Hello, I would like to warn everyone that the site www.secondlifeize.com is a Chinese fraud, spoof and scam site intended to extract money in exchange for Linden dollars without delivering anything. I made a small purchase there of Linden dollars and never saw my money again. Now that I have a paypal account this will not happen again and the best and secure way is to exchange money for Linden dollars from the Second Life site itself. People, stay away from www.secondlifeize.com. If you buy there you will lose your money !!! You have been warned !!! Monty |

Um, with content, like I'm pasting below, it's pretty obvious you are quite right and it's a scam. They talk about powering up to the next level and sending you gold, so it looks like they just replaced WoW wording from another scam with the words Second Life and Linden Dollars. Thanks for the heads up. You should contact Linden Lab directly as well.
"Farming for Second Life Linden dollars isn't easy, but you can buy cheap SL Linden, guides, accounts & items on sale. We have revolutionized the exchange of money to Second Life L$ with fast instant delivery. Purchase Second Life money online & power up your character ot the next level...Shop now and play as a VIP! Delivery will be made within 10 minutes to 24 hours after payment is confirmed! Most of the times the gold is sent really fast, but in case it takes longer than 24 hours we will send 5% more Linden Dollars as a compensation. "

I understand your policy. Thank you for your comments. I will probably live without the small amount that I lost there, but I wanted others to learn from my mistakes and provide a service to the SL public.
