Hello community,
The amount of people not taking the right precautions when selling/buying is ridiculous. There is an extremely easy way to prevent yourself from ever being faced with a fraudulent chargeback. Heres a quick guide on how to do it:
Step 1
Always confirm the person your talking to on Skype through private message on OSBot.
Make sure they send you skype logs of the conversation!
Step 2
The seller of the gold must first request an identification card, either school, state, or government issued. If the buyer has one the he/she scanned online, I personally would not accept it. There are professional ID makers out there, and are experts at making the ID name match exactly the Paypal owner.
Step 3
With the paypal email the seller logs in with:
specifically tell them to email you this exactly:
Title: "Virtual Goods"
Body: "I, (Their first and last name), hereby confirm that I am purchasing a virtual good for (Amount) (Currency) through my Paypal account, (Their Paypal email)."
Also, they must add attachments of their Identification Card and their Paypal Home screen (Where it shows the balance).
Example:
Make sure the email address both match.
As of here, they do not. I would automatically reject the buyer or tell him to try again.
Step 4
Now look at their ID. Their ID name must match:
* The email the buyer has sent to you
* Their PayPal screen they have sent to you, to represent that they are the owner of the account
Step 5
Now tell them to send the payment. Make sure in the notes before they send the payment:
The reason behind claiming that this is a virtual good is because PayPal does not cover intangible goods, such as virtual in-game currency. You will automatically lifted of the chargeback and receive your money back.
Step 6
Enjoy the money in your account, rather than the scammer's.
Now you have more than enough evidence that the owner has sent the money. Call Paypal and tell them all the information that he has sent you, and you are sure to win.
I better not see anymore losing chargebacks!
