Some might, but if you gain a loyal following (lol), the one person who tries to scam will usually be shunned/killed by the rest of the server (I've had it happen before and it was hysterical).

Also, a technique I've seen used is bringing out the items from your backpack without placing them (I have no idea what it's actually called) so that people can see which item you have, and have the other side do the same with their payment. Then you both place the items down and forage them.

Usually the ones who try to scam aren't that experienced with the game (at least in my experiences, but I might be wrong to generalize) as many of the advanced players can end up getting a lot of the resources themselves.
