Author | TGI scams recently |
Not sure if this is the right forum to post it.
There have been multiple TGI scams recently. I just want to share my experience here.

Someone may send you a private mail, saying that he would like to sell you a TGI with a price much cheaper than the market. He may explain that he exchanged the TGI with his diamond, so you couldn't find the TGI record in his transfer log. In the meanwhile, he may also say that he couldn't transfer the TGI to you because that TGI was exchanged with diamond. Please note that this is a SCAM.
Hopefully none will be cheated in the same way in the future. |
Diamond can't be exchanged to a TGI. :S |
yeah 80 Dimonds are payed at Silent Hill and Immeadietly join
the guild.
u dont get a theif invite for 100k-300k u know.
cheapest is in market.
550,000.
most expensive.
700,000.i hope someone will check this Forum to actually see the price of a TGI.and in market.
And for those who dosent know what's a TGI..its a Theif Guild Invitation(TGI).
and since TGI are very expensive somone who chech other transfer logs are not common to being cheated.
so ppl u havent been playing long or just started might be confused.

Scammers and those wanting to hide their financial transfers to/from multis. |
when u pay the TG by diamonds, u will enter directly the TG .. u are not going to receive any TGI .. |

we need to stop this mischeif! |
I read about the nobodiez incident.
yes, you can say it's his fault for not checking the logs etc before transferring the gold, but still, I wouldn't be surprised if he's so devastated that he lost all his hard-earned gold that he leaves the game. It would be a real pity really.
I suggest any mods reading this should write to this 'lady' and give her an ultimatum - return the gold or be banned permanently. Even we, as non-mods, should write to her and attempt (not sure if it'll work though) to shame her and hopefully, she comes to her senses and return the gold.
Don't really know nobodiez at all, never talked, but have seen him in forums, and he seems to be an law-abiding(?) active player, so it'll be a real pity if he leaves the game coz of this.
Maybe some of us who can afford it can start some kind of fund raising (if the mods can't get the lady to return the gold after 1-2 weeks) and though we may not raise the full amount, at least soften the blow for him. I'll gladly start with 5-10k if anyone is to take the initiative to start the fund-raising. |
Very sad... I trust Jedi-Knight's judgement and will match his generous offer. Let's get together and help this player back on their feet.
I'll open with a 10k transfer immediately. |
Transfer completed. Anyone else want to exercise some goodwill and help out an honest player who mistakenly trusted someone?
If there are 29 more people like me, we can make this player whole again. Please do not violate the 30% rule and please notate any transfers appropriately. |
Very nice! Thanks to Nutella and Ektoras for their kind, selfless donations. Are there 27 more generous players out there? |
suggest any mods reading this should write to this 'lady' and give her an ultimatum - return the gold or be banned permanently.
that would would be abuse of power and no mod in thier right mind would do it . |

lmao, i dont mind to do that if i got the power to deal with :) |

26 missing ;-) |

Sounds great... I guess mods should do that to every scammer and cheater out there right? I myself, lost over 50k gold and a TGI. It's too bad the rules basically say "tough luck" to the victims and the lack of admin involvement just makes things even worse.
Don't really know nobodiez at all, never talked, but have seen him in forums, and he seems to be an law-abiding(?) active player
I've read and responded to nobodiez posts in the forums for a while, but I wouldn't call him "law-abiding", at least not in the past.
While I do sympathize with nobodiez despite him not being careful enough (not checking player TG, LG, and transfer logs) and preemptively sending gold to an offline player who should have transferred the TGI to nobodiez with the built-in game transfer/payment option, nobodiez isn't what I would call a truly honest player.

I remember reading about other CAA topics other players made related to this since I obviously wasn't able to dig everything out.
So while players are donating to help nobodiez out, I would ask them to pause for a second. While I'm not going to donate to nobodiez, I did try to help him out by answering his questions and PM'ing Warnra about the incident. Warnra basically kept denying any knowledge of nobodiez and also keeps insisting that she does have a TGI. |

Hmmm... didn't know that, but looking at transfer logs, there are some 'fishy' transactions but not sure if it's concrete proof enough to say those were his multis. As long as it's below 30% rule, and >>> IF <<< it's not 1 of his multis, it's no rules break, right?
Anyway, my apology if my post got some to donate so generously. If it's found gthat he has violated gthe rules, and not deserving of help, I'll gladly pay back those players the gold they have transferred. (Just write me a PM and I'll do that).
Anyway, I have just written him (nobodiez) a PM -
"Please answer to this thread..
https://www.lordswm.com/forum_messages.php?tid=1878118
Hiya,
I have read about your 'lost' of gold trying to buy a scam TGI and actually got others to try and help you out by donating back some of your lost gold. Someone has replied that you have used multis to assist this character (nobodiez) and that you ahve violated the rules. Please kindly respond to this in the thread. Thanks."
Let's see what he has to say.
Again, my apology if I caused anyone any inconvience. Again I say, write me if you think he's not deserving of help and want the gold you transferred to him back. :) |
Ya i have broken staged combat in the pat but got pentalized for it and havnt done it sence... I have no multis some files croos IP with me becaus alot of my friends and family also play this game from all donations or money donated none has ever crossed the 30% so nothing was illegal... Look how many different ip i play from... Of course im not gonna b the only one with that Ip.. But i am an honest player i made bad judgment in the past but thats the past and i was already fined for staged combat... I appriciate what u guys are trying 2 do.. and also dont call me a cheater or an un honest person, unless its illegal 2 get ut friends in the game... i have never been rude or anything 2 anyone |
And I would like 2 thank everyone who has helped I have made back 57,777 gold from the kind hearted people of LWM... You guys are amazing its not 300,000 but its alot of caring that your giving me which is pricless |
for nobodiez:
Please note that I never called you a cheater or an un honest person. I only said isn't what I would call a truly honest player and all posts I've made in the CAA forum are for 'fishy' transactions that are not properly labelled as they should be. If your family and friends wish to give your gifts or vice versa, please remember to properly label them as such because not only do game rules require it, but these transfers would look fishy and get you reported. I've already seen many posts in the CAA with you or your friends and family in them. |
