Wouldnt you know it
So this morning I woke up to an e-mail explaining that heroic measures had been necessary and through a miracle that defies description he recovered the accounts (mind you customer service was apparently not necessary since they were closed overnight - or perhaps I just don't understand the international date line). He was able to change the passwords and the answer to the secret question (NOT). Although he chose the SAME question - the answer he gave me now actually works. There is nothing in the question history and I know he did not call in so I also know that everything in his e-mail to me was complete BULLSHIT. However, I did recover the accounts.
He then proceeded to give me a tongue lashing for doubting his integrity and explained to me that he is wealthy and going to dental school so why would he ever contemplate such a scam? He is also done with EQ forever so why would he care if he is banned from this site and labeled a scammer (even though he isn't one).
So, case closed I guess. However, in my eyes this does not right the ship. His intentions were not good and his story is so full of holes that you would have to be a moron to believe any of it. My belief is that the threat of retribution helped him turn the corner on doing the right thing. I think his IP should remain banned from this site and he should still be considered a scammer but, for now at least, I have access to what I paid for (even though it was 800 AAs light). Every fiber of my being believes he will try to regank the accounts the next time an EQ withdrawal stikes him, though, so most likely I will need to move the toons to fresh accounts without the burden of veteran rewards
