Just putting a post out there, hopefully people know better, but there have been at least 3+ players spamming to sell mythic jailer/sylv mounts today, far below market value (1-2 mil).

I reached out to multiple of the guilds, and they told me they were NOT selling.

Please, do not fall for this and lose your gold.... the going rate is 3+ mil EACH. If someones offering for 1-2 mil, its 99.9% a scam.

Hope this reaches anyone who is considering

most people wouldnt bother due to getting a ban hammer for boosts

id only trust jsp trade things or a external site for that kind of stuff these days

wdym getting the ban hammer for boosts?

as long as the price is stated and the service is legal they will give you your gold back when you are scammed. It's been this way pretty much forever.

what if its a scammer account that unloads the gold immediately?

Incorrect. The gold is traced, yet not returned.

Source: had multiple folks get scammed in trade before coming through me.

blizzard can track gold and strip it whenever they want. There is no way to not leave a trail. They have the ability to strip mounts, gear, gold, and literally anything else off of an account. They can also restore yours pretty easily. The main thing here is that it was a legit service or trade and that you have everything in the chat so they can see you werent trying to RMT and that you are just a legit player who got scammed. Blizz doesn't want players who pay monthly subs + box prices quitting their game so they will help as long as its clear you did nothing wrong yourself.

So say you get scammed and they move the gold via any method instantly. Once your ticket gets read they will look into the account and follow that gold trail and ban/remove anything it touches. Unsuspecting accounts who tried buying that gold will have it stripped and anything they bought with it.

This is why nuloland gets people banned at such a high rate, he pays cash for cheap stolen/botted gold and then sells it here to unsuspecting jspers. He had to namechange from smalldevil94 because thats the same account name he uses to buy the ill gotten gold on other sites.

I've gone through the process and had others do the same. As long as its discussed via in game chat and not discord or other apps they will in fact return the gold. It also has to be a legit service not piloted or cross server boosting. Anything that isnt allowed they won't put the effort into and say its your own fault.

Have not seen it go that way a few times; even when clearly stated in party chat.

Glad you had other experience.

its also blizzard we are talking about and GM rng, I've seen innocent people get banned so I'm not saying mistakes don't happen or lazy GM's don't exist.

I had someone scam me on jsp for 1 mill a couple years back and because the chat log consisted of a "pvp boost" I just opened a ticket and said I was never boosted. They returned my gold (even though I was rmting lol) I'm not sure if he got banned on wow but he was already locked on jsp from scamming others as we were trading.
