    Got scammed, looking for some advice

    The situation is I got scammed by a kid that had good vouches, I went first and still got scammed.

    Link is here: http://www.sythe.org/report-scammer/1565699-scammed-reasonable-vouched-sythe-member.html

    He got banned for this.

    Now I really want to get my account back, I'm reading it's always very easy to recover an account. However, there was no email address linked to the account, and now there is, but that's his email. How do you go into recovering an account if you don't have the email? I can answer all recoveries and w/e.

    PS: This isn't advice regarding scamming, but regarding getting a scammed account back.

    Thanks in advance!:D

    Send an email with the details from when you owned the account to [email protected], although you could be waiting quite a while

    Yeah I know, but I figured it would be safe since he had like 10 positive vouches... guess vouches cant be trusted either >.<

    Anyways I'll send a mail, thanks!

    It's great you haven't been put off the black by a scammer, and glad to hear you got your account back.

    Protip though (my personal opinion) - Don't sell/buy accounts, things like what you have encountered already will happen constantly

    Tell them the account was hacked, and you can provide the IP address the account was made with and it will match your current IP. That will recover it like 90% of the time.
