Something i noticed. Protect your self.

[neverthat]

As of late I noticed a lot more trades for gc or cd keys.

Nothing to special just noticed a lot more of it so it had me thinking. You can always recall a PayFail(paypal) payment most times but you cant reclaim a used gc or cd key.
Even if you can recall the Paypal funds there is still time for them to take it out send it or worse use it to scam someone else.

So my advice would be to send them the money to go and buy there own keys if you have the funds to do so.

This has most likely been around for a while or I just missed it but as I said I noticed a increase.

Just some advice i thought i would share to protect the Markee Dragon members.

Oh feedback and comments or anything else related is most welcome.

yeah there's a lot of small time scamming going on with codes keys etc. in my experience one out of 30-40 transactions is a scam

if you're selling quite a few or like game codes or something sell one per buyer to protect yourself from someone buying entire batch, using them up, then reversing paypal or something like it

I dont get it? So this is a post about people protecting themselvs from scammers who recall paypal payment. Then you say to not get them scam you give them your money for them to buy their own keys. I dont get it

 

[neverthat]

you can recall your own money you cant recall a gc.

"So my advice would be to send them the money to go and buy there own keys if you have the funds to do so."

Soo umm why would someone pay someone so they can give them the money to buy their own cd keys?

Im sorry but I dont get your advice.

 

[neverthat]

you can recall your payment.

so instead of handing out a cd key that cant be recalled.

you hand them money (digital money) then they can go online to stores and then buy a cd key.

if they screw you over on the deal you claim a dispute you get your money back and they have a neg.

if you cant comprehend this i would not worry about it.

I am with him it makes no sense at all say a GC cost $29.99 and he pays you $28.99 your going to send him $29.99 so he can buy it online while he sends you $28.99?

Or say its an even $29.99 that hes paying you why would he buy it from you and not just the store? Makes no sense at all.

"As of late I noticed a lot more trades for gc or cd keys."
