I don't remember the name of the people, but I saw the same shouts while I was in Little Ala Mhigo yesterday. One person claimed they had paid $10 to join the PBC forums or something, and their money was taken and they weren't let in.
Another said they'd paid a member 10,000 gil for them to help with a dungeon, and they took the money and ran off.

I can't look up their names since that was the other day, but trixter67 is being honest about what she saw.
