Default BeWARE New SCAM!

Yes.. I fell victim to a scammer and it was 80,000g. I bought an Un-opened Birthday Present, only to reveal a Fungal Wallow... it was an old present... Watch out everyone buying unopened presents.

The presents now reveal the birthday number.

For example, the 1st year presents now say "for your 1st birthday!" as additional information.

So you scammed yourself.

The fact that it was 80k should have altered you. Like zinger said, It even says "2nd year birthday present".

You live and you learn

Don't ever be too quick to buy anything..
And 80k for 2nd B-day present? You're not the only "clever" person in the GW world.

Ok, happens. So for all that read this, please note that it says "2nd birthday" in the present popup for 2nd year birthday gifts (top left corner of the screenshot):
