punch her in the face then
or buy hybrids off somebody here
why do people say 'he/she' instead of them its much easier
this is why you dont leave your town unattended, no matter how much you trust the people whos in your town
one day, get the motivation to pick up all your junk and put it away
prob not all at once if picking up some stuff is too much for you
taking time to do that will be worth it esp if scammers/thieves come in or whatever

I'm trying to get the train station upgrade too :c we can help each other if you'd be okay with that!
I've never had problems with people running in my town so far but there's always that risk with multiple people over at once. I try to only have one person at a time but sometimes people showing up un-invited during the middle of a trade is impossible to avoid. Just saving and quitting to end the session then having the other person come back later, I guess.
I wouldn't mind that~ Just need to find my 3DS charger >~>, and yea, I only do one person at a time now because of that.
You can talk to Porter to close the gate after the person you want to trade with has arrived. That way, no other visitors will show up.
Almost scammed just now and my heart is still racing :C this user on here is running a shop and halfway through dropping bells i asked where my items were, she said in front of her house, she starts leading me then tried to end. I barely flicked the switch in time...i can't believe it. Now i'm being harrassed in a PM

Honestly think my trading days are going to be on hold for a bit...no more trading with newbies with less than 5 wifi ratings

still looks really bad though and i'm upset about it..i already asked the user to discuss things peacefully but they told me they hated me etc.
I'm sorry to hear that
I would be upset if I got a bad rating, too. You should contact a mod about it if you haven't already.

Looking at that user's profile VM, it's pretty darn obvious they are scammers, or at least incredibly shady.
Don't bother reasoning, cos you can't, and shouldn't waste more time on the likes of them.
Just put them on your ignore list and move on?
Also, what are the mods' explanation on this?
It can't possibly be your fault that some shady user's trying to scam you.
The other user in that thread had the same thing happened to them after they dropped payment, I think.
Working on it now..unfortunately couldn't get it resolved right away, discussing things now with the user. Hoping to get it removed.

disregard it's being worked out
I've never been scammed, but I'm pretty sure I accidentally scammed someone once. It was when I was new to selling villagers. But it wasn't completely my fault.
Hmm, actually I've been almost scammed once. I was going to get the gorgeous set from someone, and they were doing another trade with someone for the sweets set. The person had the other person drop the bells first, and then when I got to their town (and on the way there it automatically saved the game), the host kicked both of us out. The other person got scammed out of 1.6 mil bells, and I was really shocked because had it been me, I would have been scammed out of more than 2 million. The host got my hopes up, too, because I had been looking for the gorgeous set for awhile. I was really disappointed :/
Not to mention, this person made several other accounts to try to sell sets to scam other people. He got banned on here, thank goodness.

why do people do it? HAVE THEY NO SOUL?
ok that's a bit intense sorry
but it's still pretty low to feel the need to scam somebody for items/money in a videogame where possibilities are endless. it's not like they're getting real money out of it.. and even if they were, that's a horrible way to go about doing things..
irl scams = legal troubles
