It’s about to get even bigger too with the upcoming content patch, The
Chains of Domination. Adding more nooks and crannies to explore, the WoW
universe is continually expanding.It turns out, though, that even amid
the majesty and the chaos of Azeroth, scammers have taken to the game
chat to try and work some dark magic.
Ever had a random call from somebody asking if you have been in an
accident, or about claiming that PPI payment you never cared about?
Well, those people have made it to World of Warcraft.A recent Reddit
thread shows that scammers have found an elaborate way to find more
victims. Writing: “You will never escape robocalls. Not even in WoW,”
the post has already garnered 2.4k upvotes, and it’s rising faster than
the Forsaken during the Battle for Azeroth.
The image shows a user called ‘Carwarranty’ posting in the in-game chat
that: “Thank God I have found you! Did you turn your game off? We’ve
been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”Is this
simply an agent of the Horde trying to trick the Alliance into spending
all of their gold, in turn leaving them low on resources?
Or is it an even more sinister plan by Sylvanas and the Jailer to lure
you into the horrors of the Maw and corrupt you as they have Anduin?
All jokes aside, it’s insane to see the lengths that scammers will go to
in an attempt to turn a buck (or some gold, in this case). Always be
diligent or, even better, challenge this user to a PvP battle and let
the chaos ensue. The community will be thanking you for it.
