventures!
PM number one made me scratch my head in curiosity, namely because I can't quite understand how anyone can fall into a trap like this when half the words within this PM are misspelled, the sentence is put together in a way that makes no logical sense, and the username... I mean... It's not even something along the lines of "Admin" or anything! *Sigh* Silly kids. Those who get hacked because they provided real information to people like this DESERVE to get hacked.
dang15: "Dear gaia online member,
Gaia online team has been repoted that your gaia online account has multiple stolen items in invintory.
Gaia online team will need the informatin bellow to be filled out
if information can, and or will not be filled out your gaia online account can, and or will be ban.
Username:
Password:
Thanks gaia online team,"
So in reply, I said: "OH EM GEE! I'm scared! DON'T BAN ME! I am so scared of being banned that I think that against my best judgment and against what the ADMINS of Gaia say, I'm going to give you my username and password information!
Username: ********
Password: You'reNotGettingIntoMyAccountBitchGoToHell
Please save me, I didn't do anything wrong! crying "
I got a very brief reply of: "Account will now be ban withen the next 24 hours.
Thanks,
Gaia team"
Needless to say, my account was neither hacked or banned. Go figure!
Ok. My next PM comes from a user who I like to secretly think of and address (if only in my head) by the name of Egghead.
UCHIHA SASUKE 811: "PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ CAN I HAVE SOME GOLD IM GOOD 4 IT"
Me: "No."
Mister happy caps lock: "YY"
Me: "Because it's my gold, and I can decide what I do with it. I have decided that I don't want to give you any gold, and that is not up for negotiation. Go beg someone else and leave me alone, or better yet, figure out how to make gold for yourself, like almost everyone else does."
One of the millions of kids who think they're cool naming their accounts after some stupid anime character: "ILL GET IT BACK WHEN I GET A EGG"
Me: "Good for you. Now leave me alone. I'm not giving you any gold, or anything else for that matter."
Teh Noob: "u lil ******** b***h a** ***** and u get no p***y"
Me: "Why thank you. I may be a lil ******** b***h a** ***** who get no p***y, but I'm still the one with the gold. So go ahead, cuss me out with your empty insults. I know that deep down inside you're crying because you're lack of virtual currency that is extremely easy to make gives you a sense of inferiority. Knowing this makes me feel all... Warm and fuzzy inside."
UCHIHA SASUKE 811: "I GOT IT NOE LOL I GOT 6 EGGS 5 LIV 4"
Hehe... I don't remember if I replied, but if I did, he didn't reply back or it would've been in my inbox.
Ok. I got two near-identical scam PMs which rather than replying, I reported, because I figured some people would actually fall for this, and because it had a website link. I'll just post them in quotes.
