and Now your account is worthless as people will now it has been sold. Sold accounts are usually used for schills or scamming via trades or loans.
Not sure that's true. Some months ago...maybe a year ago...members of this forum used to go around trying to neg trust account sellers and sold accounts. I don't really see that anymore. I don't think anyone cares at this point.
I think people should care, sure escrow is used more than it was previously but plenty of people will to buy these for shil and loan accounts. I just don't see it as a positive thing in any case (especially at the member level, not much to be made from sig on it)
I see where you're coming from. The borrowing threads are a lawless place, but the community there is typically pretty engaged in identifying potential scam threats.
At the same time, I can't be entirely sure what the account would be used for after it's sold, so while it could be used as a shill account, a signature account could be just as likely--even if there's "not much to be made from sig on it".
And then some might want it just for the goofy avatar.
