Scam accounts while in-game! 100% Fool Proof - Easy as 123!

[Deadly Tomato]

Hey guys,
This scam will tell you how to take accounts using a "Survey" in-game. This will pretty much work 50% of the time.

What you need:
Social Skills
Mass crowds
No Decency
100-1000g (not needed, but VERY useful)
Ability to persuade


How to Start!

First off, we are going to need a large crowd. We can use /2 for now. (I'll be giving you a list of the best places to do this later)
Once in /2 type Take some surverys! Win Gold! PM Me to enter! 1000g will be given out to a random player...If crowds are bigger, i'll give gold to 5 people!

Okay, you should be getting a whole lot of PM's Right now. 10-20's. Tell them to meet you in (SW or Org) because these are the biggest places and most well-known. Tell them please hold for about 10 minutes...Also say, would you like me to email it to you? It's alot faster and more convinent! Say you will get 10 Raffle tickets by doing this. This puts you in the draw for the gold!
1. They will say yes
2. They will ask you to do it in-game.
(If they ask you what it's for, say a project or somthing)
1. Is our best option...This is also finding out the persons email. Which is another advantage and the thing we are going to work on! This also is our best bet to getting all there info.


Making the email!
Now, we are going to need to make an email. This includes going onto hotmail and making it.

Okay, now goto Hotmail.com and goto "Register an Email"...
Once done, we need to make a good looking email...That doesn't have to be fully WoW Related. I chose "[email protected]" (Note: Choose somthing that looks good when you send it to the victim like "SurveyMaster" but don't use "[email protected]" because it will just look like your a scammer which is what we don't want)
After finding out the victims Email send him from your newly made hotmail/live this message

Greetings, Character Name

Do you want to win big? Get gold for your new mount? For a limited time, we are offering hundreds of WOW GOLD!

All you need to do, is take this survey. This survey is so we can see what age groups and in what areas play more, while at the same time learning about what the players are interested in!

We require your account name to ensure that a player does not cheat and enter multiple times.

Account Name:
Charactername:
Server:
Battle-Net Email(Not required):
First Name:
Last Name:

Where were you born?
How old are you?
Did you have a pet?
What was the name of the pet?
What is your Mothers maiden name?
What is your Fathers middle name?
What school did you first attend?
How long do you play per week?
What's your favourite type of car?
Did you like the new "WotLK" expansion?
Did TBC ruin the game?
When did you start playing?
Do you play with friends, or does your journey include you and only you?
Do you think that WoW will fall after the new game "Aion?

Thanks for your cooperation, we will PM you later on today about the prize draw time.
(Tell me if I need more)

They will email you back saying there info normally, but have no idea what's happening. DO NOT ASK FOR THERE PASSWORD! Email them back a Raffle Ticket if they respond. 10 Raffle tickets if it's right.

The Raffle!

All of this work hasn't come to waste! Email them back saying to go on the server --- at the time --- to go into the raffle.
Make them goto a secluded spot, so it isn't really crowded or dangerous. Now, use a random number drawer (There are plenty around just google it) Now, the winner will say ME ME I WIN and so will alot of other people. Tell them to Screenshot the number, and email it back to you. Now...Split the money somtimes too, to make it look realistic!

Retrieving the Account!
Now, most of you should know how to get this. Goto the EUMain page or US Main page and goto "Lost account or Password" then goto 'Retrieve Email' now enter in the email the guy who sent you the stuff has...If it doesn't work, email him back for it. Now type in the answer and voila! There is your account!

Battle-Net: Do the same as above, but goto "Lost Password" type in the name/Battle Net email you should have recieved, now go through the answers too see if there are any there. If the question is something difficult, just skip it. There should be plenty of people wanting to do this

This scam works alot of the time, now I will show you the best places to scam:

1-20: Elwynn Forest, Durotar
20-40: Generic leveling areas...(Arathi etc)
40-60: Tanaris, Feralas and that's pretty much it for those levels
60-80: Outlands. Hellfire Peninsula is the best place cas' they all want there epic mounts. For 65 - 75, move onto the main cities or the main questing areas, and start talking to them...75 - 80, also goto the main inns in LK and Dalaran


Many people will fall for this, as all they know is they're winning gold for a little survey.

[nappjuck]

This is too much hassle.
Can't see how this actually could work -.-

[Ayar]

WOW.

This is actually a really nice idea and is sure to get atleast 1-2 accounts a go.

Is there anyway to not get banned for doing this if I did this on my main account though?

[Avaleiria]

Wow, very smart, havn't heard of something like this before.
keep up the good work, and great post!

[Rarmann]

I can see that this could work.

[Acespades]

Doesn't it seem like they would catch on... I mean, no survey asks what school you attended.

[Nazboys]

I may actually use this, very nice scam. haven't seen anything like this here. +Rep

edit: spelling

[7upisnice]

This is decent, but I'm sure that most people would recognize where the questions on that survey came from. I'm sure this would be believable if you changed up the survey. I would do something like this:

Survey:

How old are you?
How long have you been playing World of Warcraft?
Are you a male or female?
Do you enjoy animals?
If so, do you have a pet?
What is your pets name?
Do you drive a car?
If so, what car do you wish to drive the most?
What is your favorite part of World of Warcraft?
Do you have any family members who play World of Warcraft?
A lot of new mmos are being released this year. What do you think Blizzard should do to attract more players?
Etc...
The survey needs to be a little longer imo.

[vrohk]

Kinda cba to try but I could give it a shot ...

[mpslayer]

I think the Mothers maiden name would definitely be a red flag

[kidinabarrel]

very good guide

[Deadly Tomato]

I think the Mothers maiden name would definitely be a red flag

Yes, good point. But this is just a basis, you can change around your scam however you would like.

Yeah, in between all the SQA questions, ask some random questions. Also, to make it look even more legit ask at the bottom things like would you like to participate in even more surveys for a chance to win MORE gold? also, if you're really into it, make a website and add it at the bottom (Or, pretend to be from a well known, survey website).
