2) Any level 70 that ISN'T yours and is offline.
3) A new player or someone who is just plain stupid. Steps STEP 1:Make a level one with a name such as "Littlébánk". STEP 2:Go to Stormwind/Orgrimmar and look for someone either begging for gold or asking for a free guild. Basically look for someone who is clearly an idiot or a new player. STEP 3:Whisper them saying something along the lines of "Psst. Want me to let you in on a secret to free gold?" Obviously a new player would be intrigued, and so would an idiot.
They will reply with something like "Omgz yez i want 2 no!". This next step all depends on how convincing a liar you are. You have to convince them to give you thier account information...yeah. STEP 4:I like to say "I would love to tell you..but Blizzard monitors chat and they also monitor mail sent player-to-player" the victim will most likely reply with "Oh " Then I would reply with "They don't monitor mail you send to yourself. I could login to your account and send the cheat to you in the mail if you want."
This is normally followed by "How do I know you wont steal my account?". The BEST way to get around this is to say "Well if I steal your account report my main character 'insertrandomlevel70namehere'" a lot of times they will say "Ok" and hand over their information, assuming they could simply report 'your' main character if you rip them off.
IF they want you to logon to 'your' main then make up some excuse why you cant. This hasn't happened to me yet..so think of an excuse for yourself:P
Once you've got their account do what you please, if he reports the level 70..it isn't your neck on the line 
This has worked for me 11/11 times, making me 1200g overall and ending up with me keeping 3 accounts. It mostly relies on you getting a new player - they aren't hard to find at all. | Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.

Nice guide though, would work on MANY newbs/idiots and tbh, they're not hard to find. Just look for anyone asking way too many questions for someone who knows the game. But one problem. Even though it's easy, what the hell are you going to do with a shit account? Unless it is an idiot who has a rich friend who gave them awesome stuff then wtf is the point? And how the hell did you make 1200g off this?! |

Reputation: 138 | | | well if they're new and that naive then you can't net anything good, but if you do happen to keep the account assuming they don't know the sq/a which is a 5% chance then you got a free scamming account. overall I give the scam 2/10 simply because it does not have much potential but you can get a free scamming account. |
