first all you do is delete and sell all the stuff on your 70 (reccommend having one)
send all your money to another person, your "noob" and then say if you send him or have your freind hold like 1k gold or something then delete your 70, talk 2 a GM and have them bring back your guy ( with all your new stuff) (dosent do anything to the stuff you gave to the noob), they will do it and then you can eather send all the stuff from your noob back to your main or you can do it again but make sure you have a diff. GM not the same or else you could be caught if you do this close together maby every 1ce a month with the same GM it would work but i wouldnt try it more then this
p.s yes this works becouse ive done it alot aready XD

Reputation: 1 | | | Not all Game Masters will refund gold or items. My friend's account was stolen some time back, and his Hunter and Paladin were stripped of their gear and gold. On the Hunter, he got only his gear back.
On the Paladin, the GM sent all of the gear Cash on Delivery, but didn't return any gold.
So there's a bit of a flaw in your trick here, in that there's no guarantee that a GM will refund gold and gear. You may get lucky and get it back, doubling your gold cache, or you may get screwed over, by the way previously mentioned.
Two years later that Paladin is still standing naked beside the Stormwind Mailbox at level 60, after numerous attempts to get a gear refund.
I don't in any way recommend this method of gaining gold, as it's quite a big gamble, especially if your characters are geared semi-well. |

Reputation: 15 | | | This doesn't always work, depends on the GM. My hunter lost all gear and about 2k gold. I got hacked and got all my gear less my weapons back, no gold or no items in my bag. (alot of primals).
So don't risk it if you can't really afford to as it may not go your way. |

Reputation: 1 | | | if it does backfire jst send the money back from ur "noob" n then try again a month later eventually ur bound to get a refund, n dont do it on a well geared char do it on a char thats like only geared from heroics, no raids, s3 or badge gear so in case it dont work u can get the gear fast |

Reputation: 2 | | | My friend did the same, he only got the char back, no gear nor gold. I would NOT recommend this way of scamming. |

Reputation: 52 | | | lol this is an epic fail. all the Gm will do is see that you sold all ur items and sent it to ur alt and tell you that he can not refund you. now ur left with a stripped lvl 70. Grats |
