    New Name Change-SCAMS!

    Well, im havin a thought here...
    SO you want to scam someone?
    Spam trade channel, saying things like"WTS mongoose bring mats" or "spellstrike hood ur mats my nether." When you get an unsuspecting customer, go to the wow site, and change your name. (unfortunatly this costs some cash), 10 bucks, but you get those mats and a changed name, and the victim has no idea what happened. and your name is changed! just an idea, i would try it if my account wasn't stolen :P but try this out could work well!!!

    Yea, they implemented a new service where you can change your name for paying $10. The oboards are angry over the whole thing, not so much about the scam side of things, since that is easily tracked, but the whole ninja thing. I think the point that they made it cost $10 to change it should stop people from doing this.

    o0 if he adds you to friends list you new name will be there, and the 10 bucks would be wasted.

    its just an idea, i didn't say it worked...
    and u can find the name changer on the wow website, just go to account info and in there is a tab for changing names.
    There is only a few realms available for name changes tho

    What about PCT / Free Migration, then name change and PCT / Migrate back?
    Too expensive, but when someone just need to change name...

    Well this isnt a bad idea if you have 10 bux to spare just for some gold, and a possible ban from some mats, but if you do this would probably work.

    Plus, it has a 90 day cooldown period.

    What would the outcome be? Your original name would be reported, the Game Master would investigate it and find that you used the name change service. You would still get actioned. This won't work.

    Any one know if you can still report your name for being against TOS (aka religious or named after a company) to get your name changed free?
