It's a terrible shame but cyberjoueurs allows this to happen even though it really is their property being sold.
Here it is for all to see...
Exchanging Items & 'Scamming'
Character-owned items, such as tools, houses, and bomy pets, may be auctioned or traded within Graal's auction or trading features. If, due to bugs in the system, there are discrepancies between the buyer/seller terms and the actual result, GraalOnline will make all reasonable attempts to rectify the situation.
Any exchange of materials outside GraalOnline secured exchange locations, falls under the term 'caveat emptor', or 'buyer beware.' In other words, GraalOnline will not be responsible for rectifying broken promises, incomplete trades, etc. in such a setting. If trading outside Graal 'sanctioned' trading locations, trade only with players you can trust.
This 'caveat emptor' approach does not mean Scamming is legal, only that it is difficult to prove. If Graal Police witness a scam directly they may punish the offending player. The best way to avoid being scammed is to only trade within secure trading facilities in Graal.
Meaning if you do any trades outside of graal, like through any instant messanger system, you take the risk of being scammed and cyberjoueurs cannot help you get your money back or the items one person "said" they were going to give you because you don't have any proof.
It should be looked at though, i'm sure that 5% of the people that want to use instant messanger "even though it's not for USD sales" would be upset if they were suddenly banned, but if you ARE trying to sell graal for graal items there's just no excuse for you to use instant messanger. |
