"The Noted item swapping scam is often seen, especially in worlds 1, 2 and 3. This scam is performed by the scammer offering a noted item and sometimes lots of other useless items. The buyer offers the money, and at the last second, the scammer switches the noted item for a similar looking item. Since the noted items would look so similar, the player often falls for it and the scammer gets the money. This often occurs with logs, ores, noted armour and weapons. This scam has become mostly obsolete, as the trade screen notifies you if someone changes an item, and the value of the changed item is also displayed on the trade screen. In addition, it can no longer be performed with weapons and armour, as different tiers of armour and weapons now have significantly different appearances, even when noted. The punishment for those caught engaging in this scam is typically a short-term mute or ban, with repeat offenders receiving longer punishments. It can be reported using the \"Scamming\" option under Honour,"@en . "The Noted item swapping scam is often seen, especially in worlds 1, 2 and 3.
