i use this method to trade my money to my 2nd char on the same Server. not this high but selling 1 charcoal for 50k and buy it with my main char is quite normal.
i pay the fee but im save to not get tricked.

You can send gold just by nickname in New World. No need to do any other types of transactions. Why would they bother themselves with AH taxes, etc?
You can’t do that anymore.
Even when you directly transfer items, eg trade some BiS for gold? 
Yes, you can exchange coin via face-to-face trades, but you can no longer just send people coin like we used to do…with just there Character name.
Wow! Maybe it’s just because I’m not doing any RMT so that’s why I didn’t noticed it
Then anyway it’s a question I have to ask: why would RMT bother to do face-to-face not to spend any money on AH fees? Honest question, I really do not understand. Did we have anything like a big wave of bans because of RMT? I don’t think so, coz even bot bans were not anyhow big, more like solutions for some particular situations/issues with some really often reported accounts/nicknames
Have you opened your inventory in the last 6+ months? There is no longer a “send coin” button.
So wait… I can list my corn at insane prices and people will buy it??? I am SO trying this when I get home.
Thank you for the info, OP! 
The fact that it’s gone and to notice that it’s gone is two different things 
As I said, I used it maybe once during previous year, so def not something I been paying attention to xD
Probably someone trolling, most rmt is done face-to-face.
Hang out at the bridge by the shrine in WW sometime. You’ll see a lot of top bruisers/musket players from megacompanies hanging out there for a while, trading with some random farmer account (either low level or a random 60 in full mining gear), and then showing off their new gold cap BiS piece in chat shortly afterwards.

So wait… You mean I “can’t” sell my corn for stupidly insane prices? Maaaan… I was looking forward to doing that later and becoming super rich. Ugh!
Idk my company when we owned everfall and WW used to keep a coconut for sale at 499k for like 8 months cus it was funny
why bother with tp and tax when you can direct transfer to sell and buy gold

I dont know exactly how RMT works so I cant say if this is actually a method or not but if it is, the reasoning I can see behind doing this is simple;
If a player buys something from another player its a legit trade of items for goods in game, possibly a legal move or workaround.
Reaching for the stars.
It’s not that obvious when you don’t participate in RMT

Ikr. When I first saw stuff like this a year ago it never occurred to me it was a RMT. At first I thought it was players thinking they would get rich off something practically worthless. It wasn’t until someone clued me in as to what was really going on, that I found out. This is why I posted this, for people who don’t know.
Also, it’s a layer anonymity. If the Governor of “Super Company X” shows up to bring you your gold… Well then it’s just a matter of time before the whole server knows that, Super Company X is making real money off of Winsward/Everfall/Ebon/Etc.

It’s possible this corn was for RMT, but I doubt it. I’d wager it was just someone being silly in an expensive way.
There’s nothing preventing gold sellers from simply transferring the coin to their customers directly. In fact, I’d say that doing something like the corn shenanigan you shared would only bring attention to the sale. Whereas a direct transfer would be simple, quick, and easy.
Funny as hell, but this looks more like someone bored than RMT. Possibly RMT but I wouldn’t understand why anyone would do that, not to mention the trading fee required by both parties involved would not be desired.
Being banned is way less desirable than a small sales fee. You don’t have to believe it, but when you come across stuff on a daily, maybe you’ll begin to question how many expensive comedians we have vs RMT’s. Ntm would a clean number like 500k be funnier than 380k, kind of an odd number and not nearly as funny as gold cap. But I digress.
Sure, if putting it on the trading post actually masked the sale then what you say has merit, but you and I don’t know if it does, and I don’t see why it would. Trading post sales are probably very easily tracked.
Also I do look at the trading post a lot and I don’t see this kind of stuff, but your account and my account on that are purely anecdotal and meaningless. By the way when I say I’m looking at the trading post, I mean thoroughly searching for irregularities.
Look, people are buying gold all of the time and the bots aren’t a secret. We probably all know someone who has bought gold, I knew a couple people who did at launch, and their experiences were the same and from the same website. A person or persons with broken English directly transferred gold to them in-game. Furthermore, have you heard of anyone getting banned for RMT? Can you imagine how difficult it would be to prove a transfer of currency from one player to another (whether it’s via the trading post or directly) would be? Simply stating that “well it looks like RMT” would not go over well.
The fact is the gold sellers & bots appear to be primarily broken English players who transfer gold directly. We can see the bots, the websites aren’t a secret, and we have second hand knowledge of the process. There really isn’t any mystery about how this is going down so no, I wouldn’t bet on a corn sale being RMT. And I definitely wouldn’t bet on the trading post adding any layers of security when it comes to masking RMT.
Also, this idea that pvp companies are the primary gold sellers is baseless. I don’t doubt that it’s happened, but again we see the bots and the websites aren’t a secret. We see obvious botting and gold selling happening all around us, but we disregard the obvious and blame pvp companies because pvp companies are the boogey man here.
For the record I play solo, but I have played with big pvp companies and I am familiar with that life.
