Sorry to hear Stretch. I wonder how many people on the board are utilizing Escrow.com to protect themselves from sellers and what are the results? I got burned before and not willing to venture into buying any big miles from any seller here.

Well it finally looks like users are getting the message that there are a lot of scumbags using this site that would like to rip off unsuspecting people by selling hacked/stolen miles.
As previously stated,
Never use friends family to make PayPal payments and be carful with all transactions, where possible try to book flights within a short time frame of travel and payment using Escrow where funds are transferred after flights have been taken. (Scammers will never agree to this.
Avoid sellers with huge or multiple accounts unless they agree to these terms.
I have been a member here for a while and these sellers never stay long there are none that are still selling (using same name) from the time I joined.
Good Luck in your quest for cheaper travel and remember keep exposing these people.
