Why Mesos Trading Service (MTS) is unsafe?

Autor duststar

In previous post, I wrote about the comparison between Maple Trading System and Mesos Trading Service. Now, let us probe deeper into why Mesos Trading Service is unsafe.

Exploitation #1: Via meet-up with “laptop service”

Usually the seller will claim to provide “laptop service” where they will meet up with the buyer and perform the trade using seller’s laptop (there will a mule on-standy to trade the mesos with the buyer) and finally the seller will collect the cash payment from buyer after successful trade. So, what is the problem? The buyer got the mesos anyway.

The seller’s laptop is probably installed with a keylogger to begin with, and has log down the buyer’s login credentials as the buyer keys in the details.

Wait. What if the buyer brings their own laptop? Well. The buyer can bring their own laptop but that does not reduce the risk of being keylogged. The seller simply needs to come out with a fake motive to access the buyer’s labtop for example, to login his mule to verify mesos amount. Have another person to distract buyer’s attention. Plugs in a thumbdrive that auto install a keylogger when plugged into the buyer’s labtop. Unplugs the thumbdrive.

And , trust me. Buyer usually lower their gaurd when seller propose “meet up” because the sense of security is higher compared to performing internet banking and risking the seller running away.

Exploitation #2: Via meet-up at LAN shop

Similar to Exploitation #1, would a buyer assumes that using a computer in a LAN shop is safe? The answer is NO! A computer at LAN shop can still be compromised and installed with a keylogger.

Comps at cyber Cafe also have keyloggers. I asked my cousin who owns a lan shop… he says GOT… so never ever play at lan shops..

Exploitation #3: Make payment over website first while we get our sales to contact you

Let see this example.

hi, i am a player from Cassiopeia maplestory, recently i buy 1b mesos with www.seagm.com. It a advertiser from fm and selling mesos with very cheap rate compare with other, it only RM0.34/m,
i call them and telling them i just bank in RM RM 340, they ask me to wait at fm ch7m, after 30minute i waiting, i still unable to get my mesos,
i call up them, they telling me mesos just out of stock, and ask me to wait for 2month to get my mesos, i feel i being scam, my friend told me
this website is a pro scammer website due to last time he being scam buying powerleveling but i choose not to believe him~ someone can please help me!

Would a buyer assumes that the seller will definitely fulfill what they promise?

Exploitation #4: Internet banking – Send money first, trade later

Similar to Exploitation #3, all “send money first, trade later” runs risk of seller running away after getting money! Be it giving out A-cash prepaid card’s code first, or internet bank-in money first, or ATM deposit money first, or gift cash shop items first. It does not matter. Such trade is insecure and one risks getting scammed.

So as a closure to this post, where do you want to buy mesos today?
