    and 750 is minimum its kinda low already

    Scammer

    Haha

    Okay I'll buy for 750

    Me:

    Aight so how do these things go. Who goes first n love you

    Scammer:

    Discord

    after we comeplete this deal, can u vouch for me, I would greatly appreciate it

    That discord link is my vouch thread btw

    File Transfer: IMG_1450.PNG

    Me:

    Yea thats me

    Scammer:

    Okay cool

    Me:

    Whats your roblox

    Scammer:

    Johnson0202isfresh is main, I put all my limiteds and robux I get on that account

    Me:

    Well to prove you’re legit will you pay like at least half first and the other half when I give it?

    Scammer:

    But I have no limiteds in stock rn, just robux (72k)

    I'd rather not, I have no rep/vouches and ur playerup page is to new

    Middle man?

    Me:

    Yea how does that work

    I also have 80k to sell

    Scammer:

    So basically there are a list of middle man on playerup with there discord names listed and u add the seller and buyer as wells as the middle man all in a group chat.

    And then we go from there

    Me:

    Alright lemme think about it I got class till 2:15. I’m a student at uga

    Scammer:

    Usually it goes, the seller gives the middle man the item, then once the middle man confirms they have recieved the item, the buyer would send the money to the seller then the middle man gives the account to the buyer

    Okay that's fine I'll take a look at a few middle man and I'll let u know who we can use

    Me:

    Word. Hope we do good business

    Interested in any bux while we at it?

    Scammer:

    Alright what time is it down there? So I know when to contact u back

    Very interested yes

    How much do u charge?

    For robux

    Me:

    $4-1000

    Scammer:

    Okay

    So 320?

    Me:

    Yup

    Scammer:

    Okay cool, so 1,070 all together right?

    And can u make the playerup post u posted as "sold" cuz I'm for sure buying

    Me:

    Ok no prob, just nervous about getting scammed cuz I’m in super unfamiliar territory. Idk about the middleman like how can I trust him?

    I’ll do the robux deal first. I’ll give you 40k and you give me 160, And if it goes well we will do the rest

    Scammer:

    Well it's a middle man so ur not gonna get scammed

    I'll show u who I found

    File Transfer: IMG_1451.PNGSorry I'm in class XD

    File Transfer: IMG_1451.PNGSorry I'm in class XD

    Just look her up on playerup, she's extremely known in the Roblox community, you can also check her recent feedback, she has perfect feedback. She said she is willing to middle man for us

    Me:

    Sure thing I’ll go through with it. Money first?

    I mean robin

    Robux

    Scammer:

    Well it's threw a middle man

    So I don't know how that's going to work

    I can't scam u cuz we are using a mm lol

    Me:

    Yea I prefer to do it that way. When can the mm do this

    Scammer:

    She said 3:30 central time.

    What time is it where you are?

    Home:

    4:30

    Scammer:

    Okay so 6:30 where u are is when she can do it

    Cuz I'm central time and it's 1:30 rn

    That cool?

    Me:

    Oh no I meant 3:30 is 4:30. I’m from Georgia

    Works for me

    Scammer:

    Okay cool

    File Transfer: IMG_1453.PNGFile Transfer: IMG_1454.PNG

    Not a scammer if that's what he said , he didn't wanna use a mm that I offerd and then I just blocked him

    Didn't want my time wasted

    Me:

    Yea I think he was tryna do what I was originally gonna do with the half and half

    Scammer:

    Exactly but I offered him a middle man

    He said "no"

    Wich is a sign

    That he is a scammer

    Me:

    Yo deudas ill give you 40k no middle man first. All I wanna see is if my paypal will work

    deadass*

    Then we’ll do the middle man

    Scammer:

    Na I dont rlly want robux though

    Just items

    Item* that's what I contacted u for

    And if it doesn't work the middle man will just keep ur items till it does, so it's not like ur gong to get scammed or anything like that

    Me:

    I guess I mean this could all be bullshit for what I know. The middle man could scam my item. I’m literally taking a strangers word for it on a random love you websitet

    Its chill tho. So you don’t want any roux any more?

    Please make sure to read how PlayerUp Middleman Services works before conducting any form of business:

    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, kik, skype, or any 3rd party service. All middleman transactions are done through PlayerUp.com for security reasons.

    Middleman: Sellers Guide | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform.

    Anyone claiming they are from PlayerUp on discord or anywhere offsite is trying to scam you.

    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 (Buyers Guide) and here is how it works for sellers (Sellers Guide).

    Is there anything we can do to assist you still with this dispute?
    Please read this guide (Guide - Combat Fraud Service). All we need is the scammers full name and address and we can assist you further.

    What can you do next to resolve this issue?
    Since this is a PayPal transaction, you need to immediately go to PayPal and open a dispute hopefully before the seller moves those funds. In order to do that, go to your paypal receipt, and see the area where it says resolution or dispute payment. Open a dispute and provide them as much proof as possible. Contact PayPal as well and ask them what you need to do to win a dispute. Keep in constant communication with paypal. If you sent the payment by family and friends then unfortunately those funds are lost as you cannot dispute those payments and we strongly advise against sending friends and family payments in the future even if the seller requires it you can easily say no. For more information, please contact PayPal.

    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 funds - Guide - Combat Fraud Service

    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.
