Buying a char is a self-scam

CAJAGI · **Joined:** Jan 2007 **Posts:** 32 **Location:**

Im just wondering..

Why do people buy chars from people they dont know for example 3bay..

Isn't it like..like when u buy it the sender will tell u 1.secret answer 2.account name 3.password ..

BUT

account name and password can be changed by using the secret answer..means..

U will change old password to a new one ..start playing..everything is smooth and nice...BUT after for e.g. after 2 months of playing odl owner of the accounts ( who still remembers the secret answer) will decide to play again which means he will change the password again..steal all your items u got since u bought the
char..means..u loose everything.. do u get what i mean?

Doesnt it work like this????

I don't think it's worth tro buy a char from someone!

Sorry for my english im in hurry!

Thanks for answers

Which is why ebay will no longer sell virtue items, i.e. game accounts, game gold, game items, etc.

That is why you change your PW and e-mail when you buy account(Which is illegal) so ex owner can't change it.
Also,
"account name and password can be changed by using the secret answer..means.." ID can't be changed

Brain anyone?

1) All accounts remain property of JoyMax at all times and must not be sold because JoyMax has not authorized the selling of THEIR accounts.

2) This is a common scam in ALL online games.
