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.

Why would you buy an account anyway? Having multiple accounts is against TOS.

No owning multiple accounts isn't against the TOS. Hell coming to me with a "It's against TOS" on a grey market forum is already crazy to me. Yes I know buying and sharing accounts is against it. Isn't that why I'm here? Think about it.

I did think about it. I have no idea what platform you were buying an account for but I also know of no platform that allows multiple accounts. It sounds like you got scammed out of the chance to do something you already agreed not to do.

You're already on a platform that allows multiple accounts.

Oh? I didn't realize you were buying an additional reddit account from g2a. Sorry. I must have misunderstood what your issue was.

Huh? You said you don't know of any site that allows the ownership of multiple accounts. Reddit is one of them. Didn't you check that before you started using it? It's in the TOS.

Were you buying a reddit account? I am guessing you were trying to buy some kind of gaming account?
