(1) How to identify real gm?
(a) Check our help page (http://lmspw.com/help.php) for GM's names on both server.

(b) When a GM message you, you'll receive a message like this:
E.g : "GM: Hi, this is LMS."
You'll have to reply to LMS in the following way, using a forward slash and the GM name:
E.g: "/LMS Hello."
Note: There's only ONE GM LMS in game. Be aware of it.

(c) GMs WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR ACCOUNT DETAILS (USERNAME, PASSWORD, ETC) IN GAME!

(d) If you believe a player is impersonating a GM, please notify a GM by either 'Step (A)' or via the ingame 'HELP' button, or take screen shots and email to lmsperfectworld@gmail.com.


(2) Never give or share password / items to anyone in or out of game.

(3) Verify item description & details when you exchanging for items in a trade, to make sure they are the correct item your going for before accepting.
E.g: Duration time for Flight Preview.

(4) Please use LM$ Silver Coins in trade when the value of the trade is more than 200mil. LM$ Silver Coins can be sold to an NPC to get back gold from these coins in
game.
Note: 1 LM$ Silver Coins = 19,000 gold ingame.

I would like to add something here if i may....
Last summer trade window had a title such as "you are trading with <<name of player>>. Now i do not have the name of the one i trade with mentioned in my trade window. If players are in crowded places there is the risk of trading with the wrong person and this way losing the items that they have.
I request that GM would make it possible again for the players to see who they are trading with.
Thank you!

Another thing you can do is the following:

1. Team with the person you are trading with (expand chat window fully)
2. Discuss trade in team chat window including the names and quantities of each item
3. Go to a secure location and drop the items on the floor one by one allowing the teamed person to pickup
4. Each item is then registered as being picked up in the chat window of whom picked up the items.

That way you can keep a track of the chat itself and the items picked up by a person.

Even if the items span across two screenshots its still a good way to track as the trade window (as Vyp mentioned) does not contain the name of the person you are trading with.

Its something i've tried and tested before, its not exactly ideal but it helps when identifying any fraudulent behaviours.

It's not an ideal way to do it, but its the only traceable way and doing it one item at a time does give some security.

Dropping all items at once can definitely cause a headache if game dc's and/or crashes.

Which also brings me to my point of going to a secure location to do the drop, somewhere nobody would go. Like underwater somewhere completely random.

Until trade window bug is fixed, I tend to do things by teaming and dropping mostly.

still, this is not the safe way to do tradings. >.< if your client crashes, or you get disconnected, who knows?

just to add a few, I've seen a fake Fausto with the name FaustoLMSPW (how I know he is fake? his english sucked real bad unlike the real GM and has no avatar pict and logged off as soon as me and a couple friends stated he was fake) a couple of time at the LMSPW chatbox at the mainsite. just wanna post this so readers will be extra cautious that GM scammers don't only happen ingame and can happen on the chatbox. that fake GM can obtain someone's login ID and password by asking the player in need of help at the LMSPW chatbox, so remember that GMs NEVER ask login IDs. hope this little piece of info is useful, best regards.
