Quick Money - Scam (2)

[janzi9]

1. Purchase some wrapping paper from an Inn (Sells in Goldshire for sure, and most Inn's)
2. Goto Ironforge or Orgrimmar
3. Goto an Auction House
4. Find an epic thats buyout is for around 200g
5. In trade channel say "WTS [Epic] 150g! Hurry!"
6. When someone sends you a tell saying they wanna buy it, tell them you gotta go and you will mail it to them.
7. Wrap up some crappy weapon in the paper.
8. Send it to your victim.
9. Log on later, and open up your mail. You might just be 150g richer!

This works about 5% of the time (1/20), but, still possible. Its very good to just do this on an alt so people don't trust your main account.
You MAY get a warning/suspention or even a ban (unlikely), use at own risk.

Have you ever gotten a warning for this?

[janzi9]

Ya mon, but they can skip to a 72 hour ban.

[Matt]

Have you ever gotten a warning for this?

I've done this a few times, it works every so often. Never got warned for doing this.

[janzi9]

How much you get?

[Matt]

How much you get?

450 gold for a brightwood staff

[janzi9]

Sick. Lol, I made like, a few gold.. not really much. About 50g max. Mind you I didnt go too hard out on it.

[Matt]

[janzi9]

Guys this is THE SCAM. It is amazing! I made 1520 gold in 2 days! The only reason i made it in 2 days is so i wouldnt look so suspicious otherwise i couldve made like 2000+ a day easily. I havnt been warned, suspended, or banned yet. Keep up the good work Janzi and Matt!


Oh, i bought my epic mount at level 20

Oh and it works 8/10 times. Just before you cod it say something like "I wrapped it for you! Lol ". They will think that you are really nice and stuff and will increase their chance of taking it buy a mile.

[Muryllis]

I just made 80gp this way, and may just be 400-500gp richer if these other sillybuns take the bait... XD

You can easily get banned by doing this, it is clearly against TOS. One of my friends did this and was banned in 2 hours. I did the 1g COD packages for 3 months without a warning, so it just depends on the GMs on your server.
