Hi, got a friend who is geographically nearby. He wants to buy silk but have no credit card and bank account. I have paypal & bought silk before, so how could I help him? Some suggestions include meeting up and exchange money in person, then go to his house and buy it on his computer; other say to get his sro login info, I go and buy silk for his acc, and then he go change the password after. Both ways doesn't sound so good. First I don't want to meet in person and go to his house; and 2nd option, it sounds like such a scam to get his sro acc login. Also, if he get hacked in the future, he might blame me.

Any suggestions would help. Thanks.

Either way you'd need his account details, or he'd need into your PP account. Better off getting a MC/Visa pre-paid card I've been hearing about.

He has a bank acc; just his parents won't let him use it for paypal; they don't trust it! To simplify things, I just say it doesn't have one. Thanks.

Leave the situation alone.

If you want to risk it, then risk it, but you will most likely suffer repercussions later. If you two are good enough friends I doubt you would be asking for advice on here and have done it already.

Thanks for the comment. That's the thing; I only know them through SRO; but turning them down sounds kinda mean without exploring the options; just thought I ask the people here what other ways to do this. I'm sure many slightly older folks have been asked to buy silk for younger players before.
