Quick Trade Scam
When someone wants to buy an item then trades you, you put the item in the trade box and they usually put a high price of 1,111,111,111 (1.1b) or the items value, then cancel and say it was an accident :/ after that they re-trade you they quickly put in 1,111,111 (1.1m)or another uneven amount and you accept quickly because you wanted the high amount of Mesos and didn't want to miss out. This also happends with the currency.
How to Avoid : Take time while trading. Its better then not losing your items.
Typing Trade Scam
Someone trades you and tells you that you can double your money and items by putting them all in the trade box then clicking trade but not accepting or declining. Then they ask you to type a word that contains "Y" usually its Maplestory but "Y" stands for yes and as soon as you type it a box appears and says "Trade Successful"
How to Avoid : Don't type anything at all .
Transfer Scams
You need to transfer all your items to a new character but you don't have any other PC's available then you ask your friends or a random person that looks nice that offer'ed to help transfer your items. As soon as you trade the items they tell you to log onto your other character and as soon as you get there they logged off already.
How to Avoid : Press "Alt" And "Enter" at the same time which makes maplestory into a smaller window version so you can open Multiple Clients.
Gold-Digger Scam
You just met this new girl and you ask her out or she asked you out then if you really like her you work hard to buy gifts and presents for her. Then when she gets what she wants she breaks up with you.
How to Avoid : Don't take online relationships too seriously on the internet and don't trust so many of your stuff with your online girlfriend.

Buy high sell higher scam
You walk around or see smega's of someone saying "Buying Tradable Msi Hat Item for 10b!. and you think hey thats a good price huh? too bad i don't have that. Then later you see someone spamming "Selling 6x Srb Hat Item" only 9b! which is a high price for this item but you could make a 1b profit so you buy it. Then you go to the Person buying the item and he/she's gone ): While the item would usually just cost about 6b so you just got Scammed.
How to Avoid : To avoid this is to realize its too good to be true .
