Send all evidence to Anet support, and if they can find reason for a ban/suspension they'll deal with the guy.

A bit out of topic but I saw this ^

How is it possible that the dude who got the GWAMM in the screenshots completed it in less than a minute?

He finished vanquisher and then probably had the supplies for the last few titles. And there's no indication that it was less than a minute.

Something like this. Notice the titles he is finishing.

Basically what he/she is doing is completing all the titles except for the very last bit (9,999 sugar points, 9999 party points, 1 elite short of whatever campaign it was, etc). The last thing he/she killed in the final vanquish (title #1) was the one carrying the elite he/she didn't have (capped it, got title #2), then just popped the sugar and party item to finish those off (#3 and #4).

Just takes a bit of organisation.

Always check the offer... always! In short there is nothing you can do about it. A.net will not help because they have warning systems in place.

I should have been clear. the email in my post was regarding a scammer. Proof that Anet actually do investigate and punish in this regard.

Arenanet will take action against the scammer. I had a similiar case once where a scammer tried to cheat me. I took a few screenshots and sent them in. He was banned the next day.

However A-net will not return your Zkeys or gold to you. Sorry, but thats that price you paid for not checking. Look on the bright side, at least you're learning this lesson now with Zkeys and not with your online bank account.
