The people reading this already share your perspective. Mine is the unpopular one, but it’s just as valid.

I’ve worked in this industry for nearly 10 years and you may say that has no merit, but it absolutely does. I have bought thousands of accounts, so if every account I bought was recalled, why would I do this? I have to buy them to sell them, so if my reputation and money is on the line with every account sold then what gain is there to sell them knowing they’ll just be taken and I’ll be the recipient of an unhappy customer? I’ve been doing this for nearly 10 years, shouldn’t the thousands of accounts I’ve purchased been recalled by now?

You either believe that’s true and I’m just a retard who has only lost money for a decade or you consider the fact that you might be wrong. You can’t apply the same logic across the board just because of a few bad actors.

Some accounts do pose no risk of recovery. Such as:

- Accounts made specifically to have a character transferred to them, back when this was possible.
- Accounts duplicated back when this was possible.
- Accounts created under totally fake names.

Not every account comes with a psychotic Orginal Owner attached to it. I’m sorry yours did, but it sounds like you just bought from the wrong people. Did you follow any of the guidelines I posted in my first reply?

You probably never even considered these things. I already said this is an industry nobody understands because everyone is quiet about it, and rightfully so. Look how you’ve responded to me for simply posting something positive about it. Why would the average person ever speak up if the angry mob comes for them like this?

If people like myself (there aren’t many) were allowed to speak up, then people like you might have less bad experiences. Plain and simple. I don’t care if anyone buys an account, but if they’re going to, then there are ways to do that safely. Your attempts to block that information is why I’m continuing to reply. There are things you have no idea about that I’ve tried to share to potentially help people make more informed decisions in the market. If you’re allowed to shill boosts or anything else related to RMT, then there should be no problem with someone reputable defending an industry he’s involved in and navigated successfully for years.
Honestly, I only read the first line of your long messages. Just like I did with this reply, so you're really wasting your time responding; I'm not going to read it anyway, I have no interest in your speech.

My words remain the same.

DO NOT BUY WOW ACCOUNTS FROM SELLERS/RESELLERS AS THEY WILL "LIKELY" GET RECOVERED.

Please stop replying to me if you wish not to be responded to.

I do personally find it quite odd how OP has not once replied to this topic, does seem rather sketch indeed. Also, a fake name on an account does still prove a risk, at least in my opinion.
My brother had a Runescape account he got off his friend many years ago, everything was under my brothers details, he was actively playing the account for several years before it was randomly recovered an there was 0 chance of him regaining access. Buying or receiving an account is very risky, of course the original owner can regain access anytime, they have the receipts to prove their identity as the original owner. There is not one thing you can do that will secure it.

As someone that has bought from account shark. I couldn’t ask for a better seller. I’ve also bought multiple accounts from company’s to private sellers. Not once have I ever had my account recovered to put it in perspective. I have over 10 accounts one of them being an account that I bought back in 2010 and still playing on it to this day not one account has been banned or recovered messed with. I’ve even gone to the extent of selling some account for the reason account charge says I’m just a normal person and when I need extra money extra cash, I will sell a account.

Lol, first post.

lol first post. What about it? You think it says it’s my first post that I’m just a account shark bot �� I never talk on here for this reason as I use this place as a way to find call of duty and apex cheats. And just so happens that I run into the World of Warcraft forum and see that someone that I’ve bought off of many many many many times is being flamed as scam. Yeah Imma say something lol

Forgot my old username, anyway, I have heard good things about AccountShark but I've never used them. I will share my experience with TopWoWAccount since I like to give people their flowers when they deserve it.

It happened back in 2023, I've spent approximately 4000$ on a WoW account that I am still playing to this day. I was amazed by the fact that they provided full bnet name change since I wouldn't have ever bought an account if it wasn't on my name.

Not here to argue with anyone but someone might find it useful.

All these one-post accounts and new accounts are just :kekw:

I've personally bought 3 or 4 accounts from @[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] over the past ~6 years (I'd have to check the exact dates). Out of those, only one was temporarily recovered, but it was resolved within 24 hours and returned to me (I later sold it to someone else). The rest— including one I purchased over six years ago—are still going strong.

I’ve also referred dozens of people who have had no issues with their accounts and have even bought more.

@[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] is absolutely right that accounts can be recovered by the original owner, which is why I choose to buy from AccountShark. His seller vetting process is the most reliable compared to others I've dealt with, and his warranty is excellent.

There are ways to reduce risk, like purchasing a Battle.net first and last name change, buying shell accounts, or getting extended warranties. But if you're buying an account, you should always understand that there's a chance the original owner could recover it—just like cheating, sooner or later, you'll get caught and banned.

Edit: I’ll add that there are plenty of reasons people choose to buy accounts—legacy items, achievements, saving time, and more. Personally, I buy them after getting an account banned. Over the years, I’ve noticed that new accounts are often more heavily scrutinized when using things like bots and unlockers, leading to much faster bans compared to aged accounts with feats.

For example, I buy accounts from AccountShark with one or two Gladiator seasons on them, which I then use with unlockers to sell boosts. These accounts last significantly longer without bans than fresh accounts. While there is a heavier upfront cost ($600-800), I can easily make that back with just one boost.

You shouldn’t be discouraged from buying an account just because it could be recovered. Instead, the key is buying from a seller who helps mitigate those risks. But as always, there’s never a 100% guarantee.

Just wanted to share my experience with TopWoWAccount.com and I could ramble for days about why TopWoWAccount.com is the spot to buy WoW accounts for me, since I’ve been buying from them on and off for nearly 5 years now, and in that time, I’ve had zero issues. Not one.

My first purchase was back in 2021 for around €1600. Solid account, no red flags, and I later passed it on to a real-life friend without any problems. Fast forward to 2023, I went all-in and spent $5200 on a high-end account that I still play today. No bans, no login issues, still under full control.

Here’s what makes them stand out:

Full Battle.net name change service – super rare, and it actually works.
Top-notch customer support – replies are fast, clear, and helpful. No copy-paste nonsense.
High-end accounts – these aren’t random level 60s with greens. We’re talking rare mounts, titles, reps, gear, etc.
Real account ownership – I even went through a Blizzard ID check recently and passed without a hitch. Still 100% mine.

In nearly 5 years, I’ve never had an account recovered, banned, or compromised. I’ve seen horror stories from people who went with random sellers and lost accounts when old IDs expired or original owners came back for them. That’s a risk I’m not willing to take—especially with serious money involved.

This isn’t a paid post or affiliate plug—I’m just someone who values a reliable seller, especially in a market where trust is hard to come by. I’ve attached proof of purchases in case anyone wants receipts.

TL;DR:
If you’re planning to drop real money on a premium WoW account and want peace of mind, TopWoWAccount.com is 100% worth it. They’ve never let me down.

This is wild, lol. I don't think anyone said any of these companies aren't legit. But these phony accounts popping up, doing reviews, and then adding two thanks from two newly made accounts is crazy work. @[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] I believe he purchased accounts because I know him from around the scene, but that one right after him is looking really phony.

On another note.

These account sellers should offer lifetime warranties on the accounts if they get recovered, with a replacement. When you spend 3-4k on an account, it should be guaranteed against recovery as long as the seller is still in business. Just my opinion, maybe some sellers are like this, I dunno.

100% the same people advertising for topwowaccount, log off pattern even seems odd. The accounts on there are far too good to be true as well in all honesty.

Yeah, I don't know what's really going on with this thread. I'm 100% sure Account Shark is legit. However, this thread seemed really suspicious from the very start, and then it spiraled into topwowaccount shills coming in and making up fake reviews to advertise and take advantage of the situation. It makes me think they made this thread, to begin with. Account shark just happened to be in the crossfire.
