Scammed what to do now?

[raven2000]

I sold account to some guy and gave him the ID. Few hours later the Paypal payment is now being contested.

Can I get Blizzard to permanently close the account? If I can't get the account I don't want the scammer to get account either.

Hiya,

You should post this in the Scammer thread following the proper template. (I'll link it)

http://vbforums.mmobay.net/scammers/347715-***-how-report-scammer-scammer-post-template-***.html

- Thats the template, scam busters is for when you want to warn the community of a suspicious user. (in other words, nothing was scammed)
- After filling out the template, you should also take screenshots of the chat logs for proof.
- You may also be required to take a screenshot of the payment he sent you, and where it shows it's being contested. (Block out any personal information, if in general you feel uncomfortable posting the screenshot, you can always PM it to a mod.)

As for asking Blizzard to close the acount permanently, I've never heard of such a thing but I guess what you could do is say you were scammed, and then mail in the ID. Since the scammer also has the ID though, if he sends it in, I'm assuming Blizzard will lock / ban the account since it's obvious it was traded or shared. (Not 100% if that'll work though)

Best of luck though =/
