World of Warcraft Gold Dupe Cheat
There is a cheat that people ask me about, that I’ve seen in some other, less scrupulous gold guides. It’s known as the Gold Dupe Cheat.
I’m not going to go into ALL the specifics because I don’t want you to get your account banned. The general idea is that you give all of your gold to a friend to hang on to, then immediately report that your account has been hacked. After getting your account ‘restored’, including the gold you had, you have your friend give the gold back.
This cheat is NOT a good idea for several reasons. First, it’s unethical. You’re lying to Blizzard about your account. If you need to lie in order to get more make-believe gold for your make-believe character…well, let’s just say that reflects poorly on your parents.
Many folks might not care about lying, so let’s mention this: Blizzard ain’t stupid. They can track who you gave the gold to, when you did it, etc. They are well aware of this ‘dupe cheat’, and have the logs of your activity to know what you did. After all…they can manage to get your stuff back to the state before the alleged hack. Blizzard may decide to ban you AND your friend’s account.
It’s just not worth it.
So I recommend avoiding any gold-guides that advertise having the ‘gold-dupe’ cheat.
