    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.

    Very 1st post.

    That account in the screenshot is a fake account. Only @Middleman is the only account that is a middleman account on the site. The account above just signed up just to scam you. They have no feedback, recent signed up. Why did you transfer funds/your account to this person?

    Just because somebody contacts you on PlayerUp doesn't mean you can instantly trust them. This person conned you. Please recall the account.

    There is no way to get the money. That user was simply lying to you.

    You should recover the account ASAP as you've been scammed.

    I got my account back through the recovery form I sent to the FGO management team yesterday. No noticeable damage has been done to the account aside from the consecutive login counter being reset to 1, so I'll be putting it back up for sale.

    I blame my impatience for this incident, and not looking closely enough at @Middleman being an actual account name. Thanks for the help.
