- Ok well let's start off with a legit lobby host will "NEVER" beg for you to pay for a lobby. As a "RETIRED" jtagger(RED RING OF DEATH) if you don't want to pay formy lobby i will just kick you out of my game because i have other "WORTHY" customers that are willing to pay me.
- A trick to lure a "JTAGGER SCAMMER" is to tell them you have a 1600 MSP card and see what they say if you ignore them and they start to beg and get you to join there lobby and are CONSTANTLY bothering you chances are they are a scammer
- This is probably the "BEST" way to figure out if someone is trying to scam you into there lobby ok first ask what kind of bootloader they run(Correct Answer=XEX LOADER) and ask them what type of jtag they have(Correct Answer=Xenon,Falcon,Jasper or falcon) if they make up an excuse or don't know it's a lie for sure
- Also if you have a bad feeling about the guy if he has incorrect grammar(EXAMPLES
K,PlZ,hOW MUcH r u WIlLing To PaY?) or anyother flaws he's probably a scammer
- And lastly if he has a low rep,new to the site or a low post count this could also tell you if a person is a scammer but these are not always correct somepeople might just make a new account so they can advertise there lobbys but just go with your gut feeling!!
- Also when using paypal DO NOT pay until you get into the lobby ok
- IF YOUR BUYING A XBOX THAT HAS BEEN JTAGGED *READ*
If you would like to see if someone Kv's (KEYVAULT) to see if it is banned just to make sure your not buying a banned kv just open up the keyvault in *notepad*/*hexeditor* and look for the serial number then register the serial number here You must login or register to view this content. and request a repair and if it gives you an error it's most likeley banned so yeah I've seen people selling banned kv's so just letting you guys know

Its really funny now when people say they can do lobbies and I ask them what JTAG they are using and they quickly say Xenon. Then I ask what Bootloader they have and they say XEX Loader. This thread has allowed alot of people to know how to answer these questions to. I think asking them what kind of Motherboard they have, or just a few more questions helps to sort out scammers and people who are legit.
