It's an old method, and the reason Blizzard put a 1 hour delivery in game on market sales many years ago. This allowed Blizzard to catch transactions by methods unkonwn, though I'm sure it didn't stop the practice completely.

I will say though I never saw many bots in wow and generally whatever they did there, they found a way to do it right. FFXIV is infested, yet I sitll think Guild Wars II was worse. The market in GW2 tanked crazy fast, and you could literally find places where 25 bots were farming easily. At least the market on my FFXIV server has allowed me to make some gil and sell farmed stuff reasonably well.
