(PSN)dursereg Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Depends on the credit card used. Scumbag can claim to their credit card company that they never used it to buy anything from steam / digital extremes after they get their statement .I said 45 day to be truly safe.

DrivaMain Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 If you want to trade to use the plat now I would suggest taking a screenshot of the trade so DE Support can lift your suspension quickly if your account got suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syln Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Gonna wait a few weeks then, but i wish there was some ingame tool to check plat origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 the better question to ask, is how to avoid the situation in the first place. don't buy/sell too good to be true Trades. the usual common stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make that much sense when it comes to riven frankly, but sure i guess that seeing someone buying Chroma prime set for 600 plat might be an hint ! Then again that's not the case here.

Syln Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 il y a 1 minute, taiiat a dit : it's complicated yes, but you have to try and evaluate how much sense the Trade makes. Was a Rubico riven with roughly : 184 % damage, 90% electricity, -28% fire rate for 900 plat, don't think i would ever pay that much for anything in this game but then again i don't think it's that much when i see the absurd amount asked for what i judged to be lesser riven.

(PSN)Viveeeh Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 This is madness... "Bad plat" is a recurring issue here, something should be done about handling the problems it's causing. I understand scammers will always be a step ahead of developers, but it's not normal that a user playing according to the rules is afraid to trade or use the plats acquired through trading. Should DE be really that quick, banning those with negative balance? Maybe they just have to be made unable to trade until someone from DE can take a look at their activity and decide if they were breaking the rules or not. This way a few scammers may be get away with it, but innocent players don't get punished unnecessarily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psianide73 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Bad news I'm afraid... I got stung 10 months after the fact. I bought prime access from a 3rd party (before I knew it was a no-no) when I began playing in March 2018. The scumbag who sold me the pack refunded it the next day, and the plat wasn't removed from my account until January 2019, 10 months later.

Once I realised that the 2 packs I bought (yes, I was an idiot twice) weren't supposed to have been bought from a 3rd party, I stopped spending plat, and took several months off the game as i felt... Guilty I guess. I had over 7k plat when I started playing full time again in January. DE removed about 10k ish plat from my account, and the frames, weapons ect that were included in the packs. This put me at -3700 plat (roughly) and I was locked out. I bought the top Mesa Prime pack to bring my plat back up to 200 ish and was able to play again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be months later when any dirty plat is removed from your account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
