“**A Deeply Frustrating Experience with PlayerAuctions.com – Excessive Verification Demands and Poor Customer Support**
I recently attempted to establish myself as a seller on PlayerAuctions.com, hoping to leverage their platform for legitimate transactions. However, what followed was one of the most unnecessarily complicated and frustrating verification processes I've ever encountered with an online marketplace.
**Immediate Account Suspension Without Just Cause**
The moment I completed my registration, my account was abruptly suspended solely because I accessed the site through a VPN. While I understand security concerns, this immediate suspension without warning or explanation set the tone for the terrible user experience that followed. Many legitimate users employ VPNs for privacy reasons, and a more reasonable approach would have been a simple notification or temporary restriction until verification.
**Never-Ending Document Requests**
After reaching out to their support team, I was subjected to an absurdly invasive verification process:
1. First, they demanded a **selfie holding my government-issued ID**
2. Then, they required **multiple scans of my identification documents**
3. After days of waiting, they finally "verified" my account
4. Only to turn around and demand **a video recording of my ID documents**
Each request came with 24-48 hour response delays, stretching what should have been a simple process into a week-long ordeal. The most infuriating part? There was **no clear explanation** for why each subsequent verification step was necessary after the previous ones were already approved.
**Complete Lack of Transparency**
At no point did their support team:
- Explain why a VPN triggered an immediate suspension
- Provide clear guidelines on acceptable verification documents
- Offer a reasonable timeline for resolution
- Have any apparent escalation path for unresolved issues
**Questionable Data Privacy Practices**
I'm extremely uncomfortable with how many sensitive documents they've collected without:
- Clear information about how my data will be stored
- Who has access to these documents
- What their data retention policies are
**Final Verdict: Avoid This Platform**
PlayerAuctions.com has created a marketplace where:
✅ Legitimate sellers are treated like criminals
✅ Simple account setup becomes a multi-day interrogation
✅ Support responds slowly and unhelpfully
✅ Verification requirements keep changing arbitrarily
There are far better alternatives available that respect users' time and privacy. I strongly advise against using PlayerAuctions.com unless you enjoy submitting personal documents to an opaque verification process that may never actually end.
**Rating: 1/10** - One of the worst marketplace experiences I've ever had.”
“People need to be extremely vigilant with this company. They scammed me out of my money. They logged into my banking page unknowingly to me too and totally caused damages to my financial life simply because I wanted to better my life with investment. This company should not be allowed to operate anymore. They should be shut down entirely and be investigated thoroughly. TheresachinRecovery INC came into my rescue after I took the bold step of trying them out despite my doubts at first, a lot of thoughts and fear held me down for awhile before contacting them through email: t h e r e s a c h i n 1 2 1 2 @ g m a i l . c o m

“I want to extend my heartfelt wishes to each individual reading the comments on this platform and express my gratitude to the administrator who established such a vibrant forum for discussion. The information in this letter will have a significant impact on your knowledge if you invest in cryptocurrencies. Please read it carefully. For the previous two years, my family and I have been trading cryptocurrencies legally, but we haven't suffered a loss as severe as the recent one when our money totaling $911,000 was stolen by a broker who robbed us of our coins. We made every effort to file a report and recover our money by contacting the police department in charge of investigating fraudulent situations, but nothing was successful. We merely wanted the broker to assist us in mining some coins so that the sudden decline or reduction of Bitcoin won't significantly affect us, but we ultimately fell victim to fraud. I told an acquaintance about it, and she gave me the access of a hacking group, TheresachinRecovery. Which is how I got in touch with them via email: t h e r e s a c h i n 1 2 1 2 (at) g m a i l . c o m
Call/WhatsApp: + 1 2 3 4 3 0 0 1 5 4 4 , and I got along well, and when I told them everything that had happened to make me fall for the scam, they provided me with the assurance that I didn't need to worry because they made sure i have my money in my wallet within 72 hours as promised. I'm so excited and will continue sharing the good news of my redemption.”
“I made a purchase only to be greeted with another email instructing me to share an image of my drivers license and a photo of me holding my debit card. No thank you. That screams scam. Then when I canceled immediately and was told that I'd receive a refund in 1-22 days. Which is insane. The whole website is sketchy and shady at best. Avoid this site.”
“Seller took back an account i purchased for fortnite. I took out the 12 month insurance cover which means nothing. I started a dispute and was found in favour of tbe seller. This is not the first time it has happened this is a scam site do not purchase from here use eldorado instead.”
“The worst support you can find, they respond for weeks and with template messages, they don’t solve the problem, they blatantly take my money, in the end they took away my account with 400+ dollars and the support is silent.”
“Absolutely terrible customer service, I made an account a few years ago, forgot my login so made a new one, they suspended both accounts, had me send them emails explaining everything, they then made me send them proof of identity and other personal information that I didn't feel comfortable sharing, after all of that they ignored my emails and eventually got back me to saying that they would not reinstate my account due to security reasons, they refused to clarify what the actual problem was, it was most likely down to something silly like some information such as my address being different on my old ID card than the one I provided as my current address but they refused help, if this is the customer service they provide then I really wouldn't like to be one of the people who have trusted their platform to spend money on and make a purchase with.”
“Worst experience buying minecraft
accounts, they made the whole process
difficult. After a day of back and forth the
company sided with the seller, I was left
with a mc account with 2 days of game
pass left. Save yourself the trouble and usemcalts.net”
“Fraudsters! They deliberately block accounts with large balances for no reason at all and ask for the same documents for months. Prices are 30% higher than on other sites!
If you want to be left without an account or without money at any time, then this is the place for you!”
“Player auctions immediately bans accounts upon creation and tells you theres nothing they can do and you deserve a perm ban. Must be a scam website. DO NOT RECOMMEND”
“horrible company. asks for government id, selfies etc for payments less than $20 even a $6 payment. NO actual real person to contact, only auto robot responses. and when refused to give ID, be prepared for a LONG wait to get your money back. better off buying on ebay, might be a little more but atleast you dont have to deal with the privacy issue, taking selfies and giving government id”
“Got scammed on a
Playeractions
And logged a dispute, the seller said all was okay and playeractions closed the case nothing I can do.
No help and I paid another 6 usd for" insurance "
Total scam 60usd”
“Scam site just collects your information
Made an account, instantly it got suspended. Submitted a ticket to resolve this as I thought it must be some automated mistake.
A day later a support emails me back basically telling me "f*** you this decision is final and biding, have a nice day" without providing any explanation.”
