Default Important!!!! Scammerrs not only in kinz chat plus!!!!

Recent complantes from my friends in real life are about scammers!! My friends are comlaining that they are falling for food items. They would put a super bed out and they would say I want rare items. The person who is trading keeps putting food out and that convinces them that it is rare! But this is NOT kinz chat plus but ordinary kinz chat! I went to kinz chat plus and over heard a dog saying that she was in regular kinz chat and the person kept putting out a food item that looked like a bed, she traded a super bed for it. SO not only my friends are complaining about it but other people too! It is harder to scam in kinz chat BUT it is still effective, Picture this: You put a trophy out and say I want to trade for some rare items, the person keeps putting out food that looks like furinture, and in the end you are convinced that it is rare!!! I fell for it too! A food item looked like a pool and I traded my candy bash trophy for it!! SO BE AWARE!!!! Not as effective but more scammers will realize that you can scam in kinz chat!! It will be harder but beaware!

Aren't there captions that appear when you put your mouse over the items, so that you know what the item is? Like if I put my mouse over a rare item, it will say "Luxury Hot Tub - Rare Items," or "Gas Pump - Exclusive Items." If it doesn't say that, then it's either food, wshop, or retired, but it cannot be rare or exclusive without saying so. Just a little tip for next time so you don't think something is rare when it is food.

It should come up with a pop-up that says the items being traded aren't fair to you and yours are worth more than theirs, so they shouldn't be getting scammed for food. It should also say what the item is, like if it's a food or an exclusive etc. So they really need to be paying attention.
