Other information: I attempted a Purchase of a SWTOR Beta account. I had made a post stating I was looking for one. He sent me several PM's as well as emails on my, and his, gmail account. I will post the screenshots of our conversations following this post. After he requested a payment from Paypal as a gift due to me not being a repped user. I Submitted it and he refused to accept it since it didnt clearly state it was a gift. He refunded THAT payment. I proceeded to make another payment at his request, he accepted it after a screenshot proving it was a gift payment and has not spoken to me since. This was the 14th of August.

Thanks, I appreciate that. Directions are not hard to follow, not sure why people have issues with it. As for the recoup of the money, I'm working with my credit card company to reclaim it. It's kind of made me weary of online transactions now.
 
I got PMs of him trying to sell me the same account but when i said id only pay half up front and half after i got the info he stopped responding when he figured out i wasnt gonna pay it all right away which was a huge red flag to me so i went somewhere else.

I refunded your second set of money back to you. I'll post SS's in a second.
 
Keeping this updated. 6.5 Hours after "I refunded your second set of money back to you. I'll post SS's in a second." Note the past tense, already done phrase.

Still no refund or resolution.
