A few years ago, something strange started to happen in a video game known as Old School RuneScape. The game suddenly had a number of gamers who were new to the game, and they were all performing their tasks in the same manner.

They were raking in gold through the game, but then they converted the game's gold into money through the sale of it to other players through underground websites.
