    Me:
    Has playerup contacted you? i just purchased for one of my client.

    Them:
    Wait, did you pay already???

    I was actually in the middle of a transaction with someone else

    They still haven't contacted me either way, but if already paid you should probably get a refund.

    Me:

    yes thru bitcoin

    Them:

    As I said, I was in the middle of a transaction with someone else and hadn't just updated the listing.

    You should look into getting a refund.

    @PeteRich


    How can you protect yourself from these type of scams in the future?
    I strongly recommend in the future to use PlayerUp Middleman Services to protect yourself from these type of scams. Here is how it works for buyers (Middleman: Buyers Guide | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform. and here is how it works for sellers (Middleman: Sellers Guide | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform.

    What can you do next to resolve this issue?
    Unfortunately, your funds have been lost as Bitcoin does not reverse transactions.
    https://bitcoin.org/en/you-need-to-know

    Can PlayerUp provide compensation for this dispute?
    Since this is a non middleman transaction and PlayerUp wasn't directly involved with safeguarding your payment and guaranteeing your transaction we will unfortunately not be able to provide any compensation for you on this transaction as you dealt directly with the individual for which you're submitting a complaint against in this ticket. However if you're able to locate his full name and address, we can possibly go after him but there is no guarantee we'll be able to recover any lost property or funds - Guide - Combat Fraud Service | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform.

    How can I protect myself in the future?
    We strongly advise that you don't conduct business offsite. This is the #1 way scammers attract buyers and sellers is they lure them offsite and then bait them into anything because they have no consequences for their actions. If you did business on site, then disregard this message as the majority of scams are done offsite.

    @PeteRich , change your prefix to "Need Payment Update" or "Need Middleman Assistance".
