I was fishing in Catherby when Smsquirrel32 started asking for money since he'd been scammed. I asked him if he could tell me more and he said some guy led him to a forest and told him he could duplicate money by dropping it and pressing Alt-F4. I asked if he knew the guy's name and he told me it was "Imfromtexas" so I decided to investigate.
Here's my conversation with him:

Next time I see Smsquirrel on, I'll ask him if he got his money back... we'll figure things out from there, I suppose.
If he ends up returning the money, would this count as preventing a scam?
Those who will remember, will speak fondly of the warm morning breeze.
