It sucks that you lost all of your gold, but why in the world would you do that much, no middle man, all one trade with a stranger? You were absolutely begging to be scammed. The other guy would have to be a complete idiot not to scam you in that scenario.

Imagine going to this much effort to get TBC gold exchanged for retail gold. You couldâve earned more than enough money to play TBC but you chose an easy route and got what was coming to you.

There is an old tale about a man being a fool and how his money is always parted⌠if only I knew what it wasâŚ

Yea⌠In business Iâm fond of the phrase âkeep an honest man honestâŚâ You trust⌠but you also establish controls and you verify. Its quite possible even someone with intentions that started out honest would be swayed by someone giving them 3k in untraceable money⌠Iâm sorry but⌠thatâs just a collosal blunder

Iâd fill a ticket out saying you got hacked and they stole 32M of gold and gave it to somebody else.
They could easily check your toon and see whom it was given to, and even see if then he siphoned it off. They may find evidence heâs actually selling gold, for instance if heâs dispersing it to several different accounts etc.
You may not get it back, but they may suspend or ban his account and take the gold.
