Gamepal Filed Fraud 2 Months After Transaction Internet Internet
I received a call from Libraman today (they claim to be a collection agency) stating that Gamepal would be taking me to court for Fraud unless I returned the account that I had sold to them 2 months before or I would be sued for slightly over $1000 and possibly be looking at jail time.
All I could tell the woman, Mrs. Scott, was that I have not been the owner of the World of Warcraft account since early July when I sold it to Gamepal. She stated the same thing as before that if I did not return the account then I would be in deep trouble, completely ignoring what I had told her.
Is this a scam by Gamepal to get 10 times their money back? It would seem so.

I posted earlier. My story is very similar to yours as well as about 5 other people. I was looking into this Collection Agency. I was contacted by the same company and same person as who contacted you. I have been able to find out some things that might be of particular interest to you, your situation and to anyone going through this same thing.
Google- Fair Debt Collection Practices Act using those words exactly. You will find Article 806-1, 807-4, Most of 808, Most of 809, especially 809-5B of interest. This has a lot of information about what your rights are and what they have to comply with.
I would suggest that when anyone writes them in response to the validity of the claim, that it is sent to them registered mail so that you recieve notice that they have recieved the letter, as well as proof of when you disputed the claim. The more records you have, the better. I'm not sure how far they can take any of this, as I have not heard back from them in response to the letter I sent them.

I just got off the phone with a company claming to be Cross Liberman - a collections agency wanting $2000 for my account which was sold to them while my computer had been hacked.
This is a complete load of crap as WoW Account Holders are not actual owners of the account - blizzard is. I basically told this person to go pound sand. What was your resolution to this, did they continue to harass you?

Accounts can not be sold. They are yours. You need to tell them that they can not sue you for something that isn't theirs anyways. If they keep at it, do the account recovery and get your account back. They can't do anything about it.
