Confused about negative platinum balance

[Kesti]

I've been getting into rolling and trading rivens recently and have been hearing about fraudulent platinum being removed in the game and leading to bans. So i just want to get clarification on this.

If I:
1. trade a godly riven for platinum,
2. spend some of it so that I have less platinum than whatever that trade was, and
3. the platinum turns out to originate from a stolen credit card and gets charged back,
Will
A) the platinum get removed from my account?
B) Will I get banned my platinum balance goes negative?
C) Can I get my account back without purchasing platinum?

Thank you for reading (and maybe anwsering).

My understanding, based solely on reading forum posts about this, is that the answers to your question are:

 

yes

yes

no

A) Yes
B) You won't be banned but you'll have to pay for the plat to make it positive (or, see point C)
C) Maybe. You'll have to deal with Support to get it resolved. They will decide what happens.

A- yes

B- yes, but that depends on C

C- no

Actually yes, he will get banned if his plat balance is negative. He then can buy plat to get it back in the positive.
He could ask Support about that, but it's not all that likely that he will get unbanned without paying.

A lot of misinformation about getting your account back without purchasing platinum. You definitely can, but it requires the proof you got that platinum by a legit trade and it wasnt a purchase of "black" platinum. So if you have relevant screenshots(of the trade in question and conversation with the other party) to prove you're just a victim - support will be able to help. If not, well, you still should message support, but its unlikely they'll take you at your word.
