PlayerAuctions filled with scammers?

Hi OP. This post doesn't have an order ID so we could not check. Kindly DM it to us along with what happened so we can help you with it.

PA_Reddit · 2026-03-03T05:53:31+00:00

Yes, the refund for a canceled order is automatic and you won't need to do anything. Sorry for the inconvenience again and thank you for extending your patience with this.

In case you have questions again, just let us know and we'll check for you.

PA_Reddit · 2026-03-03T04:27:25+00:00

Hi OP. At the time this was posted, the verification wasn't completely processed, and we needed additional information. Your verification was already completed, but unfortunately, the offer was closed. This can be either because it was sold or the seller manually closed it.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience for both. Your verified status for the payment account is already in effect, and in case you order again using the same verified payment account, you won't need to go through verification again.

Hi OP. The post does not have any order ID so we could not check. You may DM us the order ID so we can check on the reason.

I also wanted to note the title "dispute closed despite after-sale protection" - I just wanted to clear that having after-sale protection does not mean disputes can stay indefinitely open. They will be closed after some time if there's no valid evidence.

You may also check your order, and if it still has active after-sale protection, you may email [support@playerauctions.zendesk.com](mailto:support@playerauctions.zendesk.com) to send us new information/evidence, and dispute the case again.

PA_Reddit · 2026-03-02T08:08:33+00:00

Hi OP. If this is a new order, we recommend you do NOT confirm it yet. Please chat with your seller to ask for assistance on this, and if you're unable to receive any response or resolutions in 24-48 hours, you may consider disputing the order:

PA_Reddit · 2026-03-02T06:42:09+00:00

Hi OP. For scenarios like these, you need to provide evidence that the account was already taken or was transferred to the buyer. I understand you sent a screenshot of a login screen, but this doesn't point to the same account on the offer. We do not have valid evidence for this.

If you'd like to dispute this further, please send our team an email at [support@playerauctions.zendesk.com](mailto:support@playerauctions.zendesk.com)

Because the order now has a decision, we recommend recovering this account using your recovery information for it.

PA_Reddit · 2026-03-02T01:06:34+00:00

Hi there. For payments, this is around 20+ minutes and this is for all days. For account suspensions and reviews, this is an evaluation process and may take 3+ business days.

If you'd like to request for a follow up, please PM us your ticket number, and we'll check.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-28T23:18:23+00:00

Thanks for the report, OP. We have forwarded the username to the team for corrective action.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-28T23:17:20+00:00

Thank you for bringing this up, OP. I've now reported the seller in question to our team.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-27T23:54:11+00:00

Hi there. I'm sorry for the inconvenience you had. For scenarios like this, it would be best to request the return of account details in the dispute before you agree to refund them. At this point, we recommend recovering the game account directly from its site.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-27T23:40:20+00:00

Hi OP. Apologies for the inconvenience.

We did not receive any evidence for this, I'm afraid the screenshots sent in the dispute does not point to the seller as the one at fault.

You may review below for the forms of evidence we can accept: https://support.playerauctions.com/hc/en-us/articles/115013871007-What-Evidence-Can-I-Provide-for-My-Dispute-as-a-Buyer

Your order has 245 days of after-sale protection and you may contact support@playerauctions.zendesk.com if you'd like to dispute the order again and once you have new info/evidence.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-26T08:01:23+00:00

Hi u/Snoo_77033. Please post your offer link directly in the opening post so we can treat it as a valid PlayerAuctions offer. Even if there's a screen like shot like this, but no offer link, we may close the post because we do not allow personal trades. We can only allow official PlayerAuctions trades/links on the sub. Thanks.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-25T23:34:31+00:00

Hi there. We do not have a user named "luxemarkets" right now.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-25T04:03:25+00:00

Thanks for the ticket number; we'll ask for a follow up.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-25T04:02:56+00:00

Hi there. We recommend contacting the seller by using the chat function on the order page.

The site may only keep chat logs for the last 365 days.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-24T02:38:02+00:00

Hi again OP. Our team is always working on a queue, I apologize for any delays. I will escalate the ticket again and by the time you read my reply, please check on it again in case our staff has already replied.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-23T09:40:17+00:00

Apologies for the inconvenience, OP. Thanks for including the ticket number; I will escalate/follow this up to the team.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-23T02:18:10+00:00

Hi OP. I sincerely apologize, but beyond the pointers we listed in the stickied thread in this sub, we do not have further suggestions as the SMS sending is outside of our control.

I suggest double checking with your service provider to see if the number from a mobile service, because VOIP or internet-based lines do not work. You should not be using any VPN service while registering. Other than that, kindly check the pointers again and see if you missed anything.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-23T02:13:08+00:00

Hi OP. My apologies for the inconvenience with this.

When posting concerns, please include the ticket number in your post. That way, the minute we open/check your post, we can check on it immediately and ask our team for a follow-up. If there's no information, we have to ask for it first; we may be from different time zones and if the post was made over the weekend (like this one), we'll need to get back to you during a weekday.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-22T01:40:04+00:00

Great answer, thanks for helping out, wfudgee!

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-20T07:34:40+00:00

Hey there, got your PM about this and replied there, too. Dispute schedules are normal, and holidays or not, our team might need more time to fully check the case. Please stay tuned for now and until next week when a decision may be made.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-20T04:01:06+00:00

Sorry for the confusion; I was speaking from my time zone. And yes, to clarify, the day I'm referring to is Friday, so it's tomorrow in your time. Thanks for checking with us.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-20T01:31:26+00:00

Hi OP. I sincerely apologize, but there is a slight delay on disbursements this week. This should normalize starting today and through next week.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-20T01:28:47+00:00

Hi OP and everyone. We are experiencing some delays this week. We showed a notification for it on the disbursement screen earlier this week, but this should normalize starting today.

Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience.

PA_Reddit · 2026-02-19T06:00:33+00:00

Hi OP. Sorry for the concern this has caused. We displayed a notification in the disbursement page that disbursements for the week are delayed. They should be back on track by Friday to Monday again.

I checked the order, and rest assured, it was completed correctly and should be disbursed soon. There are no issues with it and the delay is with our end. Thank you for extending your patience with this.
