My 2ndgen pet was stolen by glitch/bug, please help

[Minoru]

Zankza, my 2nd gen STR pet has been robbed by a bug or glitch with trading. I did not know there was a bug or glitch people are using to steal peoples items. Many people are ignorant to this including me, I am "Minoru" who lost this pet in one of these bugs. The acc name of the stealer and glitcher is "HpSnikerS". If you check history of both chars logs, you will see that no money was ever traded or no account sharing has taken place. I lost my 2nd get pet lvl 10 str that had std rec and novice medi. I have been playing for almost 2 months now and have enjoyed my experience thus far. In this time I've been playing I have never heard of this before or received a warning of some support, I am somewhat a new player so I didn't know. I was very ignorant to the glitch and didnt know it was possible, I do not know if you are aware of it but if you aren't I will further explain it in my next post. Please check logs of both accounts "Minoru"and " HpSnikerS" to see that no money was ever traded or no acc's were shared. I worked very hard and malled many times in the game to acquire this pet. Please help me in recovering my pet and thank you very much for your time. Warning to all players, do not follow trade or stall instructions from anyone because you will lose an item somehow without pressing confirmt/trade.

this hpsnikers is trying to some trick on me too. idk how he do it but he know how to trick stall bug people. he wants me too stall my pet and coin then he want to put the pet on other slot before stalling lucky I didn't follow I might end up like the 1 who put this topic . it happen before 12midnight when he pm me.beware on that ------------------ hpsnickers -------------------!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Minoru]

Well, then, I suppose so.

 

[Zankza]

Basically what happened is that you stalled your fairy for 1G and stalled fairy coin for 99,999,999G. As soon you stalled, he purchased your 2gen fairy for 1G.

 

[Zankza]

Were you by any chance using tweaks? perhaps different skins?

 

[macky]

I think that's wht he is doing that's why he asking me to do that way but I didn't do

 

[macky]

yes me I use dif. skin

 

[Kolera]

risks of using tweaks... easy as that..

 

[Minoru]

Yeah, that's what happened, can you do something about it?

 

[Minoru]

i have no skin or tweak

 

[Minoru]

I have no tweaks or skin. My pko game is untouched.

I remember a scammer on ToP used to do that and I almost fell for it, though I backed out last second. I really can't remember how it works, but yes, it exploits a "bug" or what should be considered unintended behavior by somehow switching the prices of a good item (Pet or some gear generally) which you originally stall for 99,999,999 and a coin or any random item which you stall for 1g. It's been years since I was almost tricked by it but if I remember, it has something to do with some weird item swaps or engaging in trade while setting stall. Perhaps OP or someone who got scammed as well could give more info on how it's done.

And P.S. I'm 99% sure it has nothing to do with skins, as this scam would otherwise be very unreliable and I don't remember having a skin when this happened to me back on ToP.
