“This company seems to be super sus with their process of securing the payment! Like who asks for someone to send a pic of themselves, a pic of themselves with their ID, the card that was used for this purchase picture and a bank statement. I went back and forth with their support about this as they report that it is to protect them from fraudulent buyers and I was suspicious of them being fraudulent so I canceled this order. Thankfully it did not go further than that. Google pay or PayPal should be good. I have been shopping for a long time and through this pandemic, I shopped all over online and no place has ever went through all of this for a payment! I am 100% convinced that this company is a scam without a doubt. Watch out and beware!”
“We bought a Fortnite character from a seller account called Chicks. The character we bought was suspended by Fortnite within 24 hours. Chicks refused to refund us or give us a replacement. We lost all of our money and my son was devastated. I will never use PlayerAuctions or Chicks again.”
“Scammers! They will allow you to register on their site, let you selling and then ban you when you have money on the web and you can't do anything because user agreenment allows them to do it. ( Binding no explanation needed and it's legal ) There's basically nothing you can do against it”
“Tons of verification steps and private information needs to be sent for small purchase amounts
Above 10 dollars or somewhere close that, normal payments via google pay or credit cards needs a ton of verification which should not be nedeed and does not make a user feel secure. I dont find it necessery for a website wanting all the following for such small purchases:
+ A clear and colored photo of your government-issued photo ID
+ A clear photo of you or a "Selfie" while holding your ID beside you
+ A photo of the front of the card used for this transaction
+ A screenshot of your payment receipt. To get this, log in to your Online Banking...”
“Scammers! They will allow you to register on their site, and then immediately ban you (i.e. steal your personal data and sell it)
In their minds, people only use VPN because they want to scam someone, not for privacy reasons.
Bunch of unprofessional clowns...”
“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!!!!”
