Looks like some people are trying to scam by sending a COD mail with the following body text (or similar).
Nice to meet you,I'm duke Nicolas. we have noticed your remarkable display in fighting with the Scourge,You have done much in fighting with the Scourge,and solved many problems for us.So we think that you ought to get some rewards--a present from Argent Dawn. it must be helpful to your next journey.However,you should pay some price for it.When you get the present,you must come to Light's Hope Chapel,I will tell you some information about the Deathwing.I think you must be interested in
This letter is from when someone mails a letter to you, its so you can save it as a letter in your invintory!... but some people send it to an alt and back then save a self made message, then sell it in AH for 1silver - 100gold +! its for the deep pocketed Curious Comsumer!
Ever notice when you go to your mailbox to see what you have gotten there are 3 little box's.
One box is for any Item sent. One box is for any money sent. One box is for if there was an actual message with the letter sent that way they can have a copy of the message.
If you want to test this have an Alt Character send your Main Character a message with some actual words in the message area. Then take the "Plain Letter" that appears in the little box at the bottom.
You can even give the letter to other playes, and yes I would beware any "Plain Letters" you see on the AH. It could be some mystical secret or it could be a message saying "HAHA LOSER!".
Yup, same thing happened to me, except this one asked for 200 gold. Luckly I check allah before accepting. Once I saw it was a scam I just hit return and reported that person, Suck it Awerd of nazgrel...
so yeah, logged in and saw a letter from the "argent dawn" so i clicked and then clicked again, next thing i know im out 150g and a letter that says "A" do not accept this, it is a scam made by players who are to unskilled to get the gold themselves
Im on the Medivh server and ive noticed something, everytime i go to look up to see if there are any recipies that i can use avalible on the AH, this almost always pops up, usally for 50s buyout too. Always wondered what this was and furthurmore, why it's catagorized under recipie search.
