but mod can still pick these accounts very easily as they have one few days back

Maybe the mod should start selling high activity accounts for BTC. They can use it for something useful...

It think such advertisements only attract people who are going to scam people here. Who else wants to buy and old account with a few posts? If it had many posts, the owner could earn some $ with it by advertising third parties in their signature. But that's not the case now.

Unfortunately the account's owners where so smart to not tell their accountnames. Bitcointalk should otherwise ban their accounts in my opinion.
Incorrect. The person who buys them and uses them for the wrong reasons should be banned.

Doing that you are fighting against symptoms of the problem instead of causes. By banning the buyers, the sellers still have made their profit and that would make this business attractive. But, I think it's easier to ban the buyers indeed, as the moderators probably can see an huge change in IP address.

Hm... I would love to buy some accounts if its free... cause of the 360 sec per post

Just wait 2 weeks your account will become a member status you only need to wait 75 seconds I guess.
Yeah, and it's there for a reason.

You can never stop people from using a proxy, but atleast they don't have the account they wanted to sell. You can't just allow it if people are using it for scams right?
People can always register new ones and use those.

The only reason to buy this is for a scam.  Angry

Yeah pretty much. I think theymos should prevent this from happening. For example an account (+IP) ban for the seller and the buyer.
That's ridiculous.
I'd use a proxy or VPN.
