(Judging by the reports they seem to have become more vigilant than usual.) This is what I got: World of Warcraft -- Account Closure Notification -- Exploitative Activity Found Account Name: [censored] Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy This account was closed because one or more characters were identified exchanging, or contributing to the exchange of, in-game property (items or gold) for "real-world" currency.
