In Janary 2012, my daughter used my credit card through my PayPal account to purchase a Runescape acount from Farmer100.com. No account was delivered.
I then Googled Farmer100.com and found out that they are a scam site.
What they do is accept payments through PayPal and deliver nothing. When the customers put in a PayPal dispute, Farmer100.com then emails the customer and says they'll deliver the account as soon as the dispute is withdrawn.
So then the customers withdraw the dispute and they still receive nothing. And with PayPal, once a dispute is closed it cannot be reopened, no matter what.
And Farmer100.com seem to know this all too well and use PayPal disputes to scam people.
When I read all these customer complaints I got straight onto PayPal and put in a dispute so that the payment wouldn't go through.
Sure enough I received 8 emails over the next few days from Farmer100.com asking me to cancel the dispute so that they could deliver the product.
Each time I emailed back and said no.
Below is a copy of the content of the first email:
Dear Rachel [surname removed],
Thank you for your order of an Runescape account F-L121-A85-S85-D99-11995 on www.farmer100.comWe are so sorry that we did not deliver the account to you in time due to our auto delivery system was updating.Before we deliver the original account to you, you have to cancel your payment dispute. Because dispute payment means nothing to us, we have to get your payment before we deliver the account to you.If you just want to cancel your order and need a full refund, please cancel your dispute first, and then there is a refund button option for us to refund your payment immediately, otherwise, paypal will take few weeks to investigate your transaction and then decide if they will chargeback the payment for you. For your goodness, we hope you can cancel the dispute on your paypal account first.
The emails came from two different email addresses. One address was service@farmer100.com and the other was momer@live.cn.
Below is a copy of another email I received from them:
Dear Rachel[surname removed],
Thank you for using farmer100.com.
You have made an order on our site RSA2012-01-26-2578 for 11995.
We are so sorry that we have not deliver the rs account to you in time.
Becuase we are on Chinese Duanwu festival. We were offline for 2 days.
Now we are on duty and we can deliver the account username and password by email.
But your paypal payment to us is not available at present. So we can not receive your payment for your item.
Please login your paypal account and send the payment to us.
When you cancel your payment dispute, we will deliver the item to you within 10mins!
You can contacut by livechat or by email.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely yours,

(the emails are addressed in my daughter's name)
I telephoned PayPal after a few days and said the company was hounding me and asked how long I had to wait. They said that they had emailed Farmer100.com to tell them there was a dispute but they hadn't responded. If they didn't respond within 10 days I could have my money refunded. The refund came through.
Yet still emails kept arriving from Farmer100.com asking me to stop the dispute so that they could deliver the product.
The problem is that Farmer100.com is owned by someone called Wang who lives in China. So they cannot be found (although their address and phone number is available through a WHOIS lookup).
What is obvious to me is that Wang is nothing but a con man and he uses the PayPal dispute system to con people. He knows that most of his customers will be kids who don't realize what a scam site Farmer100.com is until it's too late.
PayPal is a trusted website and the owner of Farmer100.com uses this trust that PayPal have built up to scam people out of money. Without PayPal helping him, he wouldn't get away with it.
But just to help you find out how bad Farmer100.com is, you can read hundreds of complaints about them at the following URLs (and these are just a small sample of what's out there):

There is also an emerging class action lawsuit against this website which you can read at http://www.sueeasy.com/class_action_detail.php?case_id=445.
I think that if this guy has his PayPal account closed, he won't be able to scam people the way he is doing at the moment - and he's been doing it for a long time.
People trust Paypal and feel safe making payments through the website. But Wang, Farmer100.com is abusing this trust and tricking people.
He has nothing to sell and is using the trust people have in PayPal to steal money. He needs to be stopped. He is simply using PayPal to commit fraud.

If only I could give it below one star.
Not only did they rip my little brother off, the "representative" that I spoke with, needs a f*****g English book, and bi-lingual classes. Nothing but a bunch of tribal mud campers ripping off children for their money.
I have a claim in with Paypal, and I will take it to the fullest extent. And that's only the beginning.
Word of the wise. If you want to keep your money, and DON'T want illiterate tribal monkeys to put their dank ass fingers all over it, DO NOT buy from farmer100.

Wow,I am upset I must say. Here's the scoop.
I purchased a runescape account from them about 2 weeks ago for $169.00 I got the account 2 days later because they got my email information wrong. Eventually I was able to login and I was happy. Problem came in is when I realized the email was still registered,this is a bad sign because the player could than recover his account.
I tried contacting them through email but they didn't reply,and their chat is rarely ever online. 4 days later their chat is infact up they say they will contact the user "REQUESTING" he confirms the email change. REQUESTING ASKING ARE THE WORDS THEY USED NO BUENO. Day five day six day 7 8 and 9 I checked to see if the chat was online everyday in the afternoon and really early in the morning like 2 am and they're not online.
Since I could not get the registration changed to me of course I didn't play with the account.
Day 15 I try to sign into the account and what happened? The unpredictable the user did infact steal the account back and what do you know the emails no longer work the phone numbers are fake and the chat room is still offline.
Would give 2 stars just because the prices are so good,but who cares when you will just end up losing the account?why does the price matter when you're not buying anything?
DO NOT PURCHASE FROM HERE FIND SOMEONE ELSE WHO AT LEAST HAS
A WORKING CHATLINE.

Total scam. Same comment as others, paid the money, no response, Chat is ALWAYS offline, all emails ignored, lodged dispute with Paypal, then finally contacted by Farmer who said I have to remove the dispute first, which I did, and that was the last contact I've had from them. That was in May 2012, just got another email from them saying account ready to transfer to me, as soon as I pay them money!! Can't believe they're trying to get me again!! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!!!

Your review will help others learn about this website.
Please do not review if you are affiliated or have a conflict of interest with this website.well my first order took a few days and i got it from a guy by the name of momer. He provided the username, password, and the bank pin. the site isn't up kept well, but they do deliver. (slowly but surely) They provided me with everything I needed. I am still using this account to date. (I'm actually using it right now heh) There are a lot of bad reviews out there mainly because they don't check the site and/or email very often. (weekly, every 2 weeks, every other week, etc.) DON'T file a complaint on PAYPAL against them too quickly though or you will never get it. Wait till the middle of next week and you might get it. maybe 2 weeks max? I'm not in any rush. it would be better to train a guy right now, stock up the bank, get good armor and wepons and such, then sell it for some profit! (Go to a different site to sell. I wouldn't sell on there. People say its a scam, but they just need patience. I know someone who has bought $1000+ of stuff from there. He says it is very slow delivery but it i cheap and good quality stuff. well I hope this helped everybody a little bit. I will report back when I get the account!

i attempted to buy something using paypal for £66, after calling their 'number' and emailing them several times i started to think it was a fraud. luckily they haven't claimed my transfer and i should get my money back. today i called them again and some poor man picked up the phone saying that his number had been put on their website and that he had nothing to do with them. Basically the website should be shut down and the owners should be prosecuted.

Well I was planning to sell my level 125 account, to make a little spare cash. I put in the details and it was hacked within 15 minutes. about 100 million gp worth of items down the drain. This whole website is set up to get you guys to fall for the tricks. DO NOT PURCHASE OR DO ANYTHING TO SUPPORT farmers100.com. It is all a scam!!

bought an account for 65 dollars, its was nice 97 str 80 def and 80 attack, bad thing is i waited 13 hours and never got finally i got fed up and filed a dispute with them over paypal, wow to come to think of it they emailed me right away asking me to drop dispute and then they'd give me account. waited another 12 hours and they never gave me account after i dropped dispute. don't bother trying live chat cause when it says they're online you'll wait 30-40 min then it will say they went offline. if you going to do anything buy from Rsorder.com i got a 40 range pure with 75 woodcutting for 9.99. pretty good deal if you ask me.

Tried to purchase an account. They said it would take less than 10 minutes to send to me, but it took over 8 hours and still nothing. I filed a complaint with PayPal, and later that day, they sent me an email saying I needed to cancel my dispute in order for me to receive my account. I cancelled my dispute, and I am still yet to receive my account. Terrible website.

My 11 year old son used his birthday money to buy a virtual online player from this website. The player was never delivered and I have numerous emails from the owner promising our money back. No player and no money. Now the owner has just stopped answering my emails. We are out $99.00. The website is farmer 100.
