Yes, very common scam technique.

Well considering this was done using EpicNPC - Shall I release the name of the person in question?

If you'd like it that is...

I obviously didnt give the guy the account.

 

[EpicNPC]

Yes, please create a thread in the Active Dispute forum and post their username and the Paypal email address they used.

Instead of paying someone, you're sending them invoice for the same amount. So should the seller fall for that trap, not only he loses the account/item, he also ends up paying for his own account/item
