      This story is abit weird but here it goes. :p

      So I have 10x 85 characters on the same account all with full PvP gear and over 150K gold spread over the characters. One day I get a phone call from a friend of mine saying " Omg dude blizz sites been hacked you can buy what ever you want for free! "

      I thought lol what's he talking about such a HUGE company with a flaw like that in there system.
      I just had to take a look what it was. So I get some more info from him and then got the picture.
      So I thought I just had to try this, so went on a proxy to hide my orginal IP, log onto my account and do three race changes on three different characters.

      Ofcourse it worked and I made the changes. So the days fly by I bot my usual hours a day and get my usual amount of gold and everything seems to be fine.
      UNTIL I woke up this morning and find my Client with a error. First I thought " ah its just something with my RAM's again " I log in and bam I get a weird error when I try to login to one of the changed characters. All the other characters work but but not two of those three that had the change the last one still worked.

      So I logg on my blizz store account and check the transactions for race changes and believe it or not the one that worked out of the three had a paid transaction and the others didn't.
      They wont me to paid the amount for the changes for the characters to get unlocked.
      Im now in a full email conversation with blizz trying to get those two chars back that got locked without paying :p

      Though I will probably never get blizz to unluck them lol ;)
      If I dont get em back, ill delete them and bot them up again I kinda miss botting for levels.

      I knew all along that they would find out its so obvious, but I just had to try it :p Atleast my other chars work hehe.

      So a word of advice, never try to pwn blizz because eventually they will pwn you :p ( oh wait you all pwning them right now ) ;)

      That exploit was so lame. Forums flooded with people selling blizzstore in-game pets and crap. lol.

      Good luck getting them unlocked ;D.

      Nice that they didn't lock the account though and only locked the characters. Weird, never heard of that.

      Yup it was crazy, funny thing is that it still works :p

      They only banned ppl that bought alot of stuff like Diablo2 and all expansions for WoW. A friend of mine even bought a 6 month subscription and they only took away the subscription :eek:

      Today I got my email :p I thought maybe I could delete the chars and start from scratch, but they'v locked that function as well lol. Only way to even use those slots now are to pay the fee ;)
