    It's becoming well known of fake middleman on PlayerUp. We have guides on the website in multiple areas on how our PlayerUp Middleman Services works. We will have to change somethings around to make it more obvious to people.

    When should I release my account information to the buyer?
    Never release your account information unless (@Middleman) contacts you through the PlayerUp Conversation Ticket System. We will never contact you through e-mail, PlayerUp, skype, or any 3rd party service. All middleman transactions are done through PlayerUp.com for security reasons.

    The account was banned because the system automatically detected the user as fraud and banned him.

    - From the screenshot, he registered to the website Friday so I assume the transaction took place on Friday/Saturday.
    - He had 0 points
    - He had no budges
    - His username was **Middle-Man**

    Why did you think this was an official PlayerUp Middleman?

    Anyway the next step here is you should contact the game publishers and recall the account. That's all that can be done here. Our system will continue to lock these people down but there is only so much we can do.

    Heres a tip for selling an account

    When a buyer has added you on skype etc, always make him post a comment on your post.this way you know who youre dealing with (if its a new account, 35% chance could be a scammer. So, never go first and always use a middleman.(even if its someone who is verified still use middleman(safiest route))

    Second, if no one is buying your account. This could mean that the price is way too high and that you should reduce it.

    Finally. Always and always check thqt if a middleman outside playerup.com or a middleman that does not have a moderator status under his name (also with over 5000 post) will 100% be a scammer. Middleman, will never use 3rd party program.

    Btw if you do happen to come across someone who is impersoniting. Block them and report them to dispute.


    Goodluck on your sell and becareful

    Well it wasn't a buyer to begin with. It was a scammer. You'll eventually find someone interested. Online video game sales typically peak between Christmas to June.
