Don't Buy Accounts

Just wanted to say I went away from league for about a year or two, came back when some of my friends and girlfriend started playing it to see my account was taken from me with the name changed and everything. After about only 3 days of customer service (Amazing job on that one Riot was expecting at least a week or two) I got my account reinstated. I come back to see the person bought a bunch of goodies that now belong to me =D. Only downside? I might be stuck with this name.

If you bought your account take this as a warning, an old player could return at any time.

EDIT: You can buy name changes with IP now YYAYYYYY

Wait, did you buy an account and then have it taken back or did somebody somehow take control of your inactive account? I don't quite understand what you are trying to say.

If I were that guy, I would have my bank take the money back from Riot. I wouldn't expect to keep the skins too long.

OP, My biggest concern is how your account was acquired by another person in the first place. If someone else managed to get your info that's one thing, And I sincerely hope you didn't sell it yourself.

How exactly did someone end up purchasing your account?

Had the exact same experience. I guess alot of accounts were stolen at some point and sold.
