    Sell through PlayerAuctions, the only safe way to make sure money stays.

    Paypal isn't safe, as long as buyer has a credit card, your money is never safe. Even if it's sent as gift, even if it has a note added in it, because buyer can always claim unauthorized payment and say the hacker did all that, so what's the point? And most claims are won by the buyers therefore netting a lose for you.

    I highly recommend www.playerauctions.com, use this forever. Never accept Paypal payments.

    Once the money is in your account, send it on to another account (For this you need to have two paypal accounts).

    This works, until you get scammed, then you need to find a third paypal acc.

    What if my current checking account is linked to my paypal? Wouldn't paypal just take it directly from my account?

    PlayerAuctions is great, except for the fee's they charge, but it's definitely worth it for the satisfaction of being safe.

    to avoid getting scammed 100% do not use paypal, 80-90% trade with trusted people with vouches and a member for atleast 3 years

    I wouldn't advise to do this. At first, when I started doing it, I thought it was a good idea too. But after a few weeks both my verified and unverified PayPal accounts got limited, because of having more than one account on an IP. Then I tried making a new one and it got limited within a day. So do not do this. Unless you are over 18 and can provide all the information to get the accounts unlimited.

    Im doing this with legit accounts ofcourse, and i have had no such troubles over the years, but you do have a good point.

    (If it matters, both my accs are verified, and one is a buissness.

    Impossible to not get scammed when dealing directly with paypal to paypal, I advise PlayerAuctions if you want your customers to pay with Paypal, fee's are a bitch, but you'll sleep sound knowing you won't get charged back/disputed.
