    Am I going to get scammed?

    Okay, so like many people...I am moving onto WAR.

    So I thought I should get some cash for my WoW account.

    I met from what it seems like a serious guy from Realpoor.com

    I talked it over with him.

    I said between 500-600 bucks.

    So he offered me 550.

    I said that's fair.

    I'm aware of how it's rather easy to scam over Paypal.

    He said, once I see the 550 bucks in my paypal account, to give him the e-mail change, PW, and ACC info.

    He said he's aware he can recall the cash for 90 days, so after the initial 90 days he needs the last name, keys, and SQ and SA. To ensure he doesn't recall the account.

    So I'm wondering, is there anything he can do? Andy recourse he can take so he keeps my account and takes back the cash? Or am I set?

    Suggestions? Will +Rep for help.

    Am I going to get scammed?

    Don't do it, tell him the account info, and say after 90 days you'll give him the rest, if nothing goes wrong, he'll have the account, otherwise recall the account.

    Yea, I advise reading up on some of the threads in the Scams section as well as Scams help. Knowing the ways of scammers is the best way to avoid them imo.
