Seriously house spam is happening in Zodiark. Billion gil involved

[shantani]

Sorry for the poor English in advance. I am a bad language learner. The title should be 'Seriously houses scam is happening in Zodiark. Billion gil involved'


A few months ago I post a thread regarding the house scam.

One player in Zodiark got a FC with house Shiroganeseven-60, after everyone afk in that FC.

He scammed my friend around 120m gil in the house trading. From the company chest history, we found that this scam has been going for a long time. At least one billion gil has been involved.

Every time when someone got scammed, that player will use a level 1 character to transfer the gil.

We have reported this issue to GM, but after 3 months, that player is still active (even level up), and this scam active still keeps going.

we met with the previous FC master after one month, we showed him our conversation and scam experience. He said he was shocked and that spam guy is an old friend of him.

After a while, I saw the scam guy didn't login in for one month, the fc master became another player. So I thought this scam is over now.

However, about one month ago, that scam guy login again, got the FC master, kicked the previous FC master, level up, change his name, then,

continue to spam more ppl.

This is the worst thing I have experience in this game. I have played this game since the beta test of 2.0 when there is no marketboard or duty finder. But this thing showed me how badly can people be.


We reported him to the GM, after months GM said the case is closed and that spam guy is fine now.

I want to ask the community team, is that means house scam is allowed in this game?

is that means house spam is allowed in this game?

If the suspect is still active after a few months, then yes.

I'm not entirely certain of what exactly is going on here.

Is this guy selling houses, trying to buy houses, or something else?

I believe he's telling people he'll sell them the house, they trade the money and he keeps both. He then repeats this with multiple potential buyers.

As for this guy, everyone he has scammed needs to report him. It must be the people that got scammed, not someone reporting on their behalf. Make sure all communication of the sale is in the game, the GMs tend to act upon player agreements as long as they can see it within their own system. They will not accept chat screenshot or 3rd party information (outside of game chat). Take note of the date and time of the agreement and put that information into the report as well as a directly copy/paste of what was said in chat.
