Hi guys,

Just letting you all know I was recently scammed by someone appearing to be mmo-armory on Skype. The reason I didn't think ANYTHING of it was because I had opened a thread on here and submitted a quote form to the website (Index | MMO-Armory.com) and then I was added by someone named Mmo Armory on skype. I just assumed they were getting back to me for the form. I saw this image AFTER he went offline and I actually decided to look at his profile.. Whoever it was he got me good. It must have just been a huge coincidence that an MMO-ARMORY imposter added me after me submitting my quote form to sell the account.

[10:03:27 PM] Michael: Hi
[10:03:53 PM] MMO Armory: Greetings Michael
[10:03:59 PM] MMO Armory: Are you still selling your WoW account?
[10:04:12 PM] Michael: Yep
[10:04:33 PM] MMO Armory: I saw it was a pretty good one. Any chance to see an armory link?
[10:05:01 PM] Michael: Sure ill send you the Warrior
[10:05:36 PM] Michael: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/*********************
[10:05:48 PM] Michael: Let me know if you need anything else
[10:06:54 PM] MMO Armory: So the price you were looking for this one
[10:06:57 PM] MMO Armory: Was 400$, correct?
[10:06:59 PM] Michael: Yep
[10:09:51 PM] MMO Armory: I'm considering on buying this one honestly
[10:09:57 PM] MMO Armory: But do you have all the information?
[10:10:10 PM] Michael: Yea all the information its all in my name everything matches up never been name changed
[10:10:11 PM] MMO Armory: As you might know I'm a reseller and I need all the safety measures
[10:10:17 PM] Michael: Yep
[10:13:14 PM] MMO Armory: In order to buy your account I will need your ID and CD-Keys scans
[10:13:20 PM] MMO Armory: (Scans, not pictures)
[10:13:42 PM] Michael: CD keys were virtually bought im not sure if ill be able to find them..
[10:13:51 PM] Michael: Can scan my ID good quality
[10:14:19 PM] MMO Armory: Will be hard without the keys mate
[10:14:39 PM] Michael: I didnt know you needed keys but if theres anything I can do to compensate for them in terms of security I can do that
[10:14:42 PM] Michael: 2 forms of ID or something
[10:15:28 PM] MMO Armory: Without the keys I'd have to transfer the licence to a new battle.net mate
[10:15:31 PM] MMO Armory: Just to make sure it's safe
[10:16:11 PM] Michael: Okay so theres nothing else I could do?
[10:16:15 PM] Michael: Im still after $400 thats all :/
[10:16:33 PM] MMO Armory: I can offer you the flat 400$ mate, money ain't the problem :P
[10:16:41 PM] MMO Armory: Problem is the account's safety
[10:17:01 PM] Michael: Well you said youd have to transfer it to a new Battle.net so I thought you were hinting at a lower price thats all
[10:17:15 PM] Michael: Not sure what else I could offer in terms of safety, I have an Australian drivers license and a passport
[10:17:32 PM] MMO Armory: It has no costs. You can open a ticket saying you want to transfer your WoW license to a new battle.net
[10:17:36 PM] MMO Armory: Which is gonna be mine
[10:17:45 PM] Michael: Really? Okay
[10:17:50 PM] MMO Armory: I just need your last name
[10:17:56 PM] MMO Armory: To create a new battle.net
[10:18:17 PM] Michael: Okay so im fine with that obviously
[10:18:25 PM] Michael: I was looking for the money fairly soon, would I have to wait for all that to go through?
[10:18:45 PM] MMO Armory: Well if we get it going it should be done soon enough
[10:18:52 PM] MMO Armory: As in today
[10:19:05 PM] Michael: Its 10.15pm here but im open to try it :P
[10:20:12 PM] MMO Armory: Okay so
[10:20:19 PM] MMO Armory: I'll need your first and last name
[10:20:26 PM] Michael: ************* :P
[10:20:28 PM] MMO Armory: And your birth date
[10:20:28 PM] MMO Armory: :)
[10:20:31 PM] Michael: **********
[10:21:35 PM] Michael: Does that changing the WoW license method always work or is there a chance Blizzard would say no
[10:21:45 PM] MMO Armory: It usualy works :)
[10:22:19 PM] MMO Armory: Now you'll need to open a ticket saying you want to transfer your WoW license to your newly created battle.net account with the following e-mail: [email protected]
[10:22:33 PM] Michael: Just from Battle.net?
[10:22:37 PM] Michael: Or in-game
[10:22:50 PM] MMO Armory: From the battle.net website
[10:23:52 PM] Michael: Which topic would I choose
[10:24:37 PM] MMO Armory: Something related with a battle.net issue :)
[10:26:47 PM] Michael: Just trying to navigate through it
[10:27:23 PM] MMO Armory: Let me help you out
[10:27:30 PM] Michael: Ive got a related one
[10:27:43 PM] Michael: Just chose I have an issue with my game license upgrade
[10:27:44 PM] MMO Armory: You go to the support page, ask a question
[10:27:47 PM] MMO Armory: Battle.net management
[10:27:53 PM] Michael: What should I include in the ticket
[10:29:42 PM] MMO Armory: You can say something like this: "Greetings. I'd like to transfer my WoW license to a new battle.net account I created ( [email protected] ) so I can keep my games separated, which makes me feel more safe hence they have different log-in informations."
[10:29:48 PM] MMO Armory: And you send them your ID :)
[10:30:20 PM] Michael: So i attach my ID? also there are no other licenses on the account so what do you mean by keeping games seperated etc?
[10:30:27 PM] Michael: brb about 5 minutes, gonna go scan my ID and send it to this computer
[10:30:34 PM] MMO Armory: Oh, ahah
[10:30:44 PM] MMO Armory: Thought you'd have any other games over there
[10:31:11 PM] MMO Armory: Well then just say you want to transfer it for safety :P
[10:34:24 PM] Michael: Okay, you dont think they will ask why or anything, should I give anymore info? Just scanned my ID
[10:35:23 PM] MMO Armory: Just say you sent your info to a phishing e-mail and you feel safer this way :)
[10:35:35 PM] Michael: okay
[10:35:36 PM] MMO Armory: And say it keeps happening so it's better this way
[10:37:26 PM] Michael: This okay?
[10:37:26 PM] Michael: Hi there!

Id like to transfer my WoW license to a new battle.net that I have made. I think I may have sent my information to a phishing email and I feel it would be a lot safer and I would feel more comfortable with this. The battle.net email I used is [email protected] and I have attached a scan of my ID to avoid any complications!

Thanks
[10:37:47 PM] MMO Armory: Yep, it's perfect mate
[10:37:55 PM] MMO Armory: They should answer pretty quick
[10:38:26 PM] Michael: okay the ticket has been made, now what did you need from me
[10:38:32 PM] Michael: may as well get that stuff done
[10:39:46 PM] MMO Armory: Only your ID scan mate. But don't send it yet, let's wait for Blizzard's answer :)
[10:40:06 PM] Michael: Ill probably be up for about 3 more hours.. I wonder if they will answer before then
[10:40:31 PM] MMO Armory: they usualy take 20 minutes or so
[10:41:48 PM] Michael: cool ill check back then
[11:24:10 PM] Michael: Nothing yet
[11:25:32 PM] MMO Armory: Is the online chat available?
[11:25:49 PM] Michael: How do I find out?
[11:26:00 PM] Michael: Yea it is
[11:26:05 PM] Michael: 01 min wait time
[11:26:15 PM] MMO Armory: Awesome :) You can use it instead of the support tickets
[11:29:51 PM] Michael: Using it now
[11:29:54 PM] Michael: Cancelled old ticket
[11:32:12 PM] Michael: Hes just reading over what I wrote
[11:34:36 PM] Michael: "I should be able to do that. One moment while I take a look over the two accounts."
[11:34:43 PM] MMO Armory: Awesome
[11:34:45 PM] MMO Armory: :)
[11:39:30 PM] Michael: "okay, so there is a bit of an issue, since you have SC2 that cannot be moved, there is a bug with it currently. How about we do this. I just change the email on your old account, reset the password and reset your secret question, basically making it like a new account so any information the hackers may have had will be useless?"
[11:39:35 PM] Michael: I dont remember having SC2..
[11:40:05 PM] MMO Armory: Say that you rather have WoW moved out of there so you use two differente e-mails for the games :P
[11:40:41 PM] Michael: Okay ill see what he says
[11:41:05 PM] Michael: Hes going to move just WoW
[11:41:42 PM] MMO Armory: Great :)
[11:42:11 PM] Michael: "Okay, your WOW account us now under your [email protected] battle.net
Errinthalat 23:41:56
You will have to log out of bnet and back in to see it take effect
youat 23:42:04
Thanks a lot!"
[11:43:02 PM] Michael: All done
[11:43:09 PM] MMO Armory: Okay let me see :)
[11:44:37 PM] MMO Armory: Yep seems to be all okay now
[11:45:00 PM] MMO Armory: Had to do this since you had no CD-Keys mate. This way there are no recalls and stuff
[11:45:06 PM] MMO Armory: Now I'll need your scanned ID :)
[11:45:22 PM] Michael: okay just through Skype?
[11:45:41 PM] *** Michael sent 001.jpg ***
[11:46:21 PM] Michael: Let me know if all is well
[11:46:26 PM] MMO Armory: It has a pretty cool quality indeed
[11:46:44 PM] Michael: Good scanner :P
[11:48:49 PM] MMO Armory: Just for the record, I'd need your b.net SQ/SA
[11:49:00 PM] Michael: For the old one?
[11:49:05 PM] MMO Armory: Yep
[11:49:13 PM] MMO Armory: Btw how to you intend to receive the money?
[11:49:16 PM] Michael: If its First Pet its **********

[11:50:20 PM] Michael: But yea Paypals good because its all verified and bank account hooked up
[11:50:49 PM] Michael: Just checked, my SQ/A is "If you could change your name, what would it be?" and the answer is "***********"

Logged off at that point, right clicked to view profile and heart sank. GG
Anyone got ideas on how to get my account back? He has ID and EVERYTHING now.
 
Got my account back after about 20 minutes work. Even submitted the same ID to Blizzard again. I guess it just proves there aren't many ways to make an account completely secure anymore, I thought he had me good. These people really rustle my jimmies it's just a waste of time on both our parts.
