It's quite unsettling to see people deceive others to obtain gold, and almost every time they are either not permabanned, suspended for only a couple of days, and not even given back the gold. There is no deterrence, retribution, or justice. Quite weird how there are barely any consequences of fraudulent actions. you either get suspended for a couple of days or don't even get any bans. Why farm gold when you can just scam people out of their own?
Don't know if you know but there's that one guy on icecrown spamming whole day in both horde/ ally how he sells Lod run and he always has that ''LAST'' spot and its on 4pm or 9pm server time. He already has looted around 160k gold from players and its insane that people still give him that much. I found his main char and he has like 200k gold max owned but never earned more than 3500g by farming or something else.
Not to mention that every day you hear his name and people telling he's a scammer.
