THIS JUST HIT ME LIKE A BOLT OF LIGHTNING…
Hang on, just a thought:
Regarding 17mins dot com’s guild banks getting raided by Blizz…
What indiscretion did 17mins commit that alerted Blizzard to their activities???
So much for their being "one of the three largest secure network of buying and selling sites for massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) virtual currency and assets on the Internet" . (I got that from their About Us page)
Oh BTW, my friends and I checked out random gold sellers and THEY DENIED any raiding done by Blizz on their own guild banks. In fact, one of them accused Remus of starting a bad rumor to scare all buyers. (How do you say, "industry-wide raid, my ass!" in Chinese?)
Man, they would have made a nice new review but…
How can I review someone who probably doesn’t have any more gold to sell?
Ah well, I’ll find someone else to review.
Later all. Be safe and happy.

Could be anything, but they probably aren’t being legit about the whole “safe and secure” thing.
I remember when I ordered 2000g from a gold seller (Yea, it was a legit site, I still buy from them) after the in-game trade was completed, I accidentally dropped party too quick, and he ended up saying “Thx, have a nice day” in /say. I was at the Org bank, and it was a very populated server. In situations like that, you have to think quick and find an excuse.
Other than that, they probably got reported to Blizz by doing something stupid….maybe, Trade spam?

Probably some of their characters did some stupid spamming on themselves that triggered the other players to report it or the GMs to ban the guild. Well, they are still a spam = scam thing. If you don’t want your toon to get banned by Blizz, then you shouldn’t buy from this site.
