    What if someone on Clraik sold an active account that was owned by another member?

    I was just thinking about this. If one member lists an active account saying 280-300 avatars, 10+ mil pure, nice pets blah blah sdb gallery's unchecked. What if it happened to be another member on this site? Has that ever happened? I'd be pissed if one of you stole my account

    It has happened before, and there has been conflict.
    It's one of those grey areas of the cK market.

    Isn't everyone pissed to loose their accounts? It's the hazard of playing Neo with us around. I was pissed when I had access to an account that 2 more people had access to and when I asked for a compromise, the one selling it screwed me over. Win some, loose some. Change your info regularly and you're good.

    There's not much of that, especially on the trading scene.

    Interesting. I guess it really is survival of the fittest. We help each other as much as possible, but we might take down one of our own. It's interesting to think about. And we can't tell each other our accounts publicly. And most don't trust each other enough to. It's a paradox. THE CLRAIK MATRIX

    I've never bought/sold an account so I haven't experienced that. You lost the money then? Or whatever that you had paid for the acc

    In reality, the majority of people on here know how to protect themselves from each other. Regularly changing passwords, having a secure email etc.

    I would be annoyed to lose my account but there is no way of knowing at the time.

    If I accessed an active and found out it was a regular on here, I would definitely give it back <3

    As for the only accounts I care about, I do just that pretty often. There's still a small window for someone to come and get my account but if they were to go through that trouble, the hacker might as well get a higher end account than mine

    I ought to be more careful and keep my account more safe....but I believe in honor amongst thieves, though of course for that to work a majority has to agree.
