There is something dodgy going on with trading right now where players can alter what’s in the trade window once accepted.
I don’t know how they are doing it but it’s going rampant on Dreamscythe right now.
This is just a caution to those out there to avoid trading other players that you do not know, do not get scammed.

This happened to one of our guildies. He had to put in two tickets to get his gold refunded.
absolute state of anniversary
Yes happened to a guildie as well and the person was outed on the Dreamscythe Discord with screenshots etc, someone recorded it.
Be careful trading with anyone right now
Literally just saw in chat like the 10th person getting scammed by some warlock on nightslayer lol
No surprises it’s on Nightslayer too… I’ve tried to warn people but people still getting caught out.
It’s an old trick. They wait for you to accept first. Then they quickly change something and immediately accept. The change will undo your accept, but lot of ppl just think they did something wrong or forgot to accept and get rushed by seeing the other side of the trade is green and is waiting for them accept n press accept again without double checking the change.

Yeah its definitely a form of cheating, not just scamming someone.

there was no trade bug until anniversary but yes, it probably bled into era as well
Absolutely untrue. People have been posting about this FOR YEARS.
There is a script based scam going on abusing the reduced batching window. The target puts an item in for trade, hits the green button to “trade” and when you put something in, instantly removes and accepts the trade/gold/item.
It happened to me yesterday for 10 black lotuses. It happened to another guildmate a few moments later for a stack of Flasks and it happened to several strangers standing around with various high price and high ticket items.
I petitioned blizzard and their official resp…
