  1. Paypal scam


    two people scammed me by using a fake paypal email, inorder to buy something from me. I have photo evidence of the transactions between myself and the now scammers, is there anything to do, like get my stuff back or atleast ban their account? I lost around
    $100 worth of in game items. I have their gamertags, and the photo evidence saying they would like to purchase this item inexhange for real money.

    :)

    I suggest using Paypal, because this has been known to be a scam site in the past. You'll want the ease and protection of Paypal should anything happen with your purchase.

  6. ok thanks, i didnt want to sell the item. The people manipulated me into thinking it was ok to do so, than they used a fake paypal email and verification. They cant get banned or something?

    You would have to file a complaint on them via the console and the enforcement team will investigate them. But keep in mind that since you also took part, you're at risk for being banned as well.

  9. Your best bet would be to contact the game publisher and report the issue as Microsoft\Xbox does not handle in game cosmetic trades and purchases.

    Paypal scam

    Did you try to sell something off your Microsoft Account? If so that is against the CoC and Terms of Use, so nothing would be done. But, it's best to contact Xbox Support for this issue, here: https://support.xbox.com
