NEW COD SCAM LOOK OUT AUCTION HOUSE IMPERSONATION

[jimmbo]

Got a thing in my mail from a player named "Auctionhous"
With a subject named "Auction has sold successfully."
THIS IS A COD DISGUISED AS AN AUCTION HOUSE SALE FOR 10G.
EVERYONE WATCH OUT DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO THESE SCAMMERS.
THEY DISGUISED IT ALMOST PERFECTLY.
I AM ADDING THIS TO MY LIST OF HARASSMENT / MAIL SYSTEM ABUSE POST HERE AGAINST 2 PLAYERS : https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=3654

I played retail vanilla wow and ppl got banned for doing this stuff and the players got their stuff/gold back.

for the record, this exact same thing happened to me on retail back in the day and the GM gave me my item back and gave the person in question a ban. mail scams pretending to be the AH or any other kind of fraud were also against the TOS and were bannable offenses.

so, nostalrius, are you blizzlike or are you not?

Theres an official thread about this now, please let this thread die.


AN HOUR LATER:

YOU TELL ME ITS NOT THE SAME PEOPLE AS MY HARASSMENT THREAD:

Are you using bartender maybe?

[jimmbo]

[Minkus]

Glad to see that the GM's are at least conversing with you about the various issues and complaints you've had.

Just fell for this within 30 seconds of logging on.
There is no way in hell i'm getting back my 5 out of 9 total gold, right?
Oh well, life goes on.

Thanks
For safety I disabled my AH_MailCollect too, to avoid auto-accepting scammers mail
I suggest everyone not using addons like this, at least for the moment. :/

Are people using different language clients when playing or do they really click "ok" on the "accepting this item will cost ___" prompt
