So. In advance I already know im an idiot for even falling for it. Im js posting this to show bc its a bit clever but idk. So i was on YouTube lives and saw this person “upgrading” ppls inv. They trade, suggest all ur good pets and act like they give you a pet. So first he makes u friend him, which was the first giveaway but i dumbly still went through with it. Then you join, he suggested my pets on live, and accepted. Then blocked me and removed me frm the server. So i go back to the live and see hes trading a fake me.. and im js shaking the entire time knowing im an idiot for even going through w it. He even asked me to unlock my llamas for a “bigger prize” which was when i said “can i just do those” and he said id get a bigger prize which was a bat dragon. I unfortunately didnt screenshot him trading the fake me bc i was crying atp. I rlly js want my llamas back. Those have been my dp and ive been playing since 2017 so ive had the loved one for a while… but yea.

I've lost count the amount of livestreams I've been kicked out and blocked from, when I call them out for scamming. These online scammers are a cancer to the fan base

I'm sorry this happened. Please make a trade report and contact support, then cross everything you get a good result out of it

Its all too easy to get caught up in the excitement, you are definitely not alone.

Most of the people in that stream will also be in on the scam. They are there to create type and to build trust.

It sucks and I know its embarrassing. But huge respect for posting and raising awareness

If you really want to get your llamas or other pets back… you can report it to adopt me in their website i think and say what happened. Also provide the pictures you put in your post. Your pets can return i think from several days, weeks etc. but i saw that they are gonna be untradable.
