wont say it is 100% safe, depends on your countries laws and what standing it has with the US

ya srsly wtf are you thinking, were you drunk when you made this, I should report you to the FBI myself. :wave:

[ALEXGONZALEZ]

hmm get lots of wow gold or get big time offense?

[editor1337]

I'm not sure impersonating the FBI is the best idea .

[ALEXGONZALEZ]

nice, i might try this someday but im scared if i get caught.

Gold scamming is one thing, but this has the ability to be a scam for real money, you will go to jail for impersonating a government figure and using it for fraudulent uses, and you WILL get in trouble for this.

pfff guys !!!!!!! are you F(sorry) stupid or what??!?!
use your brains!
if your afraid of using the word FBI invent what you want like "im gay i need to check your account"
use for example blizzard say that you need to check the char and or invent something

[Introspective]

If getting raped in federal prison for 5 years is worth 200g, then go for it.

[Mystified]

I dont believe uttering the letters F.B.I. constitutes impersonating a federal officer. Could stand for anything. Fat Butt Inspector for most of you paranoids. Maybe they have more to do then worry bout some guys tryin to scam a fake currency from guys with employees workin in illegal conditions.
You might be able to pull this off on some unsuspecting dope but if you worry about jail you might want to stop jaywalking and sampling candy in the bulk section....

Ok few comments:

1) This is EXTRAMLY dangerous, it constitues fraud and if they report you, you WILL go to jail! Especially saying things like "i need access to your paypal account". Now it doesnt matter if you say im an FBI agent, im a Anti-Fraud investigator or im f*ckin santa claus!

2) Impersonating an FBI agent or any other federal agent will buy you a ticket straight to jail no matter what country you are in or what country the person you are scamming in. The ONLY thing that would stop you getting arrested is if you are in a country which has no deportation treaties with the US. While this would stop you being immediatley arrested you would be places on a wanted list meaning the second you set foot in a country that does u will find yourself being assf*cked in a US federal prison.


3) No gold seller would be retarded enough to fall for this, i mean think about it, if someone whispered you INGAME saying things like this what would your first thought be? Mine would be "Why arent you calling me on the phone....your the FBI you should know my number" Or at the very least "Why arent you emailing me"

4) A gold seller would be able to easily get your IP address, name, address, telephone number and all the personal information stored within your WOW account. Why? Because they could contact blizzard stating they have been defrauded ingame and under international law if they were pursuing a court case blizzard would have to release said information. Oh and if you think a gold seller wouldnt contact blizzard because they are selling gold.....think carfuly, who would get in more trouble? Them for selling gold or you for defrauding them and STEALING from them. If i were a gold seller i would simply lie and say i was just some guy playing the game. If the gold seller didnt prosecute you im sure blizzard would.

5) Anyone with any brains first question would be "Why do you need access to my warcraft account to check for fraudulent activity on my website?" Now i know gold sellers are usually pretty retarded but this is downright nuts.

This is the most retarded thing i have ever seen on these forums, if i were you i would delete this post as i would not want to be responsible for sending so many idiots willing to try this to jail. Not to mention ruining any credibility you have.

Please forum mods start allowing us to minus rep -.-

lol, I tried this one. To my surprise it only worked on one website, but after I logged into the account, I kept getting disconnected. There were 2 characters on it, on the realm Illidan US level 56 and a level 13 warlock and mage.
Strange :S

Here is what I used -

Good evening. My name is Cpl. George Cocks, I am with the IIDA (International Internet Discovery Agency) We investigate digital company's offering services via the internet for different video games. We have received several complaints regarding your services and we have come to the conclusion that you do not have any World of Warcraft accounts in which you use to gather gold and that your company is fraudulent.

On behalf of the IIDA I am here to inform you that we will be conducting a routine investigation. More information will come within the following days and our email should be arriving shortly. We are part of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) we're under the domestic part.

What can you do?
Here at our office we have a computer setup to handle all requests and validations, meaning we can test your services for fraudulent activities by logging into one of the accounts in your possession and then verifying that it is actually there and not fake.
