Britanska banka
Halifax blokirala je sve transakcije na račun
Blizzard Entertainment-a. Kao razlog za ovaj potez, Halifax banka je navela povećanu stopu ukradenih kartica zarad plaćanja
World of Warcraft pretplate.
"We have seen a significant number of fraudulent transactions through Blizzard's gaming sites. We have, therefore, blocked the majority of Visa/Mastercard transactions we receive from there in order to combat this. We do not believe the fraud is anything to do with Blizzard themselves, their sites or the integrity of their billing systems, rather it is site users utilising stolen credit card details to pay for subscriptions," the bank said. "If a customer does want to subscribe to a game site operated by Blizzard, using a Halifax or Bank of Scotland credit card, we can arrange for the payments to be processed for them if they contact us."Kako ovo zvuči, nije u pitanju Blizzardov sistem naplate, već nemogućnost ove banke da utvrdi da li je reč o ukradenoj kreditnoj kartici ili ne. Zvaničnici Blizzard Entertainment-a se do sada nisu oglasili.
