BBC NEWS | Technology | Cursor hackers target WoW players
Topic: Games 7:19 pm EDT, Apr  5, 2007

Research by security firm Symantec suggests that the raw value of a WoW account is now higher than a credit card and its associated verification data.

One card can be sold for up to $6 (�3) suggests Symantec, but a WoW account will be worth at least $10. An account that has several high level characters associated with it could be worth far more as the gold and rare items can be sold for real cash.

A WoW account is worth more than than a credit card. Bizzare.
