    Hey there @Middleman ,

    I wanted to buy a Fortnite account, specifically this one:  Selling -  High End -  PC - Level 82 Account All Characters except valentines day characters | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform.
    The buyer and I have discussed details on skype, and he said he wants to be paid in PayPal. However, I do not have a PayPal, as my only card is linked to my University's fees account. I am willing to buy the account through Amazon gift card (which I can purchase for cash at CVS or Walgreen's Pharmacy), which I can put $150 into the Amazon gift card. Is it possible that if I pay through the middleman buyout link via Amazon gift card, that you can pay the seller through PayPal? So technically I am giving you $150 which you can then redeem on Amazon, and then pay the seller of the Fortnite account (AJ) through PayPal?

    Thanks,
    Ciawz

    And of course, I am willing to cover the Middleman fee if we do PayPal. For example, I could add $160 instead of $150 in the Amazon gift card, then you could just transfer $150 to seller and pocket $10.

    @Middleman also, can I pay through Vanilla Visa gift card via Middleman? I would like to do Amazon though as it is quicker and easier, then you could pay the seller with PayPal?

    I bought this account from this guy,  Sold - Level 82 Account All Characters Except Valentines Day Characters | PlayerUp Accounts Marketplace. Player 2 Player Secure Platform.
    I went first in trade and gave him $150. Then, he gave me access to the account, but he did not give me the email address that is registered to that EpicGames Fortnite account, he said he would request an email change once EpicGames makes it available and that he would contact them. However, 3 days later, he changes the information on the Fortnite account and then blocks me on skype and doesn't talk to me again. I thought he was legit, because I went first in trade and he did give me his account and was willing to change the email on the account when available. The reason he did not provide me with the email was because it was his personal email address or something...

    EpicGames does NOT allow you to change email address yourself:
    Epic Games |

    How do I change the email address on my ...

    Since this isn't a middleman, moving this to the disputes section.

    Post more details here. This is a non middleman transaction so we can't specifically resolve your issue. The other moderators can try though.

    Well, that is basically what happened, I paid $150 for the account, went first and he did give me access to the account but he did not give me the registered email address to the Fortnite account. Although, he was willing to change the email address on the EpicGames account once available. But 3 days later, he changes the password on the account and does not reply back to my messages on Skype. He blocks me and scams me out of $150.

    He's already suspended. Thank you for your report and sorry to hear about the lost. This case is resolved.

    You could have been protected if your payment was made via Middleman service. We recommend you to consider using Middleman service next time. Please find more details here.
