There are several myths in the post, e.g. the idea that there are people with packet sniffers at the "bottlenecks" of the Internet who are somehow able to steal your account information when it's used by a Chinese guy working a 14 hour WoW Gold farming shift, but not when you use the account normally.
Account sharing is against TOS? That's stupid. Don't the expect families to share a single account - at least for a while? You don't just run out and buy 3 copies of WOW. You buy one and let all test drive to see who is actually going to play, then you buy individual accts.
He roughly divides players in 4 groups, Explorers, Socializers, Achievers, and Killers. Of course everybody is a bit of everything, I'm much of an Explorer, a bit of Socializer and Achiever, and not at all a player Killer. To find out what you are, somebody designed a Bartle test questionaire that gives you your Bartle (or ESAK) quotient. They also have extensive statistics, showing for example that killers are more likely to play Shadowbane, or the scores of some "famous" people in the genre.
I don't know anything about packet sniffing, but I do know that for buying a WoW Powerleveling service you need to send that person your password, and the person you sent it too might well decide that selling all your stuff is worth more than doing the WoW Powerleveling job for you. And then you have problems explaining what happened to Blizzard.
So whereever the danger is coming from, if you absolutely want to buy a powerleveling service, it is safer to do it on a fresh account. You can always move the character for $25 to your old account later and delete the second account.
