i did this by getting my friend to /ginvite me then i deposited the items in the guild bank then /gquit
is there a way to secure myself from being banned or the items being removed when they report this to blizzard?

Then send the money to the new char on your pished acc, then /ginvite, then deposit and /gquit then your friend takes out the money and /gquit and send the money over to main. |

Assuming the people who get their account phished are able to recover them and actually report it. |

It throws some confusion, and (in my opinion) bogs down the GM's who are investigating. This wont save the character that did the scamming, but atleast it buys you some time to get the gold "cleaner" on the other characters. |  |
