    Hello,

    To make the story short. Yesterday, I tried to buy a Pokemon GO account from here using the "Middle Man" service. The seller "trancer" has been banned today and here is the thing. I think he scammed me by sending me a fake middle man link but I'm not so sure now as someone named John Hen is asking me to stop the dispute so that I can get my refund.

    Do you guys have any idea of this or it's all fake?

    • Case number: PP-004-963-976-879
    • Seller's name: John Hen
    • Transaction date: 16 July 2016
    • Transaction amount: $350.00 USD
    • Your transaction ID: 5GY92290TR016924C

    Email goes as [email protected] is this legit?

    Thanks for your help. This was kinda bizarre he gave me full refund just now. I'm kinda terrified of using this site right now. You guys should kinda provide more clear details about how the middleman service works. I'm attaching in a next message how our convo originally went...

    This was the link he sent me:

    Welcome - PayPal

    Honestly, I felt for that. It wasn't until he was banned that I had a look to that link and noticed the domain after the @

    The guide said something like the seller would give me a link and then the middle man would start a conversation with the (3) of us. Anyway, I will be more careful now but since someone like me who is kinda geeky felt for that. Other people may easily.. I meant... they are exploting the secure way of doing things here

    Thanks for everything guys!
