Has anyone else experienced this with PlayerAuctions?

[Optimistic]

Some little shit scammed me for lol ->20M Gold(which is $16 out of his pocket and $13.22 out of mine.) After delivering the GP, I asked him to confirm the trade and he decided to dispute it instead. I had sold 40M a few minutes before this and it went extremely smooth(person ended up being an Official MM on Sythe.org), so I decided not to take screenshots of this next trade thinking that maybe people on PlayerAuctions were more mature, but no... some retarded little shit with terrible parents is out to steal an hours minimum wage from people's pockets.

The idiot even asked me for 1M for a "good review" and pestered me about my merchanting methods as if delivering the GP within five minutes, getting his attention in RS without using any alert words when he wouldn't respond on PlayerAuctions and selling him the GP for the low price of $0.8/m wasn't enough.

PlayerAuctions are retards. I sold 40M right before this transaction, and have a long standing good review for selling an account.

When I google this dickheads e-mail( [email protected] ), it lands on some disgusting web site asking for pictures of naked women.

Fuck this kid;

I'm just wondering if PlayerAuctions would have sided with me if I had screen shots(whether or not I should continue to sell there)? What kind of screen shots would they want? Share experiences please; thanks! At least the poor bastard only had enough to scam me out of my minimum purchase quantity of 20M.

Pretty sad for 16$ guy just needs to get a life Would of been better if you had pictures as it's proof

 

[theGuitarist]

Never really thought it was possible to get scammed through player auctions, seeing with their system and sellers/buyers having to have legit information. Really is sad someone would scam through player auctions go through all that trouble even making a story...

I guess having proof will convince them to believe your side of the story but I still would continue using PA you was just not lucky this time =(. PA is one of the best places to use with your paypal and I actually haven't heard people scamming or bad trades at all through that site besides yours

Just charge back what I did even though the sellerr was legit lmfao.

Wow idiot x.x

The thing is he did this after I e-mailed him asking to confirm the trade, as it would take 72 hours to finish that step, then another 72 hours to disburse the payment on my confirmation alone. I'm guessing the child did it JUST BECAUSE HE CAN, as most children do.

Imprison the parent, spare the child.

 

[Grrr]

Should always just video the trade and ask them to confirm before clicking that accept button..

 

[Optimistic]

Do the power sellers request people to confirm before they deliver the gold? PlayerAuctions just sent me the Paypal payment for my good trade and I'm deciding if I should stick with PlayerAuctions and start taking screenshots/video(and maybe asking buyers to confirm before I accept the trade?) or switch to Google Checkout and build a web site. Only thing I'm worried about with Google Checkout is credit card fraud as that's basically the same issue with Paypal(losers stealing people's financial accounts/identities).

Stick to playerauctions and take pictures next time.

So when I lose this dispute, will the scammer be able to leave me negative feedback or will everything be over with?

Eh... scratch the above; I'm moving on to greener pastures anyway.

 

[HappyFace01010]

That's just sad. Why would you scam that small amount?

Idiot, enjoy your ban.

No, I highly doubt so.

If you made a successful trade before that as you said, They might reconsider and help you get back your money despite you don't have any evidence.

PA is trying to be safer than PP for everybody but it looks like the exact same....buyers can just get their money back...great

no?

Take 2 screens, 1x the 2nd trade and 1x the trade accepted.
Always tell your buyer you are taking those screens and that they must confirm or PA will open a fraud claim. Never had anyone trying to scam so far

 

[The Don Kiluminati]

This is what I would do. Have an msn convo up, ask their PA name, make sure you ask what rsn they are going to collect the item/gp on, print screen this. When your in a trade window with them, type this in the box (dont press enter) - I am trading with PA NAME here, for this amount.

And print screen that. Should hopefully be enough evidence.

Didn't think you could with PA regardless.
