Hello,

Since this trade was made outside of the game there is no way to verify the details. I am not able to do anything about this. It is a case of buyer beware I am afraid.

I wished to trade for this account above, I contacted the guy through the forum PM, gave him my msn addy, so I speak further with him. We deliberated and after a agreement I would give him my messiah of the indu account for a LG+1 account. We each gave each other the login details, only after did it not work for me 2 times did I realize something was up, so I quickly logged back into my main account and changed the password, again we spoke and he tried to give me the same login, it still didnt work, but before I could change the password before, he stole close to 400bill and 4mill uu from my account along with 1.5 k turns. Then he just randomly left and I havent heard from him since.... his msn was mailto:hellboy@siol.com I knew the guy before as the Ice_Queen, and thought i could trust him, but I guess not. If a admin or someone could help me right away I would appreciate it.

Technically the trade was made inside the marketplace, he was selling the account and it was not real, his intent was to scam others as well, How can any trade be outside the game, when technically to sell/trade your account anywhere else would not merit any kind of territory for the admins to be able to do anything at. Did you not ban his account, trace his IP, it intersects with myn, I am sure you have some way to trace the resources traded away. If you can do anything I would really appreciate it. peace

the admins cant take any responsibility when it comes to account trading, simply because they cant control the process...

Yes but the way the admin put it, hey made it sound like they can be responsable and do something about it, if certan conditions are met?

Bottom line, Mark said nothing can be done. Buyer beware.
