Ah my friend, I was scammed about 70ex/70divs in my POE experience. I know it is my fault but POE people are sometimes scums and that I am often not aware of.
Alone in this League I was scammed about 24divs, my biggest and stupitest scam till today. And you know what? There is nothing you can do. Not shame them and the support can do nothing too. But you know what? Shit happens and the game still makes fun, if the trade bricked your build that sucks too but there is allways another day of farming and rng will hopefully bless you. | |
BTW, the rule is... if someone cancels the trade while saying "I have to make room in my inventory" or something similar, ungroup and leave immediately. Don't look back.

" Yep, this is a sign that you're 99.9% going to get scammed. The most popular one that I've seen is they try to tell you that you put the wrong currency into the trade window, cancel the trade and re-invite you to trade, taking your mind off their switch.

I often cancel trades cause my inventory is a mess and am constantly trading stuff(full mf farm) and never scammed anyone and never will,so not all of us "trade cancellers" are bad:D

" You're right, but it's not worth the risk. If you do it, you're going to lose trades from people who know. I'd cancel and leave immediately. Blame the scammers. Last edited by t0lkien on Sep 1, 2023, 10:27:57 AM

" there's no risk if you can control the outcome | |
" Damn, that sucks. Sorry for the loss, I feel your pain as it happened long time ago for me too. I had only one guy attempt it so far this league but I always take my time (up to 30sec sometimes when i'm kind of tired) checking the stats, again if cancelled so I can avoid these type of stuff. I just don't trade when I'm really tired. Last edited by Leotharyl on Sep 3, 2023, 3:18:47 AM

You live and learn. You explained how it happened so now you know not to let it happen again.
