I remember one time when I was still new to the game I found some precious metal ore veins for the first time, smelted them up and had my first ever load of gold and silver. I was just hermitting at the time and didn't have all the stats and tools needed to make something really good from them, so I wanted to make a deal and trade with somebody who could craft them into a high quality ring for me. I met up with razzbane in game after he DMd me over and over again promising that he would hook me up. He seemed to be posting pretty often in the community, so I believed him and I went to meet him at the market.
I dropped the gold and silver into a crate in a trading area and he took them and immediately logged out. It was a little sudden, so I DMd him in Discord and he answered, "sorry, my grandma just died irl, I have to go. I'll make you the ring tomorrow."
I didn't think anybody would lie about such a thing, so I assumed it was an unfortunate coincidence and waited until the next day and sent him another message. Razzbane responded with a picture of him standing near an old lady laying in an open casket. It was a really shocking picture. I didn't want to press further so I left it alone.
A week later, another one of the polish people in the community shared a news article about a local teenage boy poisoning his own grandmother and killing her. I recognized the woman in the news article as the old lady in the picture that razzbane sent me. The disturbing reality sank in ... this was her.
Over the following weeks more news was revealed and it turned out that razzbane killed his own grandma in order to have an excuse to scam me out of 4 gold bars and 2 silver bars.
I was so shocked I didn't even bother to message him back. I was sure he would be going to jail soon. I don't know how the law in poland works, but I was very surprised to see him around in the community in the years after this event. How did he get away with murder?
Razzbane is definitely a legend in this community. A legendary scammer. I learned my lesson about trusting razzbane that day, and I know many other people have as well.
