This is the second whip scam ive fallen for. I didn't even know the guy was gonna scam me he was lvl 101.His Scam was Perfectly executed and well i lost my whip. AGAIN. May'be god just hates nice people. Heres thte story:
Well I was having fun in duel arena with whip when this lvl 101 challenged me. He asked me to help him kill some monsters no higher than lvl 54 for his clans website and I told him " Ok ill be glad to help" he took me to kill chickens, goblins, cows etc. Then he said I should bank everything but weapon and cape to go to al karid desert. Knowing that i couldn't loose items there when I died I said ok. He said he wanted me to die on purpose. Considering ive never been to al karid desert I didn't know anywhere so i followed him. When we wewre halfway there he asked me to hold 8 marrentils for him so i did and when we got there he gave me 4 mystic robe tops as a gift. Considering I didn't know that they alched more than whip I accepted it So we entered a bar and all these guys start attacking me because of the zammy cape I had. Now I have nothing. THIS SUCKS! I didn't do anything to deserve this I mean im nice to people I give people free stuff when they need it. I gave a lvl 4 4k because he needed it, and I gave someone my only full red dhide set free.
BEWARE OF THIS SCAM.

Why I ask, did you even take time out of your way to follow this random person, of which you can't trust anyone on RS2 nowadays. Sorry that you lost your whip, but technically its your own fault.

Yep, but the other person wasnt nice too -.-

Always wear ring of life! And take tele as often as possible with you. Saves a lot money, especialy if you aren't supersmart.

It's those kind of people that make me turn down helping someone a lot of the time. Sorry about your luck and good luck getting your whip back.

I'm sorry you lost your stuff (especially a whip, that hurts) but I am glad you posted this to help the rest of us be aware of these idiots.

Scammers and cheaters spend more time thinking up ways to get things for free that it is a never-ending battle to be aware of their scams.

Ok, a few things that should've made you suspicious:

• Why would a level 101 need help in killing monsters? What is the purpose, even if it's for a clan website? Can't he do it himself?
• Why must you bank everything but the weapon and cape? You could've brought a cheaper weapon instead. If he insists on your whip, then that should've set off your detectors.
• Why did he wanted you to die on purpose? I don't think dying would impress anyone in a clan.
• Why did you accepted the gift of Mystic Robe Tops? Didn't it occured to you that you're going to die and lose them?

Good luck on your next whip.

In truth, the Mystic top scam is the oldest trick in the book. People have been doing it in Edgeville though.

Maybe you really should pay more attention to the situation and bank the whip more often. Or, get a scimitar. A LOT cheaper and with the right equipment, can rival a whip in strength damage.

Bandit Camp.

You will be attacked if you wear anything Saradoministic or Zamorakish.
