Warning: New Scam Vendor, pretending to be O*S

Warning to everyone.

It was brought to my attention that someone has set up a vendor between Yew Moongate and Yew Bank that is scamming the player base by selling empty spellbooks while claiming they are full. I would believe this scam extends to the supposedly full runebooks that are likely empty as well.

All players should only shop at reputable vendor locations, and also bring a character with the item id skill to verify that listed full spellbooks are actually full.

The only O*S vendor shop currently sanctioned on this shard is the one North of Skara Brae bank as seen in my forum signature. Any other vendor houses claiming to be O*S are frauds and should be a red flag that you cannot trust what is available for sale in these fraud homes.

Good find Bixby, who was the person that was ripped off? I will offer them their money back for this one.

It was a member of the NEW guild who was ripped off. I've already given a full spellbook at no cost to the person who alerted me.

I saw Dyne stocking this vendor earlier with empty spellbooks!

Don't believe the propaganda.

If Azheman saw it, it must be true.

what's funny about this is that these two guys are in a guild and have a conversation on the forums as if they never talk.
