don't worry, they need the CC to get anywhere, I would try to trade or sell it asap tho, if you used payal I might chargeback since they kinda tricked you..

The original owner cannot really do anything, except harass you.

Hey, if you have the original codes from the booklet and you know that person hasn't deleted the character before, then you could just delete the main character, create a character on another character with the same name under a different content ID, then call SE and ask them to reinstate your character. Then you would be able to totally avoid any in-game harassment.

That is, if your lucky, but in all honesty, I would try to fuck over the seller and get my money back, and give the person (original owner) the current info.

yeah just do a chargeback if its through paypal. 9/10 you will get your money back and they will get fucked.

Not that I agree how paypal works but its the sad truth.
