iam not original onwer i was buyed it and quit and sold it via MM
 
@Michael Aliy You need to refund the payment. You can then work out what happened with the account with the person you purchased it off. Refund the payment to Giomaf please.
 
Banned - investigating
The seller was desperate to sell the account so I think it's actually a hacked account

account not hacked maybe he merge it with account hacked is not my business
 
@Michael Aliy You MUST refund his payment. You still have 10 hours to do so, or you will be banned. Once you refund, you can open a dispute with the original owner if he is from here. Either way, you must refund.
 
I didn’t merged it with a hacked account i merged it with my main in the emails you can see support confirmed i merged with a compromised account which was the one you sold me now my account is banned and i do not have the bought account but someone does as it is still being played on
 
It's clear he won't refund. He has been banned for scamming.

Never pay with WU unless you can be absolutely certain of their reputation. There is no way to recover funds once sent and there is no incentive to refund if they have nothing to lose (because they have low or no rep anyway) by been banned.
Sorry for your loss.
