I have a money tree on my land. I noticed this noob guy hanging out there, so I zoomed in. He had a hover text, that said click me for $1. So I did to see what would happen. It took a $1 from my account. He was hanging around another money tree at my friends shop earlier that day. He sits and waits for people to come and then of course, new avies will click him not knowing any better. I banned his ass and reported him. If anyone wants his name, IM me in game.

Yes, they actually tried me too in "Hangeul" They claim to pay 1L$, but I knew it's a "pay script", I didn't click. Now I know I was right :)

Maybe someone can stop these scammers, because, well they are.

Did you not read the big yellow notice that this thing wanted to take money from you?

I think the yellow one is for debit permissions - wouldn't there have been a blue pay / amount box? Or did they change that to yellow too?

I didn't see any pop-up. Maybe they hacked their way into making it skip the pop-up?

Because when they walk by and ask, they are very rapid and unfriendly, but it looks like it actually gives you a dollar..

I saw one of these people at an Infohub - was it Hanson? Or... golly. I cant' remember WHERE I saw him, but yes, I'm seeing them around. Sort of alarming.
