The 111K scam is a scam that involves the scammer putting up 111,000 coins, then quickly replaces it with 11,000 coins before the victim can notice. This directly violates the 'Scamming' rule under Honour, and may be reported as such if encountered.
This became defunct with Jagex's update that made a red exclamation point appear whenever an item is changed or removed.
Example[]
