Holy, Cow. On October 28, 2006 I got an ICQ from one of the RP'ers on LS that said:

I certainly did not go to the web site since I'm not stupid. But I also didn't think twice about it since the guy who sent me the link is someone who I've seen tries to help the community and crafts gold armor for other people and does stuff in generous ways.
I guess I witnessed with that ICQ someone falling for a trap. I hope he and the people he sent the ICQ didn't lose anything. That's really a shame.
I wish I knew whether the guy who sent the ICQ sent it earnestly doing what he thought was a good deed, or if he was in on it. I will never know since I didn't take the link.
