RuneScape allows anyone to set upFree RuneScape Accounts and play their java based RPG so long as they are over 13. A 10 year old can easily sign up and say they are 13 so really, ANYONE can get free RuneScape Accounts. This is a good introduction to young people or those new to RPG wanting to get into a worldwide massive membership RPG (role playing game).
There is no end to this game. It's up to the user to decide what they want to do with it. For many, this means becoming as bad ass as possible by increasing experience and achieving high skill levels.
There is an economy to the RuneScape game. RS Gold is earned by completing various tasks, but it can take time. Many Runescape members are looking to buy rs gold and get large amounts of money with minimal or no work. They want to either find someone who will give them a free RuneScape account, or the want someone to give them tools, buy rs gold, etc. to make their exsisting RuneScape account better and their RS Gold accounts better.

There are many ways people will try and scam others on RuneScape. One in particular encourages RuneScape members to send specific info to a e-mail account.
It claims that if you send the following, you will be granted access to another account for free.
- your account name
- The name of an account your wish to hack or take over
- and your password
The scam usually involves a request for extra information such as
123214### %##% youraccountname %%43245$
123214### %##% accountnameyouwishaccessto %%43245$
123214### %##% yourpassword %%43245$
The point of this is to fool the person about to be hacked into believing that this randomness is required as some sort of code to get into the Runescape website and gain access to the information.
It's a pathetic attempt but many fall for it even despite the fact the email is usually something as lame as freerunescapeaccount@yahoo.com
Free RuneScape Money Ads On Message Boards
It would seem simple to others to never give someone
else your password to anything online. It's not this
obvious for others. Regardless of age or Internet
experience, RuneScape is a game for everyone, even
those that are easily taken advantage of by not
being aware of online scamming.
Players are being scammed by others with a alluring advertisement such as more RS Gold. On RuneScape message boards for players, people will claim they are longtime RuneScape players with huge amounts of RS Gold, tools, etc.. They have decided they are tired of playing RuneScape, and that they are going to give away the millions of free RS Gold.
Young kids and inexperience Internet users can easily fall for this free RS Gold scam. These "players" sound quite convincing. They are going off to college, their girlfriend won't let them play anymore, they are looking to do something different and want to spread goodwill. Most of us wouldn't by this for a second but people do fall for this.
The generous player giving away free RS Gold asks
for the other players name and password (They will
also ask for your bank pin if you have one). Some
specify that they only want to give away to regular
players and not new members. They may claim they
hate newbs. What they really want is players that
have been doing this forever so that they can get
the most from there account as possible.
To make it look like everyone else is already doing it, they will create other aliases with fake player names and passwords and post them on the message board as if they were responders.
This really does work and is quite profitable for the scammer. Instead of giving you free RS Gold, they go into your RuneScape account and clear out everything that they can take. Not just your RS Gold, but everything that you have in your RuneScape account.
WHY?
For some, the thrill of the steal. For those with ill intentions its a great way for them to learn to love the thrill of scamming someone else. It's not hard to scam a kid or a grown adult who knows nothing about password security and what others can do to your accounts out of their RS Gold.
These scammers can sell and trade what they collect from those they scam and turn a real profit. Even on Ebay, RuneScape accounts, RS Gold, and other RuneScape items are sold for real cash.
