Pirate [Scam] The Middle Man Scam. - 06-22-2008

I don't know if this has been posted before and its rather foolproof if you're smart enough to pull it off. So sorry if it's known but i couldn't find it.


[Step One]

Go to an account trading website and find a respectable middle man with an easily copyable email address ([Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - turns into - [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].uk or visa versa) Create the account and log in and make the Display name and Personal Message something that seems like the account unused, give it a special touch - a message to a fake friend or something.

[Step Two]
Find an account you wish to scam, bareing in mind that people with amazingly geared characters are less likely to trade, or trust.

If the person wants to trade for a paladin and you don't have a paladin to show in game, find a armory profile and make sure its last update is around 2-3 weeks old or so to give it that bit more authenticity. Say the account is out of time, then say you'd like to trade by middle man and that you'd cover the cost £20 game card is more expensive than a 5 Euro middleman fee etc. This can also work by showing people in game a char you have access too. Better geared, the better the lust for trading will become but don't make it too unbeleivable.

Get trusted by the victim and then when they agree to trade link them to them to the middle mans reputation page but as you do this tell them that you have asked the middle man to add you and add him instantly (on the middleman account) as you have linked the page to the victim and keep him talking, to keep him from noticing the fine details of hotmail.co.uk from hotmail.com.

[Step Three]

Add the victim to a conversation with the middle man and the other account you are using and talk differently on each account, don't use the same words, you aren't the same person remember, on the middle man account act proffessional and stay friendly and subtley hurry the victim. Say are you both happy to trade. say that you have offered to pay the middle man fee. Tell him what is going to happen, i.e changing the email to the middle man's account and checking secret questions.

[Step Four]
When the victim is willing to trade, open a conversation with the victim and let them know that you are receiving all the details from both people, tell him that you need the details from him, get cd keys, last name, secret question, username and password and then proceed to change the email to yours, once the email change is confirmed, change the password and voila you have an account.





This may take many emails and middlemen's reputation to work, it won't work on everyone, but you will get people to do it.

I have scammed around 9 accounts using this method and once you master playing rolls as other people and gaining there trust and keep them from noticing the email difference you will get better and more pro at it.

If there is any questions just PM me and i will reply as soon as i can.

Thanks for reading
