I just sent the following scam alert to Neopets, reporting a Neomail:
winnowilll said he was clearing out his SDB but that's obviously a lie because he bought three of them from my shop! I guess he didn't realized that he'd bougt them from my shop when he was talking to me.
Neomail:
Hhhmm... Really? I was cleaning up my SDB and couldnt find any in shop wiz and i just put it in TP along with everybody elses prices
I believe that there is some kind of price inflation scam for the item called Ultra Deluxe Faeriepop.
For the longest time I'd had two of them in my shop for 20,000 NP (which was more than triple the market wizard value that I payed for them) because I like the way they look, they match my shop. Today, I noticed that they were all bought up for my 20,000 NP price by ferferfer77. I figured it was a n00b mistake (even though the member's account is 7 months old) and thought nothing more of it.
I went and bought myself three more to put into my shop . I used the wizard and found them for about 6,000 NP. I put those in my shop for 20,000 NP again and ferferfer77 (along with winnowilll this time) bought them all up. I went to buy myself some more (again) and this time there are pretty much none left on the wizard except a few selling for 99,999 NP. I messaged ferferfer777 about the purchase and the member never got back to me. I messaged winnowilll and he sent me the above Neomail. He says he was cleaning out his SDB and was selling the ones he had for the Trading Post going rate but I guess he didn't realize that he'd just boughten two of them from my shop.
Very fishy business...
