Default Potential Trade Scam

This is similar to the Ecto and Mursaat Token thing, these look very similar at a glance



The Scale item item is on the left, the amulet is on the right.

I know 99.9% of players mouse over the item in the trade screen, but I am just posting this just in case.

Before you ask, no, I didn't have this done to me

amulet is an item you get at the end of factions, you can then talk to a couple of NPCs and exchange them for some nifty greens (for 'free' no less) each character is allowed 1 amulet, and it seems some people have decided to sell them

the npc's are located in the divine path explorable area after defeating shiro.

I believe anyone who gets scammed deserves it, stupidity should be a crime and at least this way they pay.

Whether they deserve it or not, it is still good to point out.
