Scammer Profile: @PlayerAuctions
Desc. of Issue: I purchased an account from playerauctions with full insurance and from a seem to be legitimate seller with 491 feedback and 99% success rate. I purchase this account around January of 2019 and was ecstatic and having a great time until the account was recovered by the seller by "mistake" and I opened a dispute and we worked it out and I considered his information to be correct and to be a mistake by accident. He said he still had the account in the database and forgot to take it off which made this error occur and oh boy... silly me for believing him. The dispute fell through because I got it back and thought it was all good. Now, just two days ago he did it again. I have no authority to log into the account which I bought and put hours and hundreds of dollars into to make even better than it was prior of the date of which I bought it and now I cannot dispute it as well because the previous one fell through due to my ill-attending to it because I got my account back and totally forgot to check back up on it. I'm stuck and honestly - hurt. The $200 I paid for this account is just a minor consequence but rather time and exponential amount compared to what I bought it for that I had put into it. I was 200 xp off from 99 strength too. Such regrets and hoping you can help me figure out this issue. I want no business with this account anymore. Second time it has been recovered. Absolute shame.

Evidence of him recovering the account once and offering me "half my money back" or giving me the account back (which is total BS to begin with) on the first time he "accidentally recovered" it:

Him recovering it the first time and changing the email back (probably after finding nothing of use in the bank):

What I believe is going on?: I believe this seller with 491 positive feedback is using it as a tactic to recover accounts. He sells these accounts and knows how to manipulate the customer by bending around PA's rules because you can "only dispute once" and you're shit outta' luck. He definitely knows this... I can sense it and he just played me (for all my time and effort put into this account and my bank which was hundreds of dollars) and PlayerAuction's terms. This is absolutely unfair and I cannot imagine how this in any way is logical or has even occurred. I am baffled beyond belief. PlayerAuction's is responsible for paying me back for the "insurance" I purchased from them for this sole kind of reason. They're just as bad as the seller on their site in this case.
