“bought a wow account, played it during the night and woke up to the account and email to the account both had invalid passwords. and the same seller snekz has the same account for sale as im typing this.”
“Asked for photos of my entire life story to prove it was me, I comply. They then block every single transaction I make from every card I try to purchase with. There is NO customer support. It sends you to a forum that tells you to buy and pay with CRYPTO. Absolute joke. 0/5.”
“i found a valorant account with rgx blade and many other skins,
If you play Valorant Or CS:GO u know what skins are theyre very expensive
but i saw this guy selling an account with 205 euros worth of skins for only 50$
at first it is really sketchy and things but like the thing said u can verify if the account actually has the skins u saw on the sellers attached pictures, I didnt expect the website to actually scam me, im 14 and i know that u can buy things on the internet while being a minor but my uncle is 45 years old so its not only me who is trying to buy the account i also have an adult helping me i also had his permission to use his card but this "Danna" guy banned me cuz yeah im 14 and yes i know but like going back i have a 45 year old guy helping me so instead of banning me they can just ask me if they can talk to my uncle instead of banning me, i also know what im doing cuz ive been with my laptop for 2 years (since march 2020) basically im a matured 14 year old i dont know if my 50 (+3.17$) will be refunded or not :(
good thing i didnt buy the 200$ one i dont know how im gonna tell my uncle that his 50$ wont be refunded if it doesnt get refunded :( this website has to be taken down
The 5 star reviews are probably bots if u see someone selling an account with 5 stars the worst part is i sent the card details (only last 4 digit on the numbers) my uncle's drivers license and my uncle's name i just hope he doesnt get hacked or something PLS DONT BUY ON THIS SERVER I DONT WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO LOSE MONEY CAUSE I KNOW THEYRE WORKING HARD FOR IT.”
“I made an order for an account, they just started asking me for 100 things to prove my identity, I do it and they want something else I do it and they want it and so on for the 2nd day they don't give me the account and the money is not returned I think it's not fast at all and I don't know if it will happen at all. Even 1 star i think they are very hopeful to read this”
“Be careful with this website, they have all these beautiful offers to attract the buyers like any other company, but there is a big catch. If you pay them via crypto coin so they can approve the transaction quickly you have a big chance that they will cancel the transaction and not refund the money just because they know it’s some triceable and you cannot claim it from your bank. I was a customer for many years on July star paying with crypta they had officially a scam my money. I bought gold for a game once before with no problem, then I bought again and they intentionally cancel the order but they haven’t refund me the money even though I have talk to them many times via email and they just ignore the emails because they know the money it’s on their end and There’s no way for me to claim it back. This makes this company full of scammers, please stay away from this website, I am even concerned about the times that I pay and they verify my driver license and a photo of my credit card, I am seriously concerned because they scam my money via crypto they could possibly do something else with my personal information. Please stay away from this website they are big scammers”
“Same issue as many. They grab your money then refuse to give you your purchase unless you send them government ID. I cancelled my order as I'll take my business elsewhere, but there's still a hold on my money.
Legitimate businesses who want to check identities do so via your membership. Much like when you get a costco membership, you verify your identity on purchasing a membership card. They don't stop you at the exit and ask you to verify your identity to leave or leave your purchases behind and they'll promise to refund your purchase.
So far, the purchase is still holding on my card, it hasn't been released or refunded as of yet.”
“DO NOT SHOP HERE. They have a responsive staff, but their staff are trained to take as much private information from you as possible, far more than a bank would require. I've purchased things from many sites, and for verifying payments, sometimes you have to take a pic of your card or id. Or a selfie. These jokers go farther and want pictures of your bank statements, your card, you holding the card, your id, you holding the id, and they don't want anything blanked out. Way too much sensitive information to give to someone you don't know on the other side of that pc who could do anything with your info”
“I was about to buy from this site but I decided to cancel my order when I was asked for a photo of a government issued ID, driver’s license etc. This is identity theft 101, your date of birth, signature and photo are there. I doesn’t matter if you cover the entire number of the credit card number as what they asked you to do. Lol all they need is a couple of identifiers, which is you date of birth and signature and there you go you’re hacked. By basically providing them with all the photos of yourself, your card and even asking for an online statement that’s a red light right there. You just gave them full consent to take your personal info. Stay away from this site!”
“For a small payment they need: a foto of the driving licence, a selfie while holding driving licence, a screenshot of the bank transfer AND a photo of the credit card, which all must be sent by email. To an online shop!
Never buy here and immediately forget forever.
Worst shop I have come across”
“I wish I stumbled upon Johnny Skagss review (found in these reviews) before trying to create an account with PlayerAuctions. On Jan. 25, I created an account and it was immediately locked. I was then prompted to send over my DL, a Photo of me and my DL, email, address, and cell phone all over conventional email. On Jan 26th I stupidly sent them this information and they came back a day later saying that I needed to send another of myself with the DL. Needless to say, this is shady business to ask for this kind of data when I've not even made a purchase or even used their features yet. After some research, the main headquarters for PlayerAuctions is in Shanghai China. Anybody who read the news or does a search of privacy data with China, knows your data can and will be used for data mining and for other possible scamming issues. There are no privacy protections in China! What a stupiddo I am! Do not give your personal information to PlayAuctions and do not hand over a photo of your DL!!!!”
“Player auctions charged payment to our card and did not provide the logins we purchased. Their customer service emailed and asked for photocopies of ID and credit cards even though the charge already cleared our account. They are claiming we need to provide copies of our ID to provide logins. Clearly this an identity fraud scam as they have already deducted funds from our account.”
“Don't buy here
Hi, so i'm going to go over this as thoroughly as I can.
Let me address the main issues; ID verification. First off, is it neccessary and does it actually do harm? Well to an extent perhaps, but ultimately no it isn't necessary. Why would it be necessary if most reputable companies are fine without identity verification? And, well, does it do harm? Well sure, it does. It definitely does do harm. For two main components.
First, when a business like this is demanding someone to express identification visually, they're employing the idea that they should do this for other businesses. Which leaves bogus businesses as the real attackers. Ones that use this data to sell. It is also simply malpractice as Playerauctions could be selling our data without our knowing. There is simply no protection for your data when you are sending it via E-mail.
And the bigger issue.....If their systems were to be hijacked, which happens commonly among businesses, the attacker now has access to every single person's identification. Even if they delete it, they can download these photos remotely in real time, as they actively have access to their computers. This is the dark side, I suggest you research businesses being hijacked over the internet. Their system's might as well already be hijacked. A person can install a rootkit remotely with simply a link being opened. To their IP being remotely viewed. To, well, a plethora of methods. It is in fact, not hard to hijack someone's devices.
Now, let's address the quality of this verification process. Which is to say, no quality. At all. I sent them the pictures of my identification, credit card - and bank statements. All of them were picture perfect. I could read them clearly and they were very detailed --- each and every time. But they told me to send it again, so I did. And then they told me to send it yet again. . . . so I did. And then, yet again they tell me to send it again, therefore I do. Regardless of me knowing this verification process is bogus on terms of security.
It's virtually impossible to get these people to complete your purchase. THEY WILL NOT LET YOU COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE, I REPEAT, THEY WILL NOT COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE; MOST LIKELY.
I encourage you to look at other people's reviews on this issue thoroughly. I would say it's a hassle to purchase, but that's just it. It's not really a hassle, it was impossible.”
“Bought two genshin impact accounts, initially was fine however after two weeks or so I can no longer login. Raised dispute with playerauctions thinking I would get a refund because I was stupid enough to trust their buyer protection would actually protect me. They closed the cases in scammers favour without much of an explanation. I have escalated to my bank’s dispute team. Fingers crossed I get my
money back and no one elses gets scammed by them”
“Bunch of scammers, Stay away ! Seller has the power to give or not give you a refund. I bought an account, they gave me an email with it, I couldnt change the account email for 3 months, it was in a process of email change. I thought it was ok. I didnt play much, and after some weeks exactly after the email was possible to change again, I tried to login and the account vanished of my email. I did nothing, opened a dispute and argued about account reclaimed. Player Auctions got in the side of the seller... Seller even said it was my fault I changed the email and account password lol... Bunch of SCAMMERS ! To not say wooorse... I lost my money and the account. LoL Outrageous. Plus you will only be able to pay in crypto so guess what, no Paypal or Card protection. Simply Money LOST! They wont see a cent again from me. And I will make sure I leave my reviews all over the internet.”
“PlayerAuctions scammed me for over $400 for a Fortnite account and let the seller get away with blatantly reclaiming it.
I will no longer EVER be using this site since I was even a little unsure if I wanted to spend $400 on an account and now I don't even have it.
TL;DR
STAY AWAY FROM PLAYERAUCTIONS!!”
“I WOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WHO YOU CHOOSE…
I WOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WHO YOU CHOOSE TO DO BUSINESS WITH.
AVOID AVOID AVOID SCAMMERS GALORE AND SUPPORT DO NOT HELP
I have used a seller with 4000+ reviews and paid for the order they finished about 20% of it and then transfered/scammed/hacked my items/gold OSRS took over 250M gp/items.
Now the support staff are just totally ignoring me to 3 days and nothing has to be the worst experience ever, not I am left at my favorite time to play the game with all my stuff gone.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!”
