I received a negative from a user "Joshue" for a transaction that never ended up happening. Since he was a new member, he was willing to go first, and I was already skeptical since I've already been sold a few bogus keys by foreigners. I have all the chat logs and screen caps necessary to prove that the transaction stopped at the point I found out the key was already in use.
Here is the screencap that I took when I tried to redeem the already used key he gave to me.

[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:33:22 AM] joshue26: damt -.- no luck
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:33:39 AM] Sean Smith: Any clue where your friend bought it from?
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:34:39 AM] joshue26: he told me from a chinese or someone like that but he doesn't want to tell me who because he sell it for more cheaper lol..
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:35:28 AM] Sean Smith: Ahh. That might be the problem. Those websites have pretty bad record keeping and occasionally give out a bad key or two
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:39:33 AM] joshue26: bah. well maybe u can check it in a few hours more
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:39:54 AM] joshue26: mayb it's an error or something or someone used it before with a key generator or something like that lol
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:40:21 AM] Sean Smith: That would have to be a ****** keygen, never actually saw one that work.
[Wed Dec 28 2011 06:40:37 AM] Sean Smith: I'll be at work by a few hours, but I may be able to get a break and check it
[Wed Dec 28 2011 01:48:57 PM] joshue26: u tried recently? xD
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:18:00 PM] joshue26: U there man?
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:18:46 PM] joshue26: my friend who sell the key says that mayb u put the key in another swtor acc and u created a new one and put in there trying to show me that's it's already in use lol..
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:51:05 PM] Sean Smith: Well I didn't. It be a bit dumb for me to risk getting my mmobay account banned over like 60-something bucks.
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:51:25 PM] joshue26: mm the key alrdy say its on use
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:51:26 PM] joshue26: ?
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:51:54 PM] Sean Smith: Yeah, I tried it once again at work.
[Wed Dec 28 2011 07:52:14 PM] joshue26: damt
[Thu Dec 29 2011 08:18:04 AM] joshue26: I should use your account first to test the key :-( now my friend doesn't want to give me another key.. damt
[Thu Dec 29 2011 11:17:13 PM] joshue26: man are u there?
[Thu Dec 29 2011 11:31:16 PM] Sean Smith: Yes, I am, but I'm on my mobile.
[Thu Dec 29 2011 11:32:07 PM] joshue26: so.. still no luck on that key right? lul
[Thu Dec 29 2011 11:32:50 PM] Sean Smith: Haven't actually tried it since I last did.
[Thu Dec 29 2011 11:35:55 PM] joshue26: or try calling bioware lul
[Mon Jan 2 2012 12:28:52 PM] joshue26: man i just bought now 7 swtor keys all hve worked .. it's wierd only ur key and the other guy scammer from the forum didnt works :S
[Mon Jan 2 2012 12:31:24 PM] joshue26: and i sent a ticket to bioware of the key i gaved to u and they told that someone is using it at the same time i gived it to u :- lol
