The selling of stolen accounts?

[theboner]

Is the selling of stolen accounts I.e steam and xbox accounts allowed here?
Please fill me in as I know this is not that type of forum that revolves around hacking.

Since hacking was used to steal the accounts (I would assume so...) and since it's a stolen digital good, it probably won't be allowed.

[theboner]

Yep I thought the same thing. This is a support forum not a hacking one.

Perhaps it falls under this:

7. No illegal posts involving fraud, hacking tutorials or other harmful illegal activity. This includes linking to sites with such content.

If things are not stated fully people tend to not follow the obvious. They think its a grey area that is allowed, So further clarifaction of the rules might need to happen

Probably not allowed.

[Elektrisk]

I doubt it's allowed.

The selling of stolen accounts is definitely not allowed. Anyone found doing so will be issued with a warning and possibly banned if they continue to do so.

[Omniscient]

Not allowed. There are no "grey" areas of SF.
