Never attempted to send any actual money. Just tried to sucker me into giving up the account.... I just want someone to go through the middleman service to be honest. You guys know what you're doing. You do it right. I would like to do it that way, and that way only. What should I do?
that's a big transaction, whats the currency? is it USD? You should contact the game provider and ask for support to retrieve back the account, obviously its not a good idea to tell them that you were trying to sell the account off so just say you got an email of some kind of rewards in-game, opened it then logged in your account to get the rewards but now you cant access your account.
Well I would like to clarify that im the seller, not the buyer. Doesn't seem like I can actually edit that part out... The guy is calling me the scammer. I don't get it, he never even tried to put up any money, and he has an account. Should I just say to people, go through the middleman service provided, otherwise don't bother?
@shoxshox You have a dispute here. @Elliot Brewster Better use middleman transaction which is always safe.
Yeah, I said I would like to use the middleman service and he said no... If people aren't interested in using it then I should just end the conversation there. I don't get why that guy even uses the website if he calls the system a scam.
Yes, i know you are the seller and i just told you how you can try and retrieve back your game account.
I made a trade with this guy in the morning, he just keep telling me not to use any other middleman service, and use the family and friends option in paypal. I choose another which can hold the money in paypal before I receive the account, he was pissed off and told me to transfer another amount to his account since he got only half the money. And then he insist me click the completed button which would make me unable to refund. I felt kinda weird, so I checked the email of his paypal account and find this tread.It turns out that he change the id and try to sell the same account to me. It was quite horrible of such things, I think I got greedy when such a good account sell at such low price. I think that the site should pick up those guy from time to time, or it would ruined the credit record of the site
