Reputation: 9 | | | [Scam] Simple Account Scam, 90% Success! (Tested&Works)
Hey Markee! I mean...Mmowned
Going to share one of my account scams with you all. Sorry if its a repost, all the scams posted here mostly have the same titles:/ eg. [Scam] Account Scam! lol.
Well here it is, step by step.
1. Go to Markeedragon. Straight into the WoW Account BUYING&SELLING section.
2. Make a WTB thread! "Buying Lvl 70-80 Accounts"
-Make some details on the thread, blah blah
3. Wait for people to contact your AIM posted on the thread.
4. Ask them about their account/character. Also ask to go on the account to test it out. Ultimately making sure you aren't getting scammed yourself.
5. Now, for the scam. Tell them to give you their Sqa, and the current email to it. And that you will send money after they do. Only the smart ones catch on. If they catch on to you, tell them that you are paying through WU, and that they will be recieving cash. Make up some social tricks such as "Once I send you money, I can't get it back". Use those social engineering!
6. If they have fallen for it, go ahead and use the change email feature on the WoW site, since you have their current email, account name, and sqa. After that, request pass change.
Now, you have their account. Congrats!
Now, to discuss the flaws in this scam.
-Most will know you are going to use the email change feature. Just use the WU trick. They will be consumed in the thought of recieving cash.
-If they really care about the account, they will ultimately recall the account. The victim usually does in every scam, so its no new thing. If they don't, your lucky.
-NO LAST NAME!! Don't kill yourself about it. Doesn't have much effect on you anyways.
I suggest you xfer off the character, or trade it immedietly. As, the percentage of keeping the account is very low.
Enjoy Folks

People usually change their e-mail to yours, and I don't think you will find someone dumb enough to do that. Actually, maybe you will be able to get a level 17 Human Rogue with some epic VC gear. |

Reputation: 9 | | | You dont. You ask them for their current email, so that you can change the email on the website.
You have already logged on their account for that "ingame look" so you know the account name.
You asked them for the SQA, so you know that also. |

Only like desperate people would do it.
But there is always that chance, so you never know. |

How do you get the account name?
While this sounds good in theory, I don't think anyone will fall for this. |

Nah, people do. Got two accounts off this already. Just say that your using western union and sending them real cash. They fall for it. |

Just because you see them in-game doesn't mean you know their account name xD
| As I said in the thread, you are asking to go ON their account. Use your brains! Say that you don't have another account and that its your first time buying an account. |

[Scam] Simple Account Scam, 90% Success! (Tested&Works) is a tad bit misleading. Good guide and +rep though |

Just first say , Can i have the Account name and pass to login to see if its a real account. Then you got acc name. Then Be like, Whats the email on the account, Im just making sure you own this account. Then be all interested and say using WU all that crap and be like , Can i have SQA first so no one gets scammd here or use social engineering...
Good luck , Wish good luck to me! +rep if this works
