A Florida man has been arrested because he didn't play fair in World of Warcraft.
According to an Associated Press report out of Clearwater, 23-year-old Christopher H. Bouffard was arrested on Monday after he collected $760 from at least two people in exchange for World of Warcraft characters that he never delivered. He was arrested on charges of scheming to defraud and two counts of grand theft.
The incidents occurred in 2008, when Bouffard allegedly solicited the money in exchange for the characters, but cut off all contact with the individuals once he received the money.
He was being held on $20,000 bail. No word on what Blizzard plans to do with his account, or whether he even had one to begin with.
