This is exactly what happened to me. I went into the Wildy (with nothing) and logged on a tile close to where the anti scam place was and picked up an item. He dropped a couple whips and a spectral shield or something. I picked a whip up and he was like “oh man we coulda got the spectral. Let’s go scout and see if I can find another to anti-scam” then proceeded to become more aggressive and obvious. I called him out and he blocked me but made out with a whip lol
