Scammer?

[Edward Edgemenace]

I'm not sure if this is still true, but if the word "account" appears anywhere in your line of chat text, the entire chat line does not go through. It *appears* to go through on your side, but no recipients get it. (If you have a computer capable of running multiple pirates, you can confirm this by having one of your pirates talk to the other while you watch.)

Assuming that is still a "super-restricted" keyword that Disney prohibits, it is unlikely the "scammer's" text all made it through - equally unlikely that he saw the majority of your responses. If I were in your situation, I probably would have hit the report button, anyhow. That way, Disney gets to decide if it really is against their rules AND he would be auto-ignored for the rest of my session.

Kind of off-topic: I really wish Disney would change their handling of "super-restricted" keywords such as "account", "e-mail", "number" or "telephone". Instead of simply eliminating the chat line, they should pop up a warning similar to the warning you get when you type the "F" word. Something like "The COPA regulations prevent us from allowing your message to go through. Please review the Terms Of Service. Adult topics may not be discussed with minors. Further attempts at this type of communication may be reported to local police or the FBI." But however stern the warning, at least let people know when their chats DID NOT GO THROUGH.

How many times have you said "Hang on, I'm on the phone" and come back to find that nobody heard your chat? No warning, no nothing.
