Question about membership codes

Hey, got a question about membership codes.

Saw many people selling membership codes and wanted to ask if there's any risk using them. Not talking about very trusted people with a lot of vouches and so on, but in general, if I buy a membership code, let's say, from a newcomer, is there any risk for my account to get banned or to get negative membership days? Can't they just sell these codes and after just chargeback money from them or something like that?

Thanks for answers.

 

worst case scenario you pay for a code that doesn't work lol

the risk of bans exist if you do something like use fake creditcards for memberships and such.

 

No ban risks for using codes
