    A reminder for everyone here to NOT trust any user who gives away free items through chest shops.

    There are scammers floating around who make you believe they have chests of free diamonds/valuables and try to trick you into clicking a chest that will not give you a diamond, but instead, give them a large sum of money, courtesy of your /bal.

    If you cannot read a chest shop sign, do not click on it. This is very important; read your chest shop signs carefully and even if there are plenty that say the same thing, always check every sign.

    Please pass this message on to the non forums folks you see, and report any suspicious behaviour, such as someone advertising free valuables and try and get you to click a chestshop for them.

    Don't be another victim,
    Thanks :heart:

    It would be better if they made a warning message for tradeshops to see if its a scam or not.

    We can’t always spell out everything for players or they will read essays. This is why for now we rely on people being good and helping and supporting others.

    Would probably be best to create an announcement about this on discord if it's becoming a big problem, I know a lot of folks (at least on mv) check up on discord much more than they do forums.
