    Scamming in game

    Scamming in game
    This maybe a stupid question but i want to start scamming ingame to get my mammoth, I dont really have any IP hiders because now that im on vista for some reason they dont work. I have norton 360 if that makes a difference and im in the US servers. So could people trace IP's in game is this possible or extremely hard. Also im sure that blizzard has something to help stop that. So please any help or tips thanks! :wave:

    Yeah I know that GM's can get your IP address but can other players in game, Like if i scam someone could they get my IP and find out info about me. I dont have any IP hiders. Sorry should have been more specific.

    If you, can find a way to scam someone to getting gold, then good for you. In the ToS it states "World of Warcraft will and can not refund any lost in-game currency due to mistakes or failures. Only given screenshots of before and after showing dates, character names, and level will be tested knowingly the pictures have no edits or additions. If then, you did lose the in-game currency you will be refunded fully."
    Or something along those lines. But yeah. And, no. They can not gather personal information through in-game.(Personal Info = IP,Credit Card,Name, etc.)

    They are not allowed to look at your Credit Card, BUT They are allowed to see your IP.
    What TOS? I think there's only a TOU. And they can access your CC, they take money out of it every month if you choose to pay monthly? lol...
    They know you're name as you're registered to the account with it.

    I use Vista too, and I still use TOR.
