Now I've looked on the modded lobby section trying to get a lobby and just see what patches people are using what what not. And I see these kinds of posts so much.
Post -
This annoys me so much because if you're gonna scam somebody please at least put some effort into it. I used to scam kids sooooo much (don't judge. I don't anymore) and I'd try my hardest to convince people I could provide them with what they wanted. And it worked the majority of the time. Kids just need to stop being so lazy. I'm not trying to encourage people to scam harder and try to scam more, but come on people. I simple video of any modded lobby on the post would work or even just make the post look more official and make the title cooler looking. Which leads me to my next point of people that fall for this kind of scams. Why do you post legit if you haven't even been invited? Like I get their leeching hard but still. When I was hosting a few years ago somebody posted "Legit Plzzz inv. GT: xxOpT1cL3gittxx", and I didn't invite him purely because he posted legit before getting into my lobby. I could of used his vouch to scam a little kid out of a 1600 code, but I didn't.
Basically what this rant comes down to is laziness. If you're going to do something do it right. It's so lazy to not make a post more detailed. Like dude you are looking at a screen, it can't take too much effort.
*This post I used as an example MAY have been legit, but I am 99.999% sure it was a scam.
**Sorry you read all this, it probably will seem beyond stupid and pointless to more than half the people who read it.

Please don't encourage people to try hard at scamming, we have enough of this lingering around. Let them be lazy because it's even easier to depict between legit and scammer.
Though it doesn't affect me, because I don't do anything that requires someone else's trust over the internet anymore, such as Modded Lobbies and such. Unfortunately I've been scammed twice, both equaling to 3200 Microsoft Points, and It's not fun.
It would be better suited if the scammers got a job and got a taste of the effort it takes to supply those Microsoft points that they stolen. It's like taking $20 and throwing it into the shredder, in which is better off because some little kid doesn't have access to it. It just annoys me, people that do that same stuff in the real world, and get put behind bars for it. But a 13 year old can get away with it because he/she does it virtually.
