I am starting a list of gold spammers I have encountered if you guys want to copy and paste and share ones you get as well.

@cbxruanueskar @drd44erff @emilbbp @engomeske @hdshessch @houaneylo @ikalabeidl @itiringlam @ivykfmb @ngsinellij @nzaeauo4587 @peckpazb @penwschoul

As well as after posting I noticed these were deleted by staff Thanks, guys for being on the ball about these guys. People need to realize that there will always be morons that try to get a "leg" up in the game.

    This is pointless, clearly these bots are just names created by these lowlife scum mashing their face on the keyboard. If they are banned, they make a new account, make a new character, smash their face on the keyboard again and continue. Besides there are too many to count. Only good thing is that ZOS makes more money every time one of these accounts is banned, because these people have to purchase the game again.

    Don't post lists like this. 2 reasons:

    1) Once the account is reported, it's going to be banned. The gold-seller knows this, and they use throwaway accounts for spamming.
    2) Most of these accounts are going to be legitimate players. If their account has been compromised, you're now going to put them on a list they don't belong on.

    So where are the gold spammers getting their accounts from, I don't believe they're paying for a pre-order for an account that will [hopefully] be banned shortly after they start spamming?

    And before someone replies "stolen accounts" those the OP listed are highly unlikely to have been created by 'normal' players.

    It's always stolen accounts. Some of those may be their own accounts (purchased with a stolen credit card), but there are plenty of "normal" user ID's in the OP.

    If I had to guess, they ordered a bunch then canceled the order, still gaining access to early access. Once the game goes live and credit cards are required to play, things will get better (hopefully).

    Just use stolen CC's and then steal the accounts of those stupid enough to try to buy gold from them... wash and repeat.

    I really doubt they are stolen at this point. I mean they have tons of cash from all that WoW gold they sold. They we spending a little of money now to get their phishing schemes rolling. After that it'll be stolen accounts.

    As far as making new characters is useless, when banned or even blocked it blocks the @name, but my thread was to only put up for ppl to get away from the spam in game, I know I do not like having to see it even temporarily when discussing things or trying to keep up with chat
