Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good?
GamePal Inc. they took all my account info yet never paid my through pay-pal, and doesnt seem to want to fix the issue Internet
I am here trying to sell my wow account for a bit of spare cash, times are tight and not everyone has a steady job at the moment, I put alot of work into this account had a fully best in slot geared level 80 mage along with a geared holy paladin, a 65 shaman, and a 58 warrior. Gamepal Inc. appraised my account at 726 dollars, hastily i accepted this offer thinking great, thats a h*ll of a lot of gas money.
I submitted all of my information without any prior research on the company and have heard nothing since they got all my account info. Some friends of mine have told me that they have seen my characters come and go on my wow account, the company seems to hide behind smoke and mirrors to avoid payment at all costs, shortly after submitting my info i have heard nothing but bad things about gamepal. today i got 3 email replies to the many i have sent, they were all auto generated. I have been looking for a phone number for the company for a few days and stumbled across 919-575-9648, when calling 800-goog-411. im tired of all the deceit and just want either my money back or my account. but live chat is never online for accounts and nobody gets back to me. The phone number is also for some reason blocking incoming calls. Hmm sound a tad suspicous?
The following is a copy of one of the many chats i have had with the live support of other "entities" of the website

Well. Probably the only thing you can do, is call Blizzard and tell them that you have been hacked. More than likely they will restore the account for you. I would do this ASAP. I imagine the closer to the time it actually happened, the better. As far as taking them to court over this, there is very little that you can do. However, you can file a report with the BBB and Attorney General's office. Gamepal is a Company completely built and surviving on fraud. They are "buying" accounts and not paying for them. They are also going back to people that they have bought accounts from in the past, and trying to file false collection claims on them. They are doing this in hopes to get those people to recall the account and hand it over to them, yet again. When that happens, they will resell it. They seem to be in this circle of fraud. Eventually it will catch up to them and they will be held responsible for what they are doing. They appear to be hanging by a thread and doing anything they can to keep their finances afloat. Just try to get your account back and file official complaints. It will be a pain for you to have to do this, but don't let them win. They ripped you off.

You do realize that you will probably never see your money for this? Its against blizzards rules to sell accounts or gold for real world currency. Your only hope is to contact blizzard directly and tell them your account has been hacked and they may be able to restore the account. As for suing this company, the account you have with blizzard does not belong to you and you have no legal right to sell it. IE: you are trying to sell something that you do not have the right to sell.
