I love how Hypixel is protecting these scammers. "Do not tell people to report scammers [people who are breaking our rules], because we will ban you [even though you did not break any rules]." AND! If I'd sell a Treecapitator for 800m coins, I'd get banned for Boosting/IRL-trading in a few hours. Yet these scammers manage to make tens of billions of coins in a few days, and they are NEVER banned. The in-game report is useless, don't use that. Create a few emails and spam Hypixel with these reports.
It simply doesn't work. I believe that the in-game report system just doesn't send the reports to Hypixel. If you use email, you'll get an automated response that you were wrong and don't message them again. Fucking joke. Disgusting.
the problem is threatening others as a youtuber is just setting up a bad example for the playerbase "if a youtuber is doing it then it means its ok to threaten people" im sure hypixel is ok with it if you tells your friends/guild to report a scammer as long as you dont say things like "return the items or we mass report you" as for the part that they dont get banned, there are like tens of thousands of scam reports and not so many people to review if they are scamming or just false reports
Literally all these scams are so unbelievably easily avoidable if you're not an idiot, the fact you're willing to help these people is beyond me cause I could never
The Treecap one is weird. You are in such a hurry to buy something for so cheap, you don't notice that it is 9878990989890897 coins. It'sn't "easy" to avoid. Sorry for the rant.
You know what’s funny? You can make a little profit off these scammers. For the first one, get a friend to list the collateral item at like 1/5th the price the scammer says they are worth. When the scammer buys them, dip with your profit. For the second one, you can buy all the low price ones, but make sure to check the price or have a mod that stops you from buying high price items And for the third one, say you don’t trust the scammer and have them buy a low tier item for much more then it’s worth if we all did this when we see one of these scammers, we can edge off their profit!!
Wow this game seems really fun, and the community seems so vibrant. I hope that when I play that I won’t suddenly become addicted to making easy profit!
i got scammed the other day, they were in the dungeon hub and said "first one to give me a normal egg gets 500m", then I instabuy an egg and it was 50m
Bruh I was buying regular ender pearls one time for kuudra and I ended up paying 67 million for 16 😂. Idek how they manage to bz manipulate to that point
There’s another one I found (I like checking out obvious scams to see what they are) where someone tells you to flex an item and they’ll give you 10% of its value, but they try to give the money while ur items still there so ur selling it for 10% of its value
Most of the ah scams can be avoided if you get NEU, since it can tell you if you're buying/selling the item at a lower or higher price and it tells you the real amount, so you have to go out of your way to confirm that you understand that you acknowledged this
okay so the last one was about to happen to me like 3 weeks ago I was kind of tired so I basically declined after saying "Man, Im done getting scammed for today, Please leave me alone" Dude legit had the surprised Pikachu face. And guess what ? I didnt even knew that it was a scam!
funny enough its always so funny to realize the second scam because one time someone "lowballed" me 5 god potions for 100k and one was 100m and i noticed it. so uh thx dude for about 5m in god pots
idk what your intentions are but this might unironically act as a guide for people to scam and have even more people get scammed, even though lots more players will be wary of these types of scams
@@Exarvi But making a guide of how to scam people isnt the move. However, im glad he talked about them, cause i couldve definately been got by some of these
I literally got that portal trap scam happen to me today, the guy was so surprised when I told him exactly how the scam works before he did it on me, then I visited him and yep, I was in a portal trap.
The first scam reminds me how around 2 weeks ago I saw neu said one of those brews I had costed millions, which confused me, I thought maybe it was an unobtainable item and went to the npc to check
What’s funny is the 2nd scam happened to me but i didn’t buy the godpot he listed for 100m and bought the rest for 1m 💀 (When something is too good to be true, it probably is, always be careful 😭)
“I hate that I even have to say this, but should you go and find these scammers and threaten to find their house and dox their location?” Absolutely no- yes
Hypixel just needs to add a report system to this, it wouldn't be hard to entroduce, and it would effictivly kill scamming. I have no idea why they haven't done this already
2k a month is an understatement, the best scammers out there can make 10k+ and have reached top of networth leaderboards, especially if they rat on the side, they literally become rich in real life through scamming kids
Honestly people got to be more careful, if you are taking part in any things where you are lowballing or helping someone do something, you should just be aware, most smart and careful people will never get scammed, so as much as the scammers are bad people, if you get scammed, it is most likely your fault.
this quick buy scam ALMOST happend to me while lowballing, i was lowballing a livid, they had trans limit, they put it up for 140m instead of 14m i clikced it but the "are you sure screen thing went up"
This scam happened to me awhile back, around a year ago. This guy told me he needed help transferring and he gained my trust, pulling the old "yeah scammed suck" making me more inclined to believe him. I lost around 30m in armor and pets, and when I tried to list the dctr papers they never ever sold. I can't remember the guys name and I'm on a new profile now, just wanted to share this.
Just follow the simple rule in skyblock and you wont get scammed, dont trust anyone. If you see anything even a little bit weird just refuse. Check any items u trade in neu or wiki, check every amount you buy or just refuse to trade if the way of trading getting changed during the trade.
My friend does f6 carries and one time he got ratted but then 2 days later the guy who stole his acc, his boss (the guy he works for) got threatened to be doxed.
the quick buy scam i got scammed for god pots for 50m one, bro was listing like 20 of them for 500k but one of them was actually at 50m, and i bought it...
With the mod being used in the original video that shows the values clicking R on the item shows what npc it can come from or the crafting recipe. So easy to avoid lol
For the quick buy scam, if you know what you are doing you can just buy all the cheap ones and leave the expensive one for free profit lol, I always do this
I saw a scam that would basically hack into your account and then you loose everything not only money. Obviously I didn't fall for it but basically they invite you to a discord e.g. for dungeons vc or similar where you need to verify that you re not a bot by logging in to a "hyAuth" bot which when you do it will ask you for a one time log in code which when you type it in the scammer can login with the code an do whatever he wants ... Pretty scary one imo
Bro has the mod that lets you know the raw craft cost, which had already mentioned upon hovering your cursor to the items. Should've seen that coming tbh.

Just saying but when you relist an item it will have a different auction uuid so it won't 'replace' the old auction at an inflated price. Also the auction API only updates once per minute so if the API was updated and then you auctioned and item and cancelled it in the next api call it will not show up as an active auction.
the first one happened to me, but I was streaming to a public discord with about 100 people watching and a friend polar confronted him and the scammer lost brews and my items so what should I do with the extra items..
“Additionally, under no circumstances is it okay to call other players mentally challenged.” bro 😭😭😭
