Selling a game account, buyer wants bank transfer.

    I'm not quit sure about this. They offered $20 more than what I posted, I don't think I should do a bank transfer tho. I'll just say uh... I don't have online banking.

    Tell them you only deal in cash and use a drop location. Keep the game account.

    Are you retarded? You prefer to use a mickey mouse bullshit electronic jedi cabal over a trusted financial institution?.

    Bank transfers are extremely popular for online transactions. Before I got my online banking game set up I used to buy BTC with bank transfers off cash advance on my credit card.. Felt like free dope at the time but I'm paying for it now +fees.

    There is a way to do it without getting burned. Ask for timestamped pic of his photo ID with his face visible in one clear shot and copy's of all paperwork or you won't ship

    Good idea. Couple more info's:

    -There nothing to ship, I just give login info.
    -Its against the games rules to sell game accounts, so I dunno if I could do anything if he reverses it or something.

    Now that I think about it, there is some slight risk into doing this outside the system. You have to close the auction, etc, etc. You will not have the same protection. I'm just saying bank transfers are especially used among asian people, thats just how they do money.

    I think photo ID pic is pretty good protection though, on Localbitcoin they require a fair amount of verification that you rarely get scammed on there. My vendors were always very cool and it seemed to be secure both ways. Ebay/Amazon should have an option like that with active dispute.

    ^ well, I asked him for that but he doesn't want to...says he trusts me and theres no need for it, he'll send the money first... Can a fraudster do anything with just a bank account & routing #? I think they need a bunch more info. eh, I probably shouldn't. [Advice please]

    If the transaction is between two different institutions, there is a delay, to verify if there is sufficient funds to complete the transfer. If there is insufficient funds, the transaction is cancelled, but this could occur days after the transfer was initiated (and possibly already credited). Don't ship the item until sufficient funds have been verified.

    This call the bank and have them tell you this and ask the persons name before releasing. Or even better, scam the scammer (or possibly honest person). If they elevate now and start getting pissy before the bank has completely verified then you have your answer.
