Any stolen account could be taken back any time. |

1. Create new wow account. Use the exact same name created to use the 1 you scammed.
2. Transfer the character to your new account, make sure u have the email changed to yours
Before you do so! Its to avoid him seeing the char transfer!
3. Get old account perm banned. Use detectable bot or whatever method u preffer.
4. Call blizzard and say u got married and want a last name change!
5. Merge blizzard to battlenet account thats on your name
6. Pay attention to the old account, and perhaps call blizzard to delete the
Account! U need all info for it tho. Including ID
Dont know if this is the best way! But i think it is, typed this on a mobile!
So might be full with errors!

Your taking a risk, your either going to lose your account, or you will keep his characters.
Another way I read about is merging your main account and the scammed account to a bnet. Transfer the characters from scammed to main. Ban the scammed account. I don't know if this method work but it seems like it could. |

Change the last name to something else.
- Merge the account to the battle.net account.
- You have control of the account, the person cannot log in. However, they can still recover it.
- Make a new account with the original first/last name.
- Transfer the characters.
- Call Blizzard, say that you got divorced (or married, divorced is less suspicious) and your credit card has your maiden name on it, and want to change the account names to avoid billing discrepancies. They should agree (anything to avoid discrepancies in potential profit), and voila. It should be yours.
- Change as much info as you can. Character name, server, faction, etc. Just creates more red tape for programmers to search through. They don't solve every case. They really just don't care that much, or it gets dumped into a huge database of Cold Cases, and you have your account! |

| Only problem with this is that you now have a battle.net account with a perma-banned account and logs that show a character transfer. Very suspicious. |
