    hello playerup staff and thank you for awesome website for buying and selling accounts. But i have a problem when I agreed with a person that wanted to buy my account and we agreed on the price and he said he wants middleman to get involved in this and i said sure why not and i asked him about the fees and he said it’s completely free you dont need to pay anything cent and I agreed and we contacted a mm from here and we was happy to make the process fast but the problem is that i am on ps4 and seller is on that playform too! So epic games recently removed account linking due problems and outdated erros so we thought the middleman would contact epic games and unlink the account and i get the money but it didn’t even work! And we waited months to make the purchase process done but we cant and I decided to drop the process so i can keep the account for myself and sell it to pc player so we dont need to wait but the mm requested 100$ from us 50$ each. But i said I don’t have that money and he said loan it from a bank or a friend but im 17 years old i dont have a bank account so i dont have any money and i wanted to sell that account to spend the money on food and stuff etc.. but he declined the idea of having no money and after a while i was on Alt account and i found out that the middleman is playing solos in the account and i asked him what are doing he said im checking the account for safty although he changed skins and kept playing.. what is that kind of middleman like im sorry for saying this but i need my account back i never knew you have to pay money i only read and heard its completely free.
    Please i need the account back.
    Thanks for reading!
    Otherwise if that didn’t work i want my money.

    Mm contacted me through e-mail.

    Do you use K,I,K, Skype, or another messenger service?
    No. All middleman transactions are done through PlayerUp.com for security reasons. Anyone who attempts to contact you through a 3rd party messenger claiming they are us is fraudulent.

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

    I'm confused here. Somebody from [email protected] e-mails you randomly saying they're a middleman? Did they say they are from PlayerUp?

    You're not getting it. All of this, all of these communications, this guy conned you. We don't communicate via e-mail, EVER. It's clearly noted on the website. This guy signed up for a @gmail.com and claimed they were us. He is the middleman and the buyer is also the middleman. It's the same person who pretended to be us to bait you into his scam.

    Furthermore, you should know by the way poor grammar and @gmail.com (why would we use an @gmail.com?) that this isn't us.

    You need to RECALL the item that you sent to him.
