Hello, I would like to warn people about someone practising the C.O.D Scamming, his name is Blizzaree.

He mailed me a "Blue ribboned wrapping paper" for 150Golds C.O.D.

With this post I also want to report him for violation of terms of use.

Thanks!

Yeah man, report him in game. A lot of this has been going on. Hopefully they all get IP banned. Some people sadly fall for it.

If you buy wrapping paper for 150g you aren't being scammed you're just fucking stupid.

Im not sure how exactly this is a scam. There was nothing misleading about the mailed item. It clearly said that it was wrapping paper, and clearly said it was a C.O.D.
Is it a douche move to try to get people to give you 150g for wrapping paper? Yes.
Is it your own fault if you accept a clearly marked C.O.D. item for a clearly marked price? Yes.

terms of use still prohibit it:

Yeah, I understand that it's a crappy thing to do. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if they did get banned for it. I just don't see where it can be labeled as an actual scam anymore than placing a single item in the AH for the price of a stack. If someone is dumb enough to fall for it, what do you do?
