Scam, This worked for me.

[cirko]

Find an Elite player, with full epic or something.

Then the Title : Yourname
The write something like
You are Lucky you are the winner og this wounderfull item.
There are only 5 winners on the whole server.
Take this special, item and use it with you power.
Congrats!

Then wrap an item and Cod it for 100-1000 G

Worked 1 out of 2 tryes.

[LeGeNdZ]

Or better yet, say something like this....

Title: Congradulations!

yourname

Congrats! You have been nominated by the blizzard staff (well your gm) to be entered in a lottery for the !!!!< insert item name here> is the new Legendary item that wil be added to the game in the Fall. You were the one selected for your server! Good luck! The entry fee is 100g.

[RichyG]

Wow, that could be VERY useful

[Synacal]

Wo0t, +rep made myself 500g

[Haunted126]

Couldn't you be banned for this, though? If someone reported you doing it would Blizzard get mad at you or just ignore the idiot who fell for it?

[Makeman]

This is so bannable, you're impersonating a GM which is first time 72hour suspension, if you do again it'll be perma ban. And if that won't get you banned the scam part will. You're performing a double crime.

[Haunted126]

Thought so. Of course if you said something like Legendz suggested, they may forget about it by the time the "New Legendary Weapon" is supposed to come out. Still, it's quite risky. A money maker for sure, but a risky one.

best one out there atm is pretending youre arthas and send something cod telling them its the gift of arthas, someone posted it lately

[Alkhara Majere]

Bam everyone...I was stupid enough to try this...72h suspension

(Painful...)

Thought you should know.

Impersonating a GM is 3 hours suspension.

[Makeman]

Impersonating a GM is 3 hours suspension.

One dude from hackingsource.net got 72hour suspension for doing that space trick on general saying that "This is GM Somenamehere, the server will be shut down in 10 minutes."

[cirko]

Maybe can you say something like Blizzard Crew
And not GM
Then is the chance to get banned not so high made like 4000G Easy today.
Without getting banned.

[kimick]

and wouldnt u think... why the hell would a Gm or the Blizzard Crew want 100g from me? they can just get it like... poof

[LeGeNdZ]

Dont think u got off with 4000g yet. I scammed 400g and it took 5 days until a gm suspended me. BTW, if u do this scam, i reccommend the "Legendary" item technique that i posted. They will send u 100g, and not report you because theyll think its real. By the time Fall comes around, when they find out it was a fake, they wont be able to report you because you deleted that character when you got that 100g, so they wont remember your name, so they cant report you.

[gammer55]

wow this scams seems like youd get introuble fast
