Isn't selling an account on BCT un-ethical? I know its allowed by BCT, but just think of the repercussions?
If i were a scammer, i would go ahead and purchase one of the trusted senior member accounts and then go around spreading news about a new coin i developed. Since the member is a Senior / Hero member, most people would believe what is being said and may invest. The scammer can take all funds and run! I cant see one good use of buying a Sr. Member / Hero Member account from the buyer. I am sure most of the time they are bought with malicious intent. Maybe BCT should not allow people to sell their accounts this way!
Maybe i just need to stop trusting whatever i hear from Sr. / hero members in future or just take it with a pinch of salt!
Account trade is allowed because there is no way to stop it to happen behind the scenes, so there is no false sensation that everything is fine and sock puppets do no exist.
I think most of the times the accounts are bought for signature programs, scammers just create their own accounts or use newbie accounts to scam, because seniors and hero accounts aren't cheap and they risk being themselves scammed if they buy.
Also don't trust hero and seniors only because they are hero and senior is a good thing that everyone should make.
