Blizzard recently added an anti-gold-buying page to their website where they explain the impact of gold-selling on the game.
The page basically intend to make people aware of what kind of practices they support when they buy gold. According to the page Blizzard tracks where the sold gold comes from and a very high amount of the gold that the gold-sellers have access to comes from hacked accounts. We regularly track the source of the gold these companies sell, and find that an alarmingly high amount comes from hacked accounts. These are the friends, relatives, and guildmates you may know who have gone through the experience of having characters, gold, and items stripped from them after visiting a website or opening a file containing a trojan virus.
On the page the effects ingame are also mentioned and how the companies that sell gold usually employ people who bot and spam. In other words, people that just make the gaming experience for the honest players become a pain in the behind. The page is quite informative and we recommend reading it, even if you have no intention at all of buying gold.
