I don't know if it's just me...

Every time I see an account made 2-5 days ago (low posts) and betting 1000+ NMT on Raymond or ridiculous amounts on other villagers.. I just feel they are people who've hacked in NMT or cheated in some way of form.

Like.. I understand some people have legitimately gotten lots of NMT, I for one have 220.. But over 1k + on fresh accounts on the fourms? Come on...

Okay, so I'm not the only one noticing that??? Okay, I'm not going crazy. Thank Tom Nook.

There are so many "new-ish" accounts popping up just dumping NMT as if it was nothing.

I don't trust really new users that much in general when it comes to trading. I'd never risk a big trade with a newbie on this site.

100% agree. If I was for example auctioning off Raymond, I think I'd only take bets/offers from people who look like they are meant to be on this forum, ie, gave themselves an avatar, have a couple of posts in other threads that aren't ONLY in the auction side.

Whoa, I just had a thought... what if they're fake bids to artificially raise the price?!

That has actually crossed my mind just then reading another Raymond auction.
