    How prevent OO from recalling the account?

    Hello i bought an account and i'm afraid that the OO will recall the account so i wonder if there is a way to prevent him from doing that? If i transfer the character to a new account with a different first name (but same last name)? Or is there any other safe way? I like the character i bought alot and don't want to lose all time i spent on it. So if anyone knows a safe way then please share with me, i would be thankful!

    Change the Secret question and answer, change all the info on the account (excluding the name since you can't change that). Basically, change everything you can.

    The OO can still yank the account by providing the original CD key # and copy of their ID. I went further by getting a gift card with Visa logo, bought new game, started new account in same name as OO, registered the gift card in OO's name, then used character transfer service to move all characters I wanted to keep to the new account. Since only I know the CD key of the new account, it'd be virtually impossible for OO to pull the stuff back.

    About 3 months after I bought the account and moved all, the original account got recalled and taken away but the characters on my new account remained. =) I bet the OO is hopping mad that he can't get back his 2 level 85, a level 79, and a level 68 characters, several BOA gears, some valuable stuff, and nearly 100k gold.

    It is expensive insurance, easily reaching $100 for all 4 CD keys + gift card with MC or Visa logo for character transfers.

    You can't change the secret question and answer btw.

    The poster above me might have a legit way to prevent recalling, but clearly it'll cost you over $100 for that insurance.

    I've had accounts recalled on me as well. This one ****** that I met IRL for the transaction actually had the balls the recall it too. It's simply not worth the headache to buy accounts anymore, so when/if an account of mine gets banned, I always start fresh so I have peace of mind.

    A majority of sellers try to get their accounts back, and most of the time they do. If you tell blizzard "Hey that guy sold me his account, it's mine" Blizzard just laughs at you does nothing to the seller, you're ****ed.

    btw, yes you can. Call into Blizzard. They ask you a hella lot of questions, but eventually you can get the SQA and the question changed.

    the more innocent bullshit you weave into your story, Moving, Hacked, and trash. The better chance you have. Blizz can't call you a liar. Thats the best advice i can give you.
