Re: Scams of Today - UP TO DATE INFORMATION - HOW TO STAY SAFE WHEN TRADING

<span style="color: #FF99FF">Destiny, your posts make me all happy-like inside.</span> /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Now, I would like to add in my own little montage if I may. The old, "I was scammed out of an account, will anyone be a dear and give me a unused account." Now by all means, if this was proven and he/she was actually scammed, they should be entitled to it, but there are a select few who have no proof and are trying to get a free account out of the whole shpeel. I offered one of these hoodlems and account, because I felt sorry for him, and he said "No thank you, it isn't what I am looking for." At this point im thinking you must be joking. Ever heard the phrase, "Beggars can't be choosers?" Anyway, ask them to provide some form of proof before handing them an account.

Great informative post, keep up the good..posting...work?

just got scammed by a guy with aim = comegaming . i cant believe i didnt realize this earlier but he will spoof his email address. it will look like its coming from [email protected] but hes actually just spoofing the email to your own email so when you reply you send an email to yourself. anyways, i had to call and get my account back. i only had like 20-40 gold. i just hope he didnt delete any of my items.
 
Re: Scams of Today - UP TO DATE INFORMATION - HOW TO STAY SAFE WHEN TRADING

scammers suck!
tips:

1) Don't rush into things
2) Talk over phone
3) Exchange info about each other
4) Trust each other
5) Ask for any additional information you may need before completing the sale.
6) Ask for a Middle Man if one of you are still nervous about doing the sale.
7) Be smart, don't do anything you wouldn't do if you weren't under pressure
cool tips. thx a lot.

Re: Scams of Today - UP TO DATE INFORMATION - HOW TO STAY SAFE WHEN TRADING

OK.

I think this is a new scam but i'm not sure and would like to know if anyone else has experienced this.

I currently received an email from blizzard saying my account had been put into question. The email address is not linked to my wow account but they provide a link to verify my account. It's got a tracker number attached to it so that basically if you click on it you are admitting that you are selling your account and therefore impending ban.

It actually is blizzard because I replied to the email saying i'd like to speak on the phone and got their WoW account setup.

Anyone else receive this?

well let me add my own little week's worth of experience.

Don't use paypal XD If you absolutely have to, no matter what, do not immediately give them all the information.
One guy went so far as to explain to me how if he sent money and opened and closed a dispute that the money couldn't be taken back by dispute again. What he failed to mention is that that does not cover insufficient funds.

I was also silly enough to do it on a weekend when I can't contact blizzard lol make them wait! if they won't wait, they prob want to scam you anyway.

i'll be damned if I ever sell an account without a money order again =X


'also XD theres some stuff goin around markeedragon at. if you link an email at all to this site, you may get an email from [email protected] XD now I checked the lettering. it really is BLIZZARD.COM but here's the bait n switch. blizzard sends mail from [email protected], and [email protected] is not them
wink.gif
 
anyone know anything about hyperstunner? he has 120 posts and he does a lot of buying and he sells blank wotlk accounts. he outgears me by 300 gear score but he said he wanted to wait before we trade. he let me go on his account and he went on mine. i highly doubt he is a scammer but since im not OO,even though i know the oo in rl, i jut dont want to get scammed. how can i reduce the risk of getting scameed.
