    Automated Response​

    Thank you for submitting a support ticket with the middleman automated support department.

    Please note that this support doesn't handle middleman/playerup purchases/orders/payments as you'll need to follow the directions below to reach a middleman agent. Your ticket won't be redirected so please make sure to follow the directions below:

    Middleman Support - "Active" Orders
    Please note that this support is for non-middleman related issues only. For all middleman support questions, please use your Private or 3 Way Conversation Ticket already opened. If you don't have a Private or 3 Way Conversation Ticket opened, please click here to contact middleman support directly. Please also note middleman support is currently experiencing some delays on their responses so we ask that you remain as patient as possible.

    Middleman Support - Non "Active" Orders
    If you don't have a Private or 3 Way Conversation Ticket opened, please click here to contact middleman support directly or click here to post a help ticket.

    In order to reduce spam, we ask that you don't open multiple tickets over the same transaction as this could cause additional delays on your order. If you have a ticket already opened, please use that ticket and respond back to that ticket for an update. If you need an urgent update from middleman support and they're not responding, simply open a new ticket here and request for an urgent update. Delays can occur but rest assured middleman support will address your ticket as soon as they can.

    Apologize for the delay on getting back with you here. Unfortunately you dealt with a fake middleman scam email and you will need to contact the game publishers and recall your account. You can verify this by checking the @ email that sent that email to you. It will come from a non @PlayerUp.com email. They conned you into thinking you had a buyer on PlayerUp but the reality is they simply wanted to steal your account to resell. PlayerUp doesn't do business offsite through email, discord or any other 3rd party platform to avoid scams like this.

    Did you read the website before you decided to transfer this information over to this random person who was sending you an e-mail?

    There are Seller Protection Icons listed all over every single thread on this website so people read them before transferring any payment or account information.



    When you click on them you go to this page: https://www.playerup.com/support-tickets/knowledge-base/middleman-sellers-guide.20/. At the very top, we clearly posted:

    How will middleman services contact me?
    All middleman transactions are conducted on PlayerUp.com only. Never release any information, perform any service or release any payments if you're a seller unless @middleman contacts you through the Conversation Ticket System. PlayerUp Middleman Services will never contact you through e-mail, discord, steam, Facebook., whatsapp, kik, skype, or any 3rd party service. If somebody contacts you offsite claiming they are from PlayerUp, it is a scam.

    In addition we post:

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