[Theory] Private Server Scam

[tatortotts]

Alright, so I've only tested this once, but I'm quite sure it will work multiple times.
So, let's say you own a pretty populated private server/going to make one.
Well, as far as I know, the admins ALWAYS have permission to view people's account names and passwords in Navicat, etc.
Well... here's the scam part. Most of my friends use the same AN/PW on private servers as they do on retail. OR they use the same AN and email address.
I think you know where I'm going with this. Just test all of the information on retail.
I had a private server a while ago with about 500 members on it. When I quit the private server, I got about 10 accounts.
There are many other ways you could do this too. Make a website that discusses WoW or something, they might use the same info on there.

Again, this is just a THEORY. I've only done this once before.

Happy scamming, guys.
Oh, and please don't flame -.- Everyone deserves a chance ;P

This is really just common sense.
I always use a different account + password on private servers for this exact reason.
Some people are just complete morons, what can you do?

P.S Might be a repost, but don't count on me.
Good try, nonetheless.

Yeah anyone whos stupid enough to use same user/pass as retail may as well have emailed you there details... common sense.

Well now you're just going to get a trend going saying "common sense" "common sense".
Oh well. Might as well delete this post.
