Kushbro (Allen Alford) - Recalled account. Spent 60+ on gold and WoWtime

[Cow King]

User Kushbro and I traded accounts a few days ago, and I believe he has recalled the account. Here is the trading thread

I did not open this ticket, and now do not have access to the account, and am out almost $60 bucks spent on the trade. The character also has new activity which is not my own. I just want this resolved or the user banned. He is not responding to any AIM's.

User has responded to AIM. Attempting to resolve. Will post with updates.

Kushbro has provided me with a replacement account until he has figured out what happened with the compromised account. Will keep updated.

 

[EpicNPC]

Ok, since you have a replacement account, I will close this in 48 hrs if there are no more updates.

I am the OO of this paladin, Stevieshae traded me a warrior for my paladin. I had the warrior for a day or so, paid for a transfer went to work and when i returned home he had recalled the account.

So I spoke with him.

Stevieshae 9:00 pm
hey i have an auctial oo ruth hunter if ur intrested

He wouldn't help me, wouldn't answer questions or respond. I took my paladin back.

 

[Cow King]

Would really like Kushbro to input in on this. If the warrior account can be recovered, all of this can be fixed easily.

 

[EpicNPC]

Stevieshae = kushbro

dry3ras3pen is OO of paladin

dry3ras3pen trades paladin to kushbro for warrior
Kushbro trades paladin to ssmith297 for druid

kushbro contacts dry3ras3pen saying pally was lost and wants warrior back (oct 27)
dry3ras3pen then contacts kushbro saying warrior was recalled (oct 28)
dry3ras3pen then recalls paladin (when?)

dry3ras3pen has pally
kushbro has druid & warrior
ssmith297 has replacement account from kushbro


1) ssmith297 what was the date of the email above?
2) kushbro when you first contacted dry3ras3pen saying your friend lost the paladin, why didn't you ask dry3ras3pen to help recover it? Instead you asked for your warrior back.

kushbro has been notified.

I have traded accounts and the oo for some reaso took them back in ssmith case i provided a new account

---------- Post added 11-01-2011 at 07:19 PM ----------

But i never recalled any accounts

 

[Cow King]

Notification dated was the 27th, I believe. Account I received is now banned for multiple recalls and IP changes. Let these two decide what they want to do with their accounts they recalled. I'm not dealing with losses any more and am pulling out because I don't want to waste any more of my time.

 

[EpicNPC]

Please post a screenshot of the email with the date being visible.

I have traded accounts and the oo for some reaso took them back in ssmith case i provided a new account

That doesn't make sense, please clarify.

 

[Kushbro]

Banned - To many accounts

I have traded accounts with other members like this and the oo for what ever reason just took the account back without contacting me

 

[Cow King]

 

[dry3ras3pen]

get on aim, i will give you priest back no problem. Can we please get this kid banned?

 

[EpicNPC]

Stevieshae = kushbro

dry3ras3pen is OO of paladin

dry3ras3pen trades paladin to kushbro for warrior
Kushbro trades paladin to ssmith297 for druid

kushbro contacts dry3ras3pen saying pally was lost and wants warrior back (oct 27)
dry3ras3pen then contacts kushbro saying warrior was recalled (oct 28)
dry3ras3pen then recalls paladin (Oct 30)

dry3ras3pen has pally
kushbro has druid & warrior
ssmith297 has replacement account from kushbro

The ticket shows the Pally was recalled on the 30th, so I will assume that ticket is for when dry3ras3pen recalled it.

At this time I don't see any proof that the Pally was ever recalled from kushbro, so kushbro should have never recalled the Warrior.

the oo for what ever reason just took the account back without contacting me

So you're saying the OO recalled the Warrior, not you? So right after you asked dry3ras3pen for the warrior back, the OO just happen to recall the warrior? That's quite a coincidence.

 

[EpicNPC]

Kushbro, I'm not seeing any proof from you.

You started a recall chain based on the fact the paladin was recalled, although it appear it was not until the 30th, three days later. Please provide proof it was recalled.

ssmith297 did you recall your druid? Has Kushbro contacted you since?

 

[Cow King]

I haven't recalled any accounts. I don't do so due to the fact that Kushbro might have traded the druid account and it may be in the possession of a new owner and do not know who Kush may have traded it to. I am at no loss as I am not playing the game right now and am in no hurry to get this solved.

Kush has made no attempt to contact me since, although I have sent him several AIM's while he was posted online.

 

[EpicNPC]

kushbro logged in today and did not reply. He's been notified.

dry3ras3pen has his original account back
kushbro has his original account back + ssmith297's druid
ssmith297 has a replacement account from kushbro

The first trade has been undone and both parties have their accounts back. ssmith297, you have a replacement account, if you are happy with that I can close this. If you are not and do not want the account or want another form of compensations from kushbro, let me know what it will take for you to consider this issue resolved.

I do not have SSmiths druid I dont understand whats going on?

 

[EpicNPC]

Well then tell me what's going on. These are your trades and accounts involved, I don't know what's going on either unless you tell me.

 

[Cow King]

Here is the series of chains that went on.

Kushbro traded a warrior account for 3rase's paladin.
ssmith297 traded his druid account for Kushbro's newly acquired paladin account
Warrior account was recalled by either Kushbro or OO
In retaliation of the warrior account being recalled, 3rase's recalls his warrior account from ssmith297
ssmith297 contacts Kush to ask about the paladin account
Kush is not OO, therefore cannot recall it, so he gives ssmith297 a replacement account until he can figure out what happened
ssmith297 finds paladin OO (3rase) and asks what happened with the paladin
3rase tells ssmith297 that the warrior account he traded for was recalled, so he recalled his paladin
ssmith297 attempts to contact Kushbro with no response

I am currently trying to get into contact with the OO of the druid so I can get it recalled, but I do not know who Kushbro traded or sold it to or if he still has current ownership.
Replacement account was either banned or recalled, as I can not access it as of this morning.

---------- Post added 11-05-2011 at 05:56 PM ----------

My main concern is that recalling the druid will just cause another domino effect and even more accounts being recalled along with more scam threads being opened. I don't know how many times it could have been traded by now.

---------- Post added 11-05-2011 at 06:28 PM ----------

*edit to fourth line. 3rase recalls paladin account, not warrior. Sorry.

I am going to supply a personal account to ssmith so this will be taken care of soon

 

[Cow King]

I'll be trying to contact Kush about compensation as far as an account later on today. Will post with updates.

 

[EpicNPC]

waiting for update.

 

[Cow King]

Just waiting on a response from Kushbro as far as compensation. Not sure if he's busy or away.

 

[Cow King]

Kushbro has provided me with another account. I have no further concerns about this issue, and would like to set it to resolved.
