Have you tried sending over more TBT bells than you have?

Try clearing your cart in the shop!

'Your cart is currently empty' @Trundle
@mayorkiyo Not really. The only time was when I kind of had a little mini-shiver from the cold and double tapped the mouse 3 times and the other person got like 1000 bells instead of 350? not sure.

-493 Bells?
Arceus has cursed you.

Check your transaction history.

 

[Minties]

iirc this is from sending more bells than you have when people were abusing that. So they gotta send them back or you have to earn them all back?

 

[Gizmodo]

Omg its gone now though

 

[reyy]

It doesn't say anything in the transaction logs

 

[Kaiaa]

In your transaction you accidentally donated twice. This is what happens when you click multiple times when you donate. If you are sure you clicked "Submit" but the box in which you donate doesn't go away, click out of it and check your transactions before trying again. I will reimburse you for the bells lost.

 

[Silversea]

How does it let you donate into the negatives? Does it not remove the bell count you donated until the page loads? That sounds exploitable.

 

[Kaiaa]

Basically those who want to do for personal gain will be given an infraction out right. It seems that transactions don't apply until after the page loads so if you click it multiple times you transfer that many bells and put yourself deep in debt.

We can tell when it's an accident and we can tell when it's on purpose. Anyone who does it on purpose will also have their bells taken away, even if they already spent them so unless anyone feels like putting themselves in debt and getting an infraction (or suspension depending on the severity) don't try it.

Wait, I thought the person on the receiving end didn't get any bells if this happened?

 

[Jeremy]

Allowing you to donate into the negatives sometimes should be fixed in the next few days or so.

They do. That was a myth to make free bells, but it doesn't work.

Have any people actually been punished for this? Most of the people who have experienced it claim that it was an accident. I've almost personally experienced it, but I stopped the page from loading and went back a page when the transfer didn't happen immediately. So it is basically the same concept as double posting, PM/VMing, etc.?
