I did like Blizz said last night and reported one of the spammers, and over an hour later I get an automated response that they are looking into it. I would think even if they delete their toon after spamming that Blizz has some record of it and could trace it back to the account, but who knows what really is going on behind the scenes. All I know is I constantly see the bots and farmers running around day after day and not really much seems to be done about it. Of course, if so many people didn't buy the gold in the first place, they wouldn't be in business...

BTW, typical interaction that happened to me yesterday as my level 60 priest was browsing AH.

*trade window pops up, closing my AH screen*

whisper: "make"
whisper: "water"
me: "I'm not a mage"
whisper: "yes"
whisper: "make water"
me: "I AM NOT A MAGE, GOODBYE"
*hits ignore*
