These rules apply to every game account listed or sold on AccountShark.

Account sellers must accurately describe what they are selling, provide the access promised in the listing, and hand the account over in a condition that allows the buyer to take control.

Breaking these rules can result in canceled orders, seller penalties, listing restrictions, or suspension.

Also read Seller rules for the rules that apply to every seller and provider on AccountShark.

Your listing should clearly explain what the buyer is getting.

Include the important features that affect the account's value, such as:

Keep the description specific to the account. Do not exaggerate its value or claim features it does not have.

List the account under the correct game, region, platform, rank, and other applicable filters.

Do not use unrelated keywords, categories, or account features to appear in searches where the account does not belong.

If the listing says an account has a particular rank, skin, platform connection, achievement, or other feature, it must actually have it.

Do not repeatedly list the same account to gain additional marketplace visibility.

Each account should have one active listing unless AccountShark provides a specific inventory feature that allows multiple accounts to be managed together.

Anything that could materially affect the buyer's use of the account should be disclosed before purchase.

Examples include:

If you know about a limitation, put it in the listing rather than waiting for the buyer to discover it.

Screenshots and other listing evidence must represent the account you are actually selling.

Do not use another seller's screenshots, alter evidence to make the account appear more valuable, or show features that are not present on the account.

You may only list an account that you legitimately control and have the ability to deliver.

Stolen, hacked, fraudulently obtained, or otherwise unauthorized accounts are prohibited.

If you are reselling an account you previously acquired, you are still responsible for the account you sell and the access you promise to the buyer.

The buyer must receive the login information and account access described in your listing.

Depending on the account, that can include:

If you advertise full email access, you must provide the email login.

If the listing instead requires changing the account to the buyer's email, you must assist with any confirmation or verification required from the currently linked email.

Before handing the account over, remove personal information and security controls that should not remain attached to you.

Where applicable, remove:

Do not leave the buyer dependent on you for ordinary access after the handoff.

If you select automatic delivery, the credentials stored with the listing must be current and usable when the buyer purchases it.

Do not use automatic delivery when the buyer cannot access the account without waiting for you to manually provide the basic login information.

Some account transfers may still require your assistance with an email change or verification code after the initial login. Be available to complete those parts of the handoff.

Once the buyer has taken control, do not log into, play on, modify, recover, or otherwise access the account unless the buyer or AccountShark specifically asks you to assist with an active problem.

This includes any email account transferred with the sale.

AccountShark has zero tolerance for sellers intentionally recovering accounts after they have been sold.

If an account is reclaimed and the evidence connects the recovery to you, you may be responsible for the loss and can permanently lose your ability to sell on AccountShark.

Account purchases include a 12-month Account Warranty against eligible seller reclaim.

The end of that warranty does not give a seller permission to recover, interfere with, or regain control of an account.

If evidence later shows that you intentionally recovered or interfered with an account you sold, AccountShark may still investigate and take action against your seller account.

If an account order is canceled or a dispute is decided in the buyer's favor, do not immediately attempt to recover the account while the case is still being resolved.

Follow the instructions provided with the order. Once the transaction has been formally reversed and you are told the account can be recovered, you may secure your inventory again where possible.

The general rules above apply to every account. The following requirements apply in addition to them for specific games.

Fortnite listings must clearly describe the Epic Games account and its platform-linking status.

14. State supported platforms accurately. Clearly state which platforms the account can currently be used with or linked to, including PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and PC where relevant. Do not advertise a platform as linkable unless the account can actually support the connection. Epic applies restrictions when a different console account of the same platform type was previously linked. Removing that restriction is itself limited, currently to once every 365 days for the applicable platform.

15. Disclose email-change limitations. If the Epic Games email cannot currently be changed, disclose that in the listing. Where full email access is included, provide the linked email credentials. Epic's normal email-change process requires a security code sent to the current email, so access to that inbox can be necessary to complete a change.

16. Disclose important linked accounts. Review the Epic Linked Accounts page before listing and accurately describe connections that matter to the buyer. Do not casually unlink console accounts before sale. Epic warns that unlinking can affect access to Fortnite progress on that console, and platform-linking restrictions can prevent an immediate replacement.

17. List the correct region and current rank. List the Riot account in its correct game, region, and rank category. Any advertised competitive rank must reflect the account's relevant current rank rather than an old peak rank unless the listing clearly identifies it as historical.

18. Disclose offences and account history. Disclose known warnings, restrictions, suspensions, or other account history that creates additional risk for the buyer. Do not sell accounts that you know were leveled, ranked, or maintained using cheats, bots, scripts, or other prohibited automation.

19. Describe the Jagex Account correctly. State whether the character is attached to a Jagex Account and identify what is actually included with the sale. If multiple RuneScape characters are attached to the same Jagex Account, do not imply that the buyer is purchasing all of them unless they are explicitly included.

20. Provide applicable recovery information. Provide the account and email access promised in the listing along with any relevant recovery information you possess and agreed to transfer. Disclose known account offences, previous botting or macroing, bans, mutes, restrictions, or other history that could materially affect the buyer.

21. Do not add unrelated characters before delivery. Do not import or attach additional RuneScape characters to the Jagex Account after it has been listed or sold. The buyer should receive the Jagex Account in the condition represented by the listing.

22. State the platform and version. Clearly identify where the GTA V account is played, such as Rockstar Games Launcher, Epic Games, Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox, as applicable. Also state which version of GTA V the listing covers where the distinction matters.

23. Describe GTA Online progress accurately. Accurately list important GTA Online details such as rank, cash, properties, vehicles, businesses, unlocks, and characters. If the account has a known suspension, reset, restriction, or other enforcement history, disclose it. If a listing is specifically for FiveM-related access or progression, make that clear and state any underlying GTA V requirements.

24. State the game and linked platforms. Clearly identify which Call of Duty title or account ecosystem the listing covers and which platforms are currently connected. Activision accounts can be linked to platform accounts, so buyers need to know which connections are part of the handoff.

25. Clean up linked logins before delivery. Remove unnecessary linked accounts where doing so is safe and permitted. If a linked platform account remains part of the account at delivery, provide whatever access the listing promised for that connection rather than leaving the buyer dependent on a login you still control.

26. Describe the Battle.net account and WoW license. Clearly state which World of Warcraft version, region, and Battle.net/WoW license you are selling. Listings should accurately describe valuable account features such as characters and levels, realm and faction, current or historical PvP achievements, rare mounts, titles, transmog and unobtainable appearances, Feats of Strength, account-wide collections, and other features being used to justify the price. Do not advertise a character-specific achievement or item as account-wide when it is not.

27. Disclose Battle.net limitations. Disclose known restrictions, suspensions, previous offences, region limitations, or other Battle.net history that could materially affect the buyer. Remove your personal authenticator, phone number, and payment information before delivery where applicable. If the sale includes email access, provide it as promised.

Check these five things:

1. The account works. 2. The listing matches the account. 3. Every important limitation is disclosed. 4. You can provide all access you promised. 5. You are prepared to complete the handoff when it sells.

Following these rules protects your seller account and makes account orders much easier to complete.
