The plugin is available on the plugin hub now under "Unbalanced Trade Prevention". Many thanks to StonedTurtle for the collab and the RuneLite review board for approving it. Get the plugin yourself and recommend to friends to prevent scams!

Do not do this. Do not interact with scammers at all, in fact. The only way to not get scammed is to completely ignore these scammers

thank you funny turtle with funny hat :)

Definitely needs an exemption list so you can add items that you won't accept (regardless of value in trade).

Incredible as always!!! Thanks for partnering with us, you're the best!! 💙🎧

Awesome job! I do think that price manipulation risk needs to be highlighted more. A lot of people won’t watch the whole thing or won’t understand that part, and will be too reliant on the plug-in. The best thing to do for people who aren’t willing to risk, is to not trade scammers in the first place.

I love this relationship you and Jagex have forged to take down these scamming losers. It's a beautiful thing to see!

This whole scam wouldn't be an issue if Jagex just makes it so when a change happens in the trade screen, there is a timeout before either one can click accept

This really is a fantastic thing you've done. It's not just great for anti-scamming.... but for EVERYONE to use in the same way as skull prevention.

Plot twist. Plugin is made to not work with certain usernames and KempQ will wait until everyone starts using and organize a heist like in Ocean Eleven and take everyones gp overnight and run to Bahamas.

the runescape community should make this video go viral. tbis plugin is a lifesaver!

[clearhit]

just an idea to stop the possibility of price manipulation items, maybe stop the trade if the majority of a trades value is a low trade volume item?

[VengefulSul]

Props to you, turtle, and the Jagex team for making this a thing. Thanks for continuing to do Armadyl's work, man 🤟

The best way to not get scammed is to stop interaction once you see suspicious behavior. The way they get you is by getting you to overcome your wariness.

A small warning to people using this plugin to protect themselves, scammers can still add "valuable" worthless items to make it look like you gain money (G.E. Price-wise), even though the items you receive will be unsellable.
