Before I start, just want to be clear I understand the fault is mine.

I bought a starter account on eBay, and after playing hard for 10 days questing and Skilling, the seller recovered the account with original email.

I understand I won't get the acct back. Just don't want that scammer profiting off my blood and sweat, or scamming others with the acct.

Is there a way to report something like this to jagex and get acct banned permanently?


Only thing you can do is report it to Ebay with proof. Unfortunately Jagex won't do anything because account buying/selling is illegal and against the rules.
Honestly just start a fresh account and do it yourself, the early levels are easy, especially if you quest for them! Iirc my current main..I got to 1500 total within a month maybe

You can keep sending recovery appeals for the account with all the information you have about it, it might become locked and at least youve then managed to annoy the guy

I will go do that, really want to ban the account because he is using my blood and sweat to profit.

I actually called ebay and they are looking into it. I basically told them look at what the guy is selling, all accounts which are against the rules. Hopefully he gets some red marks or a ban on ebay and lose all those 5star feedbacks, which I suspect was fake all along. And yea, I already started a new account under my name and started grinding those stats. Its just difficult to have a life and play 1 extra os rs account sigh

2. Says he bought an Account

Question answered by itself ..

Yea haha I will do one everytime i get the email that "your appeal has been rejected' That should be like once every 2 days or something.

How do you actually check if an account gets banned, so I know when to stop. Is there a way to do that without logging into the account?

Umm I dont believe so. You might be able to try and login and get told "account disabled" but I'm not 100% on it

Justice was served, I called eBay, PayPal, and opened multiple acct recovery requests the last couple days.

The account he recovered suddenly disappears off the highscore list. I checked that he didn't change his screen name because I had him friended on my main (to track him). I also could not create a new account with his name. I think the account got banned!

All his eBay listings are gone as well, though eBay won't tell me the details. I am happy to know the guy can't scam anyone else.

Funny thing, he actually had a listing 1 days ago with the account he stole back, listing all the new stats, quests items ECT that I grinded... I obviously reported that shit immediately and now that listing is "ended because it is no longer avail" feels good man!
