RIGHT TO REFUND
You, the customer, are entitled to a refund of the money to be transmitted as a result of this agreement if PayPal does not forward the money received from you within 10 days of the date of its receipt, or does not give instructions committing an equivalent amount of money to the person designated by you within 10 days of the date of the receipt of the funds from you unless otherwise instructed by you.
If your instructions as to when the money shall be forwarded or transmitted are not complied with, and the money has not yet been forwarded or transmitted, you have a right to a refund of your money.

Edit that correctly the way you want it, then when your talking to them give them this and show that you are trustworthy and %90 of the time they believe you. Now after that, tell them that you are ready for the trade and everything, if you need to before you do all this, tell them if they want to really do the trade that you are 'taking it off ebay' first... That should help.
Now if you can try to get them to give you their username, password, and sq + answer first so you have a assurence that you'll have the account. Then if they do, and you get it.. Give them your trial accounts username, password, and sq + answer. BEFORE you log onto their account, make sure to have worldofwarcraft.com account management login page opened first, so that you are ready to change their password, and sq + answer.
If it all goes well and smooth you should have a legit account... Make sure if you want to KEEP the account, change all of their contact, and billing information.
I hoped I helped, Happy scamming!
Enjoy! Ul[i]gY

Also this is much different compared to how you change the information for the European version, since you have to rather call them or email them... and by emailing them takes weeks.
If you've ever used PayPal you'd understand this..

What do you do when they ask to see your character in-game?
well, i guess you log onto your main and show them it? But make up some stupid reason on the trial account so they wont say a WORD to your main for security reasons?
something like this i guess. "Umm, my main's name is XXXXXX, i will take him to the Ironforge Bank Mailbox, but you cannot say a WORD to him because of XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
The gm's cant link your main account to the hacking if your mains account never socialized with your targets. (they will prob report on the web form or w/e)
Well thought out, but I rather not scam an account if they didn't do anything to me,
Idiot.. Read ALL of my post/thread before saying something.
