Yet these guys and the gold sellers spam trade 24/7. Susan says "Hi" again..
I'm not sure it should fall on every player to have to comb the forums for recently posted sticky's regarding this kinda thing but meh. Yeah I got this a link to the sticky from one of the emails they sent after-the-fact which was posted 7 days before I got scammed. A lot of good it did.

However,
We're not the average noobs. we should be (and often are) held to a higher standard. Sucks you got scammed, but when something is too good to be true...
Yeah, the way it works leaves a lot of people out of luck when they get scammed. I think Blizzard did it to avoid the hassle of trying to investigate problems that occur at least partly outside of the game, and which are therefore difficult to track. Even in the case of what happened to you (where it would be pretty easy to figure out that you got scammed and track the offender) they will fall back on policy... "the rules say" blah blah blah. It sucks, and that is why I never seek to buy/pay for items where the transaction is half in/half out of the game. If you get scammed, Blizzard will just shrug its shoulders.
