Dear Support, I recently found a seller on Player Up with the store name "Rude Rush" and discord username sin#8657. I purchased a Damascus COD account and multiplayer game (which I never received) from him in hopes of being able to use this to play with. He said that battlenet was linked to the account, but it was his own account and everything was completely secure and he guaranteed no issues would come from it. He also told me that he does not boost accounts, but on his player up page it is stated that "all accounts are legit and boosted by ourselves." After receiving the account and logging in it was shadow-banned instantly. I've never been banned, and the PC that I logged in with was a brand new build for work, even though hes claiming im HWID. It's not possible. The next day I logged back on to check the account and make sure everything was the same. I was met with Activision login screen. I went to log in and the password and email were changed. I then visited Activision's website and came to the conclusion the original owner of the account had taken the account back, and that the account was originally stolen. sin#8657 refuses to refund me my money unless he can get the account back, which is never going to happen because it was stolen from the original owner. He also claims that he is not allowed to load money onto his PayPal and was unable to refund because his "admin cashed out the funds." All of this can be referenced in the chat conversation linked below. I have consulted with other sellers/buyers on this forum and have confirmed that he has sold cracked accounts multiple times, and refuses refunds every time. I hope that we can come to a resolution here, as I love and trust player ups services. I just hope that I can get my money back. How to Report a Dispute Please fill out all 9 questions below.

@Help @prfnd We agreed for a refund,but seems like he didnt want to return the account back to me and wanting his money back? Also second,we were already talking about refunding you using transferwise after your money from my paypal hits my bank to secure well if you chargebacked via your paypal,which is securing ourself from getting scammed,but turns out on the second day you said the account was gone and vanished? The reason i can't send you the money instantly because when you sent me the funds,i already withdrawed to my bank,i also agreed with you that i will send the money back using transferwise,you can refer to the chat logs you sent yourself. But why should i refund you with no proofs of email changed or sign of recovered account and assuming me that i recovered your account within a day with all the credentials of the account changed,you are only on words without any proofs. Also,you logged in,checked the account and said it was all good with NO shadowbans,but after 30minutes you told me about that your account got shadowbanned?Which make nonsense on this,ask any seller of COD MW,how does shadowbans happens and why do shadowbans happens.The account was clearly not shadowbanned before you logged in,signs are here. 1. You logged in,checked that the first match were COMPELTELY Fine and everything was fine,meaning it is not shadowbanned before you log into the game. 2. You yourself said after 30 minute it got shadowed,meaning IT IS NOT SHADOWBANNED before we log into the account and log out off the account,it is after you logged in,checked a match (Which is not shadowbaned),and it got shadowbanned,anything that make senses here? Alright so you claimed that it is our fault and want a refund,alright im good with it,saying if you returns my account and i will give you a full refund,but turns out you said the account was 'recovered' after a day?We had the account since Sep 28 with OG Email,You had already changed all the details of the account including email,password,phone number,address,and real name,They is no way for us to recover the account even using activision recovery steps,even activision recovery takes up to 7 days for the account to get recovered. https://support.activision.com/account-recovery And now it takes a day for me to 'recover' the account? `The next day I logged back on to check the account and make sure everything was the same. I was met with Activision login screen. I went to log in and the password and email were changed. I then visited Activision's website and came to the conclusion the original owner of the account had taken the account back, and that the account was originally stolen.' You said the original account owner had taken the account back,but you did'nt show any proofs to me or either anyone,you ever tried contacting activision support and what activision support says? You said the account was originally stolen,do you have any proofs for that? The real name,address is all under my name on activision. And you immediately assumed that was a stolen 'russian' account just because i used a domain of rambler.ru. Okay that was all fine until you say the account was 'vanished','recovered',#','cracked',nice assume with no proofs. So basiclly you assumed me,Leaded the account got shadowed,recovered the account back in a day after you changed my account emails,passwords,etc etc in a day by contacting activision support.And easy requesting a refund,it was too suspicious on POV .
And a wow,deleted most of the conversation from your side,making i have no discord proofs of what you said before and leading all the faults to me.
'I have consulted with other sellers/buyers on this forum and have confirmed that he has sold cracked accounts multiple times, and refuses refunds every time.' I do not have problems with 95% of my buyer,If you can show any of my buyer's out and i confirmed that i ever sold them or no via discord or anything,or just tell them to put the proofs here ,if they wants a refund i will give them a refund as well,making lies does not help you in this situation.
'He also claims that he is not allowed to load money onto his PayPal and was unable to refund because his "admin cashed out the funds." All of this can be referenced in the chat conversation linked below.' As i said,i withdrawed instantly after getting the money,and also i have NO Funds in my paypal account. Thats why we agreed for a refund after the paypal funds hit my bank and using transferwise to transfer the money back to your bank account. Another reason why i can't send the money back because i dont have multiple cards like anyone else,if anyone lives in malaysia's know our country's regulation and rules. The only problem is,how do we know you did not ran with the account and making all this up? The reason i refused to refund you was simple,i ain't getting my account back like we agreed,so should i still refund you? Is it even fair for me? Do i know you had changed the details and stuff and acting all this up? You never showed any proofs of recoveries and stuffs. 0. None. Nothing. Your claim is only on all your words.
Funny part is you repeated 3 times russian russian russian account,while i said it wasn't a russian account 3 times
And what you told me is,the account orignally was'nt shadowbanned,but once you had changed the account activision's email address and it got shadowbanned? Ridiculous lol.
@Help @Ryan @RudeRush You agreed to a refund if the account was able to be returned, which it is not because the original owner of the account took it back, BECAUSE IT WAS STOLEN. @Ryan @Help you can read the entire chat log attached via IMGR and a text thread. It was not shadow banned 30 minutes after I logged on, it was shadowed instantly after one que and backout. Reference the chat posted above. There are screenshots and everything. I also made a new account per your request to verify to you that I was not HWID banned + have been playing on my main for the last week everyday with no issues. It's the account, not on my end. When I tried to do an account recovery Activision was not sending recovery emails. Theres tons of threads on reddit about people buying accounts and OG owners claim them back. Here's some for reference. Also -- Sin and Quack Quack both blocked me on discord and deleted me from their server. I still have all of the conversations though. Theyre screenshotted in the IMGR link and the text fle attached in the OP. I didn't delete any messages, thats what happens when you block someone on discord @RudeRush. It deletes the entire conversation lol. You also sad you had access to OG email which you did not lol. You used a temporary email to register the account. Anyone can do this. The account was re-linked on new blizzard account September 28th after @RudeRush unlinked his acct. The activision and blizzard account should be locked for 12 months until 9/28/2021. If this was really your blizzard account you should be able to recover the activision profile no problem!? It's not though. It was a stolen account from another user. If you're the OG owner like you're claiming please provide any receipts for in game purchases, or purchases of the game. I've asked you multiple times for them and you never provided, probably because they do not exist. I can verify 3 sellers that confirmed they bought stolen accounts off of you and they were taken back by original owner shortly after. Regardless @Help @Ryan, if you read through our entire message log its very easy to tell that this was a scam. If they have 95% reviews, maybe some of their accounts are legitimate, but im providing you with enough eviidence to show that this account was stolen. I would like to be refunded ASAP. @Help @Ryan I hope you take action on this and all of the other sellers who are taking advantage of buyers on this market place.
Well you opted to go without middleman services @prfnd otherwise we could have refunded you as soon as you cancelled. With that said, @RudeRush please refund the buyer and this issue will be closed.
Well,I agree for a refund if I was getting my account back,me and the buyer had already an deal before he claimed the account 'vanished',also,there is no way for me to recover the account in a day,so do anyone here think it is possible to recover the account within a day via Activision support? We came to an agreement,he gives me back the account,i refund him,if I don't get back my account why should I refund him? Third that he claimed I blocked him on discord,I didn't,I can still see every chat and conversation but some of the chats were deleted,it was not the same as the one he uploaded here,many convos pointing at him is deleted making him leading all the faults back to me again. Another one,he said the account was not shadow banned within the 30 minutes,meaning it is AFTER he logged in,played for 30minute,after 30minute the shadow bans happened,and he assumed that it was he changed the email of the Activision account causing the shadow ban? Also last,as he said,I have the account since September 28,and the last time I log in to the account was 10/3,even the shadow bans was on my fault,it will be removed on 10/10,everyone knows this,just ask any seller here.and once he log in the first 30minute was fine and it got shadowed after he said he changed the account email address ?Does changing email address gives you a shadow ban
Making it clear here,he had already changed email address and password,real name,addresses before the shadow ban happens.
Also -- Sin and Quack Quack both blocked me on discord and deleted me from their server. I still have all of the conversations though. Theyre screenshotted in the IMGR link and the text fle attached in the OP. I didn't delete any messages, thats what happens when you block someone on discord @RudeRush. It deletes the entire conversation lol. Your lies are bad enough for real,if we still have the OG conversation your lies wont work here Heres all the details clearly shown you had changed the email address and password and even the real name. For the refference you sent that you never reads,they got cracked,while they did'nt buy any accounts,send the 'reference' before you read,What cracked means is simply a data breach,while recovering will show you a case request in your email,do you have any of the proofs that i asked from the start till now? you NEVER Send any proofs,none,@Hulk,Here comes the problem,all his claims are only on words and some deleted conversation. Second for his claim that i uses a temporary phone number and that is my fault again. If i dont use a temporary phone number,i can't log in and check the account since the battlenet requires a phone number in order to play the game,he never think about those lol. Here shows another one,before i give him the account,i tried to unlink it,it was fine without the message that he got,but simply after he logs in shadowbans occured,when shadowbans occur you can't unlink anything till the review is resolved,and after 12 hour the account just vanished? Who else here will trust him? He can just change the email address and claiming he did'nt receive the account or the account had been recovered in 12 hours. Still a no,impossible,i can provides the email login and OG logins info when i deliver the account to him,Do you think it is possible that when i had the account over 3 weeks,activision on my name,battlenet on my real name,only the phone number was a temporary phone number and in a sudden after i deliver to him,the account was shadowed and 'vanished'? I dont agree for a refund,if he agree to give my account back,im still glad to refund him
This is a joke lol. The screen shots you just uploaded are from the second account that you asked me to make in hopes of using the activision recovery service. It's not going to work because the original owner claimed the account back. ** NOTICE HOW IT SAYS WHITEGHOST2#1302243 and the original account sold was WHITEGHOST#7749259. More screenshots are attached of the actual conversation. The full conversation is uploaded via a text file. It's all of the original text exported from discord. I reuploaded just incase you decide to read! @Help @Hulk @Ryan if you guys can't see through this I don't really know what else to say. I'm not going to keep arguing back and forth with this guy. It's clear that he does bad business and could careless about accommodating people who spend money with him, even when he is in the wrong. I also paid for multiplayer and he never included it! Money aside these kids are scamming customers on this platform. The proof is in all of these conversations. Just look at the way he responds, its a bunch of nonsense. I hope justice is served.
Your 'actual' conversation is a joke,by deleting the convos your conversation means nothing,making up everything does not help you,we have all the proofs here if you want us to upload
@Help @Ryan @Hulk i’ll let you guys take it from here. I’ve explained the situation and provided the appropriate proof that was requested. Thanks for your help.
Original infos when i deliver to you. You verified the email on your side,matching everything inlucding the original activision ID. You logged in with the og mail and stated after that the account was shadowbanned after you change your email? And it instantly disappeared when i asked to you to return the account? I still remembered what you said in the conversation,which was deleted by you. I was asking you to return my account and we will do a refund instantly on that time, On that moment you told me someone signed out and the account just vanished on your PS4? Are you actually kidding me lol. Those lies are just stupid and so easy to see,making lies still does'nt help you at all.
