    new email scam methods?

    hey guys,


    so basically ive been scamming accounts via email. Its pretty much the default scammers email:

    Greetings!

    It has come to our attention that you are attempting to sell/trade your personal World of Warcraft account.
    As you may or may not be aware of, this conflicts with the EULA and Terms of Agreement.
    If this proves to be true, your account can and will be disabled. Blizzard might consider taking legal actions against your crime, if it seems to be of an extreme nature.

    If you wish to not have your account suspended, you should immediately verify your account.
    This action is taken because we at Blizzard Entertainment take these sales
    quite seriously. We need to confirm you are the original owner of the account.
    This is easiest done by confirming your personal information along with concealed information about your account. You can confirm that you are the original owner of the account by replying to this email with:



    Use the following template below to verify your account and information via email.

    * First and Surname
    * Address
    * Zip code
    * Daytime phone number
    * Country
    * Account e-mail
    * CD-key (Alternative: a photograph of your CD-key that is located on your manual for World of Warcraft)
    * Account name
    * Account password
    * Secret Question and Answer


    If you ignore this e-mail, your account can and will be closed permanently.
    We ask you to NOT change the password until the investigation is fully completed.

    Now ive been getting more emails back saying things how terrible the scam is and how it doesnt work anymore. I have also noticed im not getting as many accounts as i used to be getting. My email is perfect and i know that the email is not the problem. I guess people are just getting to smart for this one now.


    Has anyone thought of a new way of scamming similar to this one? (perhaps a new email message).

    If so i would love to hear it.


    thanks!
