Account banned for "gold trafficking"?!

[metodi2009]

So I got banned for "Gold trafficking" and was told by a GM in-game to make a thread here.

I was able to log on to my account a while ago not having any issues. Then the next morning I was instantly disconnected every time I tried to login. It turned out I got banned for something I didn't do. My account should be secure and I don't think anyone was able to log on to my account. If someone did log on to my account.. I want some proof of this!

I did not do any "gold trafficking" and I request for someone to do some research why I got banned!

To add some more info

Main character - Gieff Paladin lvl 60
Server: Nostalrius PvP

I would definitely want to appeal.

The only reason I could think of that could have caused the ban is the fact I had 150 gold on my main character.. but I'm sure other people have waaay more gold on their accounts. Also 3 days ago when I was logged on to my hunter Eldine a gold trader did whisper me - to which I did reply to : "Reported"

I cant think of anything else that could have caused a ban like this..
I hope this helped!

Greetings,

Your account was indeed banned for gold trafficking. If you'd like to appeal this ban, please provide information in this thread about what transactions you may have done recently that might have triggered the ban.

It's not the amount of gold that we are looking for here, but rather what trades did you make recently via mail, character trade, or AH that might looks suspicious.

Regards, GM Team.

Okay, so I honestly do not remember doing any auctions or sending any mails to any character before I got banned. I took a break from the game and logged on, then next day I was banned.

I did whisper to a gold seller when he tried to sell me gold. I replied to his whisper with a word : "Reported"
That is the only incident I can think of that could have caused the ban - chatting with a gold seller that might have gotten banned later that day..?

I hope this helped :/

Best Regards

Thanks for this information. We will go ahead and put this account ban under review to have a close look at it. We'll get back to you in this thread with the result.
