my experiance with buy-wowgold.com

**surfsem** · 07-04-2008

Well today I was bored, so I scammed a dude from markeedragon
Made a trial account, new aim, new hotmail, new paypal, and a new md account
Put up a thread selling a full s3 priest epic flyer blah blah blah
Got one IDIOT to send the money first, 300 buckaroos

You all know the scam
Anyway, I was broke (on Wow) and went to buy-wowgold.com, which was the first site I found when I googled buy wow gold

I bought 8k gold and waited an hour on wow
Got bored again so I open up a live chat
20 something minutes later "Robert" and I starting talking...
