how should they know that there is no way back if you loaned something?

i know several who did
I did once as well - luckily just a basic pattern shirt and some paints.
But the shirt was the first gift I was given ingame and being scammed out of that act of kindness hurt worse than the loss of a few PEDs.

It's pretty much like the outside world in here - a few pieces of s**t and a lot of good people. The trouble is telling who is who :/
