Preventing Scam & Proving a Scam

Okay Seeing as how some people have been going around reporting scams but dont have any proof on it, here are a couple of ways you can save proof of how you got scammed.

Providing Proof Of The Accused's Identity.

Lucky for us NetworkTemple allows you to create your own custom folder, i myself have one to keep important messages safe, in this folder you should keep a PM from the person who scammed you giving you their E-Mail Address.(It also gives proof of any scams done through PMS & Prevents you from accidentally deleting the message)

Heres how to make it:

1. Go to User CP
2. Scroll down to Private Messages
3. There should be a "custom folders" section
4. add a folder and name it "Things to Save"
5. you should now have another folder

Using the Folder

1. Find the message you wish to save in your private messages list
2. Tick the box next to it
3. go to the bottom and select, "Move to folder...."
4. move it to the folder you are saving your things in.

If you wish you can also save the message into your computer using the same method, but instead of using the "move to folder" option select one of the "download as..." options

Saving Your Message Logs Using Windows Messenger

This in itself is the most important part of evidence you can provide as it allows people to see what happened in the trade itself. Also i recommend you ONLY USE WINDOWS MESSENGER FOR TRADES AND ALWAYS USE A MIDDLEMAN.

Setting Up Automatic Message Logging
1. Go to Options In Messenger.
Screenshot on where to find "Options"



2. Go To Messages, find "Message Logging"

Screenshot On how to find "Message Logging"



3. Select "Automatic Message Logging"
4. Choose a Destination For the logs to be saved.

Preventing E-Mail Scam
Prevent this by:
-going to hotmail.com
-go to the top right,
-select options
-select "Edit account info"
-change to whatever you please, delete any other emails they can retrieve with and change recovery question
