Just though i'd bring this scam back...i wrote it myself, but i couldnt bump it up because it was too old apparently. ( Sooo.... OBVIOUSLY this is a repost, but im just reposting because its been inactive and i cant bump it up)
Im still using this scam and it still works....
::::
Ok, since i can't search, i havn't been able to check if this is already said.but i haven't seen it so i'm going to give a run of it anyway...
1) go to a wow account selling forum like markeedragon.com and search under the "selling accounts."
2) Find an account you like and add the person selling it.
3) Spend a while asking questions about the account and making yourself sound genuine.
4) When they ask for a price, keep argueing with them about the price so they think you're an actualy buyer, and after a few minutes, agree on a normal price (don't just pay $2000 for a lvl 40 account or it will be obvious xP)
5) When they ask "how you wana do this", you say something like "Change the email to mine first, and then give me your username and password so i can log onto account management and check. Once i've checked taht you're honest, i'll send the money and once you recieve the money, Give me the Sq/Sa"
6) If they don't agree to this, then go find a different person. if they do, then they're noobs.
7) When they change the email, try to find out their full name. Ask things like "can i please have the full name the account is under? Becuase if blizzard questions me, i need all the details!" and most of the time, thye will believe you!
when you have their name, Go search their name or email address on myspace/facebook beacuse most people have that. If you're desperate then search their email address on google.
9) See what their SQ is and try to find their answer on their website.
10) If you Figure it out, CONGRATZ! you have a new account with enough info so that if blizzard contacts you, you will probably seem legit. If you DONT figure it out, change the pass and hope for the best, if they dont cantact blizzard, then they can't reset heir account because its under your email! so CONGRATZ! you have a 25-50% chance of have gotten the account.
TIPS:
This works better if they other person is not OO so they might not be able to contact blizzard and recover it beacuse they don't have CD key...
Try using the impersonatiton scam to make yourself look like a more legit person so they will give you their details in advance.
Notice: It will probably take you a few tries before you can get someone who falls for this, or to find someone who's SA is somewhere online.
Also::: A good thing to do is to quickly sell the account you scam, in case they try to recover it. then even if they recover it, you still got the money from selling the account.
If you want to get yourself some time before they retrieve the account, do this on a saturday, because blizzard doesnt recover people's accounts on weekends (as far as i know) so it would give you more time to use the account for whatever you want.

Your thread is not [EPIC] or [LEGENDARY!!!], tagging your threads like that makes you look like an idiot.
Not bad, go into more detail though.
if u want any help or you need more details...feel free to email me at [email protected] to ask any questions.
Man this is awesome, I noticed your spelling mistakes but who cares?!
This is truly awesome! Im going to try this...
But first i need to know what SQ/SA is.. Please tell me? Thx ;D
EDIT: Of course +rep ;D
Secret Question/Secret Answer.... and sorry for the spelling mistakes :P:P
wow over 400 views and not even 10 comments...i thought this was a great scam.....lol
Ill try this scam when I get home +Rep (If i can)
any questions about this scam just pm me.
ive tried this on 6 different people who had like 1-5 post on markee and seemed fairly new but none of them were ok with the conditions any social tips or advice
you could take their username and password first, then it will probably seem a little less suspicious to them lol. The main thing is to talk them into changing the email to yours before you "pay them." and don't worry if it doesn't work, it might take a few tries to get someone who will go with your conditions and has their info on myspace and stuff.
This is what i do to convince them i need extra security:
i pick on the people who just joined MD, because they're more likely to be noobs, and they dont have any rep. I've been on MD for almost a year now, and i have a bit of positive so....::::
Me: soo, do u have any rep??
them: nah, i just joined
me: a k, well, usually the person who has less rep should go first, i have * positive ratings, u can trust me lol. and i've been around md for a lot longer than you with no negative ratings.
Even if you don't have any positive ratings, it helps if you've had a MD account for a few months, so it seems like you know what you're doing. just tell them you've been a member for longer and that there area a lot of scammers making new accounts just to steal.
Hope this helped.
what if i make a fake myspace or somethin with some bogus pics and i ask for a freind request or something on a new member so if anything happen wel be on contact to make him feel more safe and ill get his name there then afte ri get his password ill go from there sound good? Since im looking to transfer to a account i only need name and login info
yea, i reckon thats worth a try, seems like a good idea.
persian i want to ask you something but i dont want to get flamed or something and i cant pm you do u have aim?
