The number of hacked accounts is significantly on the rise.
I've seen a lot more in the last few months than I ever have in the last 3 years.
My current favorite gold farmering trick is to catch some of them using trial, lvl 1 accounts to spell out their web site name in one of the major cities. They have each character lie down and use the shape of the bodies to spell out the domain name. This tends to take them a little bit to get right.
I love stumbing across these guys, as I get on my biggest land mount and block their view (by standing over them), and then call for others to do the same. I think I'm 3-0 with them, where they finally give up and log all the characters off. Take that, goldfarmers!!!!
