Last August, 'A' sold his online game account, valued at approximately 290 million KRW ($215,000), for 205 million KRW ($152,000). In March of this year, he logged back into the account and changed the password.
The prosecution indicted A under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, viewing his actions—selling the account and then reclaiming it—as gaining over 500 million KRW ($370,000) in illegal financial benefits.
Imagine getting hit with Aggravated Punishment charges over a game account...
"Netizens are roasting the seller's 'room-temperature IQ' for trying to scam someone rich enough to drop $200k on a game account, with most assuming the game is the notorious 'whale' paradise, Lineage."
