It's funny that people still find ways to blame GGG for something that's entirely the players fault. If you bulk buy and don't check item prices, then this is entirely your fault. End of story.

Look at what you're doing and don't just mindlessly spam click to buy. Problem solved.
I know better solution: they should shutdown this horrible trade system. Problem solved. People can focus on game instead soccer manager.

Heads up Exiles – there’s a nasty new scam in the trade system, and people are losing big currency to it.
Here’s how it works:
Scammers list a batch of items in the instant buy window.
Example: 20 Inscribed Ultimatums.
Half are listed way below market value (bait).
The rest are listed way overpriced (the trap).
If you bulk buy, you don’t check every single item price – you just grab them all. That’s exactly what the scammer counts on. You think you’re getting a great deal, but you’re actually paying several times over market.
And here’s the kicker: GGG Support doesn’t care.
No refunds.
No action against the scammer.
You’re left holding the bag.
So what does this mean?
If you bulk buy, you are 100% on your own.
The system basically allows scammers to do whatever they want.
Spread the word so fewer people get burned. Until GGG fixes this (if they ever do), your only defense is to know this scam exists and avoid bulk buys unless you want to risk getting gutted.
Stay safe out there.
So know the price of something before purchasing it. Brilliant, great advice.
Funniest part of this entire post is that in an effort to completely rip somebody off and buy up the items as quick as possible without reading anything, you are the one who got screwed. Justice?

OP admits he did not check prices.
This is a user issue. It sucks, but you got burned so now you know to check next time.
well to be fair, imagine going into the store and buying apples, most apples are priced like you would expect apples to cost but in the same bin you get same looking apples but they cost x100 more. you pay as soon as you pick them up (there is some stores that do that) no refunds, all sales are final
XD
But these aren't in the same bin. These all have their own sticker prices very clearly displayed. Bad example.

in d2 you could rob peoples gear when they were transferring..
join public games and hunt people down to pk them..
talk endless trash and pvp scene was ruthless..
your body could "pop" if you made a simple mistake and all your gear would fall on the ground for players to steal..
countless "learn to dupe" scams..
item swap scams..
scams create a ruthless environment. it might be annoying and feel bad to get scammed, but just learn, adapt, and move on.
That happened to me on D2. My Paladin was number one on the NA server with legacy items that cost me super rare runes I spent countless hours farming to get. One day I joined a PvP game and all my gear dropped on the ground after I died and players descended on all my loot like vultures stealing it all.
I didn't learn, adapt, or move on however. I tore out the CD and melted it in my fireplace and never touched the game again. It's a good thing a monitor was between me and those scammers, or I'd be in prison right now.
