Please spare me with the "get wrecked" or the "you deserve it comments"…I get it.
I saw a post on here,by u/PhilosopherNo8080, advertising that he was selling his CODM account. I made an offer and someone was nice enough to put up $100 as the deposit,and we made an agreement to finish the payments in 2 parts-$35 then $40…the person seemed like he needed the money for some emergency and I naively assumed he was being honest. Right after I made my last payment and sent the POP, he straight up blocked me. Getting scammed is both infuriating and embarrassing but I thought it would be best to use this experience as a lesson for others in this community. DONT buy accounts and also, MODS please stop allowing people to post these, some of us are naive enough to fall for this bullshit.
(Like I mentioned I was scammed by u/PhilosopherNo8080…I have his address, phone number, bank acc number and his real name, he's based in the USA, and I'm based in Africa(imagine Americans scamming Africans lmao) so local police can't help, and the money sender said they are working on the reversal, of which I'm not counting on that.)
But like I mentioned, I don't want any of you guys to fall for such scams, which is why I named him. Even if you do buy an account someone can just report it as stolen and someone can reclaim the account, OR it can get straight up BANNED by Activision and CODM. DONT DO IT, don't be like me 😔
TLDR; got scammed by an "account seller , got blocked, and yeah I'm pretty much cooked.

I just opened his profile, he’s begging other people for money🤣
Buying a codm account these days is like fishing in a public swimming pool
If you learned a lesson, then you should move on.
If you want to buy an account, although is against TOS make sure you look up due diligence of legit people you can actually meet.
Also… you’d be a fool to think that’s not a stolen card/acc number and fake address.
You could’ve bought yourself a double cp event pass and save it for the next Chinese mythic character.
Sorry that happened dude. Always make sure you use something like PayPal that has buyer protection. And in general don’t buy codm accounts, it’s against their tos and can get you banned
Posts that are offering to buy accounts are banned here, but for some reason not r/CODM
This was happened to me 2-3 months earlier to buy steam accounts. Dude robbed me in daylight.
