I’d say it is. You can’t not see the prices. The base AH sets high buyouts last. How much can blizzard compensate for stupidity should be the question.
The definition of a scam is a dishonest scheme so if you can get someone to pay roughly 660% to 198000% more than the current market value of all the other listings on the AH I’d say chances are you’ve scammed someone somehow. I don’t even have to know the context of that situation to make that assumption.
Your argument essentially hinges on the idea that because the person who purchases it must have user input to make the scam work it therefore absolves the poster of all responsibility. Legally speaking (in this case) yes because Blizzard doesn’t get involved and won’t punish for this. But alas scams do not require a legal component to be considered a scam, if it’s legally actionable at that point you’ve committed fraud.
It’s the same thing as calling it a trick or a swindle.
