Mail Scam - Unbannable
by gell

and

NEW new CoD mailbox scam!
by myojinyahiko

I came up with this.

Buy recipes with scroll picture

Send out a bunch of them C.O.D. for however much you want.

Dont write anything in subject or letter at all!

I did this with 40 cooking recipes i picked up for 40c each, sent all 40 out at

once with varying C.O.D. prices from 50-200g. 2 people clicked the 50g ones

and i got some nasty, and some funny letters back. but no ban.

This isnt really a scam just taking advantage of peoples complacincy, thier

used to seeing AH scroll, might be chating in /g or something, tired, stupid

who knows lol but it takes about 10 mins to do and you have nothing to lose.

[Breeze]

Haha... That looks great, I might try it. You don't need lots of money to do it, and you can be any level.. Not to mention it's not illegal.

Yea, it is bannable - i shouldnt be but sometimes bliz realy crazy and band u enyway - but most of the time it isnt, so make some scamming out there!

[Kelindel]

I would have to guess ive been reported well over a 100-200 times since i get

at least 10 mails a day saying so, some even say they have had thier entire

guild report me. But I have still not been banned, not saying it could never

happen, but it hasnt yet. Untill it does ill keep making money with this

[Fishy80]

how is this bannable? I dont think it is... blizz has an "ARE YOU SURE" thing for opening CoD mail... if somone opens it... thats their own fault...

Yea! I aggre with fishy.

[wwweee]

Actually i think i read something about it was illegal to take advantage of peoples stupidity...=D
(But that shouldn't stop us from doing it anyways :P )

[Ark]

this IS bannable

[Kelindel]

Why do you say that Ark, did you get banned? I still havent got banned.

As long as you dont write anything in the mail or subject your not doing

anything wrong. The only thing I can see that could possibly get you banned

would be if your sending the stuff to the same people over and over they

might be able to say your harassing someone.

[Sacrox]

Where did you buy the recipes?

[Thunderballs]

In europe at least - i thin it deps on which GM u get as to what policy it is. So u might ne unlucky and get a ban from one GM and not another.

either way, in europe at least, if you do get banned get on the blowert to bliz and play merry hell over policy on scamming which states they will take no action. i really dont see how they can reasonably ban you for this totally straight off.

[Kelindel]

I buy the recipes from a fishing merchant outside of darnasus by the dock to

darkshore. here are some other places you can find it though.
