Okay this guy asked me to join a guild. He gave me 1s I think and some SBL medium quality.
Then he said "Once you join the guild, we can donate to you. Would you like a Fiesta store item? Here's the tricky part. You have to trust me. I have to log into your account. It's the only way."
So what should I do with this guy? I bet he scammed many because some people actually fall for that I bet.
And also, what if the money he gave me was hacked? Will I get in trouble? What do I do?? Please tell me, I meant no harm to anyone.

He couldn't hack in game money. If you have a screen shot of him saying the stuff about your login, PM it to the GM of Teva.

He'll probably take your account and blah blah blah.. Was it Ace guild? I heard they've scammed a few people with a similar method..

What he is doing is a direct violation of TOS rules. Never trust anyone with your account information, no matter what they "offer" you. This person is doing nothing but getting ready to jack your account out of your hands. If you allow this it will probably end up being banned or you'll be locked out from it while he makes off with whatever is on it.
Avoid at all costs. It IS to good to be true.

I gave Sparkcash to some friends for the holidays but that sounds like a definite scam.

Well, I guess it's to be said, that's what you can expect from MoonTree.

I knew it was a scam the minute I saw it. But maybe I should pretend that I want to join his guild just so I can get free stuff from him... And then report him. Because he gave me 1s and some SBL (medium quality) a day before he even mentioned this scam.
I'll get him to say those things again....

I know elgood... He's very friendly!!HE'S DEFINTLY NOT AN "SCAMMER"!!!
He has giving me some sparkcash too once!.. You don't even need to logg out from what he said !!...You can stay on Fiesta.. And just let that Window open where you can change you're own password! .. if that's open.. and He say's to you it's done.. just look into you're sparkcash.. you can just easily go to you're browser and change you're password again.. i've done the same !!!.. Don't just judge ppl this fast.. I hope you all change you're mind about this.. if not just pm me IG DestinationNL and talk to me.. and pls don't call him an scammer anymore since he ISN'T ONE !!!!!
Ty for you're time... Please any1 lock this because he ain't an scammer ( btw delete this thread! ) this is giving someone an fake/bad reputation! So he can't even have fun anymore in game now!

I understand y people might think you tried to scam but before accusing at least get more info about that person, i know elgood myself as well, and he is a very nice and friendly person, he is friends with a lot of nice people, therefore if he was a jerk he wouldn't have befriended so many nice people.
BEFORE U actually start saying, i should report him, or trying to get him in his trouble, for crying out loud plz get more evidence or more info about that person. elgood is a nice person and he wouldn't scam u :).
NEXT time bro, don't be so nice to random people, cuz it might prove is not worth it :), just like this time :)

What he did was NOT a scam...and what he did was a wonderful gesture for our guild. And i had no issue giving him my log in and password, and actually i trust this person so much, that i still have not changed my password. So think what you want to, but what he did for our guild was nice on his part, something that he did out of the kindness of his heart. Some people arent like that anymore and everyone assumes that people are just out to screw you over, and Goodie just isnt like that.

I also have a few friends pull some strings for me on other characters, if they keep anything I pre-screenshot our conversation and use it against them.

Sigh....well its understandable that you think its a scam yea, but lets set it straight that elgood is not a scammer (as ppl here are already lol). He is doing for his fellow guildmates, because he cares about us. He is a wonderful person, anyone who tries to say different will have to deal with me *cracks fists* lol >.<.
