Then close this thread as it will be closed anyways and go pursue what ever means you need to do, to get your money back. We didn't take it, why are you here asking us? This is against the rules here. Go now and be free.

facepalm
and if somebody makes a website for selling drugs, does it automatically makes it legal too?

Yeah I feel your pain man, I didn't know robbing banks was illegal too after seeing people do it in payday2 I just assumed it was legal but luckily the cops totally understood the misunderstanding and explained to me it was illegal then they let me off with a warning but i lost my loot bags to this so I mailed the bank about it hopefully they'll send em back.

It's possible to create a website for more or less anything, and depending on where it's located, it might not even be taken down. Over here there is a growing problem with websites selling narcotics. Clearly illegal, but those sites still operate more or less in the open, because there is nothing that can be done about it.
Also, just because something is against the ToS does not make it illegal. It's fully possible that this is not illegal, but it's also not illegal for valve to close down an account that breaks the ToS over something like this.

Why would someone buy a Steam account? Why not just make a new one. They are free to make.

i bought this account because it was member since the day steam gets public. no games in it.
or maybe to tell people "i'm an old member. you can trust me.".
let the scam spree begin! o/

He wanted a low id steam account. People usually wants that so they can disguise themself as a reliable and trustable user. Because a lot of people are so dumb to consider a veteran as a trustable partner only because of the age of the account

nope i customized the account id which already mine. i bought it because its 11+ years old and 4 digit.
Comment has been collapsed.
and...what if it's 11+ years? and what does it means '4 digit' ?
Comment has been collapsed.
By 11+ years old; he means that it's more than 11 years old.
I think what he means by "4 digit", is it has over 4 digits of games. Like 1000+
Then again, I am not sure because no person in their right mind would buy sell an account with 1000+ games for $60; then again he got scammed.

speculation..speculation...but what to base our assumption on ....when the foundations are based on stupidity?

I am sorry that I did not know. Though it is best to keep opinions in a objective perspective rather than a hostile perspective.

I think by 4 digit he means that nowadays accounts are like http://steamcommunity.com/id/000000000000000/ , while that old one was http://steamcommunity.com/id/0000 .

people who buy steam accounts? they absolutly do deserve to get ripped off!
Comment has been collapsed.
He bought a Steam account for $60, just because it's old and has a four digit id. Nothing else. No game. Nothing.
He definitely deserved to be ripped off.

You lost 60 notes for a four digit steam id, lesson learned i hope.

I won't say anything against buying steam accounts because it seems others have done that already. Instead I will try to make this a useful post...
You may have bought a hacked/hijacked account which the original owner has every right to try and get back. Anyway, like Sighery said above, you should have changed the email and password right away, because there's always scammers that will try their luck. If you get your money back and try looking for another account to buy, ask the person to hold the transaction for a few days to make sure it is their account to sell.

Or, if he get's his money back, don't buy another steam account because it's against valve rulles?
Comment has been collapsed.
those sites are usually feeded by scammers and phishers so I have zero respect to anybody who support these scumbags

+1 + 2 AND + 3. Just more helping the internet prey on the weak. DO NOT BUY STEAM ACCOUNTS, makes you almost as bad as the person selling "their" account.

Caveat Emptor. Just since the OP is stupid enough to buy someone's id.
