MYGAMESALE.COM: THE GOLD IS IN THE MAIL…NOT! Plus The Bomb Will Be In The Mail, You Lying SOBs (3/4)
I…I am at a loss for foul superlatives.
Another WoW gold selling-site review gone bad.
Did someone place a curse on me or what? Am I doomed to never get the gold I order and resort to the neverending rounds of refunds and chargebacks?
Kiddies, go check out the chat transcript below featuring Extreme Gold Fan as Ted Kaczynski (a nickname sweetly bestowed upon me by my Chemistry teacher back in high school), MyGameSale.com’s supah-dupah agent Alice, and Peet’s Coffee.
The last one doesn’t make any sense, I know. Especially at 5:50 in the morning which is the time I see on my PC clock as my fingers plod on the keyboard.
In fact, nothing in the chat made sense to me.
MyGameSale.com, you are one big fat scam of a site. Just who are you exactly? I can’t for the life of me comprehend how your own customer support agent can NOT know whom she actually works for and not know the correct URL of your mother company.
You hiding something from your own people?
I’ll find out what that is one of these days. Mark my word, MyGameSale!
And gimme back MY, er, Remus’ money!!!
================================================================
(The chat transcript is also available in plain text for the benefit of those who can’t see the images properly)

Please wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with ‘Alice’
Alice: Hello, nice to meet you! How may I help you?
Alice: Hello :))
Ted Kaczynski: Transaction ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Alice, please help me. Where’s my gold?
Alice: please don’t worry
Alice: let me check it for you now ^^
Ted Kaczynski: Thanks
Alice: you are welcome ^^
Alice: Could you tell me your paypal email and which website ?
Alice: i will help you to check your order ,ok?
Ted Kaczynski: My paypal email address is XXXXXXXXXXXXXX and what exactly do you mean by which website? How many websites do you own???
Alice: we are some cooperate company
Ted Kaczynski: A cooperate company???
Alice: yea
Alice: could you tell me your order code ?
Ted Kaczynski: I don’t understand. Which gold-selling site do you work for anyway?
Ted Kaczynski: I know I entered the correct site, Alice.
Alice: to be frank , i am not sure
Ted Kaczynski: GASP
Alice: because i am a new person
Alice: could you tell me your order code ?
Ted Kaczynski: I gave you the transaction ID. Well, what if I give you my character name instead. It’s XXXXXXXXXX.
Alice: ok, let me check it 
Alice : XXXXXXXXXXXXXX (WOW)->XXXXXXXX->XXXXXXXXXXXXX US XXXXXXXXXX ?
Ted Kaczynski: Alice, how could you work a company whose name you don’t know? Please answer that question. It defies logic, to say the least.
Ted Kaczynski: Yes the game, server, character name and amount of gold you gave me are all correct.
Alice: i know our company but we have many different websites
Alice: good news, we have mailed your gold to your mail box :))
Ted Kaczynski: Oh I see. You have many different websites. How nice. I think as a consumer I have the right to know what sites they are. Care to tell me now, please?
Alice: www.coffe.com
Alice: www.coffee.com
Ted Kaczynski: Hang on, lemme check that out.
Alice: ok :))
Ted Kaczynski: And you say you delivered the gold to my mailbox? Funny I don’t think I got it. Stay there, please. I’ll be back.
Alice: ok , wish you good luck ^^
Ted Kaczynski: Uh huh
Alice: Have you got it ?
Ted Kaczynski: Checking….
Alice: ok :))
Ted Kaczynski: How come you guys never sent an email about it?
Alice: Have you got it ?
Ted Kaczynski: Hey, wait a minute, I checked out the site you gave me — www.coffee.com - and it led me to Peet’s Coffee & Tea!!!
Alice: ok
Ted Kaczynski: And no, the gold is NOT in the mail. Is this some pre-Halloween stunt? And why are you smiling?
Ted Kaczynski: Alice, this isn’t funny.
Alice: don’t you got it ?
Ted Kaczynski: Are you even reading what I type here? –> Ted Kaczynski: And no, the gold is NOT in the mail. Is this some pre-Halloween stunt? And why are you smiling?
Alice: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX (WOW)->XXXXXXXX->XXXXXXXXXXXXX US XXXXXXXXXX is your order , correct ?
Ted Kaczynski: Yes, cripes, they are correct but I don’t have the gold and WHY DID YOU GIVE ME A URL THAT DIRECTED ME TO PEET’S COFFEE??? BTW, my parents love their coffee.
Alice: please don’t worry
Ted Kaczynski: Tell me why I shouldn’t worry, Alice.
Alice: i will contact our delivery staff to confirm that
Alice: we mailed to you on 25th
Ted Kaczynski: WTF
Ted Kaczynski: I placed my order AFTER the 25th!!!!!!
Ted Kaczynski: OMG, what is going on?????
Alice : please hold on
Alice: let me contact our guy
Ted Kaczynski : OMG
Alice: please trust us we are really finished your oder
Ted Kaczynski : Look, it may have been deleted by Blizzard. Can you please redeliver the gold? Please.
Alice: please wait a moment , i will contact our delivery staff
Ted Kaczynski: Alice, first you give me a URL which leads me to a site which has NOTHING to do with WoW gold….next you tell me you delivered my gold - even before I ordered from you guys. Do you have any idea how freaky this is? This is straight out of the Twilight Zone!
Alice: Because i check from your character Ted Kaczynski can’t find order so i ask you give more information so that i can find your order
Alice : I just want to try best to give you a best service
Ted Kaczynski : Don’t make me send you a mail bomb, Alice.
Alice : we will try best to solve your issue smoothly
Ted Kaczynski: Give me "a best service’? Then resend the gold and give me a legit website address!!!
Alice: please trust us
Ted Kaczynski: How can I trust you at this point? You give me a web address that doesn’t belong to you people and you guys never sent me an email about the delivery.
Alice: we are really sent gold to your mail box
Alice: You are really place your order on http://www.mygamesale.com , right ?
Alice: because http://www.mygamesale.com is belong to www.coffee.com
Ted Kaczynski: It’s not there. Please redeliver, I am telling you this very nicely from my remote cabin in the woods of Lincoln, Montana. And yes, I placed the order at one of your many sites www.mygamesale.com……ALICE, GODDAMN IT, WHY DON’T YOU TRY GOING TO WWW.COFFEE.COM?
Ted Kaczynski: Type that on the address bar of your browser and see what happens.
Ted Kaczynski: I dare you.
Alice: To be frank, i am a new comer, i am not sure all things about our company
Alice: because our company is very large
Alice: hope you can understand
Ted Kaczynski: When you signed your employment contract, what company name did you see on that piece of paper?
Alice: it is chinease name
Ted Kaczynski: You know what, I give up.
Alice: i will ask our guy to find screenshot to you
Ted Kaczynski: Forget it. Just refund my money.
Ted Kaczynski : You are creeping me out.
Ted Kaczynski: It’s becoming obvious to me that this is all one big fat scam.
Alice: please wait a moment
Alice: if you are really don’t have receive it
Ted Kaczynski: Refund my money or I will file a chargeback.
Alice: i will tell our manager and give you a reasonable solution
Ted Kaczynski: Tell your manager to call or email me and explain what the hell is going on and why you, Alice, are giving me the website address of a coffee company. I should write to Peet’s about this.
Ted Kaczynski: Another site bites the dust. Ha!
Alice: about www.coffee.com is my fault
Ted Kaczynski: I want my money back. I can’t believe I gave away my money to a bunch of crooks AGAIN
Alice : please calm down
Ted Kaczynski: Don’t tell me to calm down, Alice. Just give me back my money.
Ted Kaczynski: Goodbye and good luck. You’ll need it if you want a promotion, which I don’t think is in the cards for the next ten years or so.
Alice: because there are some mistakes
Alice: we are really finished your order
Ted Kaczynski: Whatever, Alice. I’m outta here.

What the hell…
1. They delivered your gold even BEFORE you ordered anything from them?
2. Alice (if that is her real name) said: i know our company but we have many different websites
3. Then several lines down she says: To be frank, i am a new comer, i am not sure all things about our company
MAKE UP YOUR MIND, LADY!
BTW, I love Pete’s Coffee too.

Lestat de Lioncourt on 29 Oct 2008 at 8:13 pm #
LOL.
WTF?
A rep who doesn’t know what site she’s representing?
A site that is obviously not their affiliate?
A psychic guy who can deliver gold before you order from them?
This is sooo scary.
Happy Halloween, dude!
Hope you get over it.

I told you it was like ordering your gold at starbucks…
No wonder their customer representatives’ brains are purely made of caffeine. :3

Matt on 13 Dec 2008 at 1:49 pm #
Yeah, I’m currently going through the same thing.
Nianal on 21 Mar 2009 at 11:07 am #
i am having the same shit, ordered 10k gold they rang me told me the price is incorrect and its 400$ not 125$ ordered power leveling 1-60 package, said it would take 4 days, its been about a week and there only lvl 28.. bullshit website
Andy on 09 Aug 2009 at 4:29 pm #
Wow Im Glad i check this out first lol SCAMMERS!!
connor on 14 Oct 2009 at 11:56 pm #
I paid for a 1-80 powerlevel from them. I’ve bought gold before with no issues, so i thought hey why not get powerleveled. Let’s just say my account is banned, they got me to level 59 and are holding that against me, and now they want to sell me software instead of refunding the full amount.
whoareukiddin on 29 Jan 2010 at 2:44 pm #
you people are so full of shit,only thing i can assume by what ive just read is you are a competitor trying to trash this company.I have used mygamesale for 2 years and there have been times that they didnt have stock but guess what they delivered eventually!And ted kazynsky you were an asshole from the start i wouldnt give you gold either!!you were more worried about there buisness than actually getting your gold but if the truth be told your a competitor anyways.and this other person about the drivers license/i.d card??get real in 2 years i have never been asked anything like that but i noticed you took all that time to type that in only confirms to me that you are a competitor seller trying to steal buisness!not everyone buys into all your bullshit because some of us can see that this whole site of your is to trash them because you are a goldseller yourself!!end of story.

Hi All. I have already shared my experience on many review sites, so you may have already seen my review on my dealings with this company (MyGameSale) I am JacktheRipoff, JacktehRipoffs or just Jack. I have purchased from MyGameSale on three occasions. The 1st two purchases were WoW Gold orders ~ 5k each and they were completed fast, face to face, with no problems. So I decided to buy an account from them. This was a nightmare. Well to start with, they would not give me the secret Q&A to said account. They told me they would give me this information in one months time. They said this was necessary for “my safety” (mm-hmm, thats what they said). So I play my new toon and call back after a month. They would not give me the secret Q&A. It took two months of harassing them everyday, sometimes more than once to show that I wasn`t going away. I spoke to, Vivian, Erin, Wendy… well all of them i think. Many times i was just given the silent treatment, especially after i asked one of them if the were actually a Live human, or a fancy software program. (Sometimes with English, grammar and the kind of copy paste template replies that they give, you could very well think they were some kind of automated program). Well five months later, the said account was hacked! And here`s the kicker: my other accounts which are mine and which i play on the same computer have not been touched. This happened a few days before Christmas 2009. I have since learnt this has happened to others who have purchased from MyGameSale and around the same time. I did not regain control of my account, MGS does not have any protection or guarantees what so ever. As a bonus for my troubles, I also now receive spam to the email address i gave them from companies i have never heard of, including emails that claim my accounts are under investigation and that i must verify them by clicking the link and providing my Log In info - and that`s not even the funniest part… some of these hoax emails are for Aion accounts! (i have never played Aion let alone have an account). Do Not Buy From MyGameScam! -
Sincere regards,
Jack
