@football IG account?

So some random person messaged me on Kik out of the blue and showed me a list of IG accounts for sale.

Apparently one is for the handle @football

I replied back with interest for it (who wouldn’t, with the goal to one day flip it off to Nike or a company like that)

I know it’s probably a scam but if not how much do you think a handle like this is worth?

Send the Instagram account a private message and get them to confirm their ownership of it.

The googlewallet payment is suspicious, as the usual is Paypal or Bitcoin. I would try to find out if he has a sale’s thread somewhere, so there’s somewhere to track them if it goes wrong.

If something looks too good to be true, it usually is :slight_smile:

Btw, how the Google Wallet thing is functioning? I never used it. Do they have similar policy and buyer/seller protection as Paypal?

Let him verify the account. Ask him to post something in his BIO, like a special code.
