Triaging makes sense. It’s not just for medical professionals!

Anyway, I understand you’re feeling pretty upset now. I’d consider taking a short break, spending the weekend doing forum arguments isn’t really a great use of the weekend.

You did get a manual verification in this very thread by Blizzard.

I really don’t know why this thread is still going. Dispella, posting here may lead to more account actions as this is not an avenue to dispute an account action.

Anything else is completely unnecessary here.

Here’s hoping this thread gets locked and/or removed at this point.

Best of luck with your appeal(s). Friends, don’t trade gold with strangers.

Just because someone on the internet claims they work for CS, does not mean they do. Just because someone in a Discord says they are legit, does not mean they are. The person may have some experience with CS, or even know someone there. They are not working with CS now and you did not get that from any sort of official Blizzard communication.

Orylia can see all your tickets you know.

Yes, yes I can - a LOT of them.

The only reply I see is our standard uphold template.

You keep asking for a human - you have gotten humans - I, contrary to the fur suit, am also human.

You engaged in an unsupported transaction and got burned. For that - I am truly sorry. Do I think you thought you were dealing with criminals - no, do I think you thought much about this beyond your hoped for outcome - doubtful.

When I tell folks not to deal with these folks, there are good reasons. This is a multi BILLION (yes, that’s a B) industry across the gaming world. These are not businesses - they are criminal cartels. Not just in the sense that they break OUR rules - they also engage in credit card fraud and identity theft for starters.

Real world analogies are going to fall flat for this kind of circumstance. There simply is no direct example that is going to line up completely.

But think about this - illicit gold is like counterfeit money.

If you were traveling to another country and went to trade your real currency for another, and were supplied counterfeit money and get caught…

Again, not a great real world example because there simply isn’t one - but something to think about.
