A puts His SF up, and adds awesome items, then cool items, and keep adding items to the list. WHile B doesnt Notice, A Takes out his SF and all his good items, and they both Accept the trade, B without knowing. B lost and Item, A scammed, and abused the trading feature. It's such a problem on other MMO's that they arent even allowed to write the word (scam/scammer) in chat or any kind of forums, because it's such a hasle.

Except with VMK's trade system you were allowed to scroll through everything that was being offered and the other person's inventory. It wasn't just cut off. So if you're trading, and the other person is offering a lot of items, a good trader would know to actually look through and make sure nothing was taken out. And if something was taken out, ask why. In my experience, the person offering would sometimes replace an item with a higher-value one, which is not scamming.
However, if you are promised a certain item, and that item is removed while you're not looking, and you choose not to review what's being offered before accepting... unfortunately, that's your own fault.
Like Joshua suggested though, a two-accept system would help with this.
