This is my friend experience , anyone going to buy cheap BSB due to raffler event please do take note ,

My friend saw a vender shop name “ETC” that selling Angel Magic Power which exactly look same like BSB with the price of 18m ea ,

I cant said that this is scam bcoz the tittle not mentioned his is selling BSB , but this is intention to confuse buyer , once my friend found out wrgly bought it and try to warn other player but seem like no one put attention on it , so just try to share out and behave on it

Player might though that is BSB with cheap price and buy it immediately without look carefully , yes it might is a mistake from buyer as well , but the seller know about it and do it purposely ,

It just like that Abbys dress matter , remember that the OCP is vendable for a short while and ppl bought it with 1B for 1 ocp box

Not a scam if the vendors dont write BSB on the shopname.

Not a scam

It's the same case as with people selling the poring pet's accessory when HBP first came out. This led to the item being renamed to "Poring Pet Backpack", and iirc the GMs stated that such practices do fall under scams.

Hello there!
Thank you for bringing that to our attention, do note posting name(s) of user(s) accused of ill-mannered behavior on forums is not permitted.

It is indeed both items do share the same sprite, for that you can report the incident for investigation

 

From RO1 guidelines [link]:

 

 

Economic Activity

  • Scamming players with items with similar sprites is prohibited

 

 

 

The item in question:

https://www.divine-p...ksmith-blessing

 

Being sold as:

https://www.divine-p...gel-magic-power

 

As a side note, while sprite sharing is an issue, I'd personally advise practicing reading names of items just to make sure you are buying the one you really want.

Scenario#1
What they sell: angel magic powder
Shop name: anything other than BSB
Conclusion: not a scam

Scenario#2
What they sell: angel magic powder
Shop name: blacksmith blessing
Conclusion: scam


Price is not an issue since it is free market, you can sell at any price you want.

This has absolutely nothing about whether it's a scam or not. This is purely about the vender true intention of doing this. What is his intention. First of all, why did that vender decide to do what he did (assuming he knows exactly what he's doing), and why he thinks it's right him to do that. You got to ask the vender those questions ,and if he can't answer it other than to get every single zenny out of any players then whatever he's doing it's probably wrong. In the end, it just come down to one thing moral.

 

Clearly his intention is to scam or trick people, you can't deny that. Does he has the right to do that? Sure why not.  Like I said it all come down to just one thing which is moral. Some people has it, some people don't that's what separate good from bad people.

Price is not an issue since it is free market, you can sell at any price you want.

Both are scams. Selling an item which has no value, for a price comparable to an item with the exact same sprite, when the item you're selling is in reality worth 1% of the cost you're selling it at, 100% indicates an intention to cheat, and therefore is scamming by using similar sprites.

 

The point is, whether it is a scam or not depends on whether the seller intends to cheat possible buyers by hoping they confuse the item for something else. If they actually make efforts to cause that confusion, such as naming the vend as a different item, would be called Fraud, when you claim to be selling X, but you in fact lied and it is actually Y. A scam is where you take advantage of a person's misinformation or "stupidity" for unfair gain. That is literally what is happening here.
