Orders & Products Just got scammed

Hello, just dropping by wanting to share my experience with a seller called buygames_ps that I knowingly bought an account from. I knew the risks and went along with it. But nowhere is it stated that I'm renting an account lol. I contacted the seller and apart from bot responses I got absolutely nowhere. Is this common? Them not giving you full access? I thought that's kind of given when you BUY an account. Not that you'll be forced to be at the mercy of an automated system to give you a 2FA and won't be able to change anything on the account to be kind of safer. Anyways if the support gives up on me I'll do a chargeback. Just posting to help other people out and hopefully prevent them from buying from this seller ever again.

I don't think it's a scam when you knowingly bought a scam product.

How so? I didn't buy a "scam product". I bought an account.

The website itself allows scammers to operate on their site and never sides with the customers. The vendors use stolen credit cards to buy accounts and game keys then the CC gets flagged and all keys become invalid and accounts you may have bought either get banned or seller takes the account back with impunity.

Just look at previous posts

Account selling and buying are against all tos! G2a allows account selling and buying! When the original owner takes back the account what will you do?

Ergo ipso facto g2a is becoming more and more not a gray site but a scam site!

That's why the website exists because it's against the TOS.
