You need lots of gold in this scam, probably at least ~50 000 g because of the worth of the mount.
1) Find a legit person selling the TGC mount for WoW gold. This is the most difficult part. I recommend contacting people selling it for cash on Ebay and proposing to pay in gold.
2) Pay and get the code.
3) Resell the code or use it to get a mount with different account.
4) Contact the seller again and explain that the code he gave does not work. Threaten to report him unless he gives the gold back. If he traded the code to you with his main account, he will probably rather give you the gold back than face a ban.
If this doesn't work, you can make a GM ticket and hopefully you get the gold back. |

You know a Spec Tiger goes for 900+ bucks right? Who would spend that on a scam that 99.9% of the time won't work?
Nice try though I guess.

| Its worth 1k avarage now. And plus, GM's can check what the code was and if it was used or not. I dont really think this is an good scam. PLUS there arent any legit Spectral Tiger sellers out there

Trading Gold for a Code (In Real Life) that unlocks an item in-game seems like contacting a GM might not do you any real good. |

Also, selling TGC codes is a bannable offense. If the seller sold the code with his main, he will lose the gold if you report him. So, you will likely get the gold back with blackmail. |

Reputation: 5 | | | as a seller I'd rather take the cash then the gold imo ( 50k is almost worthless unless you plan on reselling it again, hence cash straight is better ) |
