Does CCP support a secure Character Transfer? And if so, what Rules apply to a secure Character Transfer?

The following Rules apply to secure transfer of characters from one account to another. Please, read the rules carefully, to ensure a successful character transfer.

1. The 'For Sale/Auction' post must be made by the character being offered. This is being added to prevent scams for characters that have been misrepresented, banned, non-existent, etc.

2. You must disclose whether or not the character being sold has a negative balance in its wallet and the amount.

3. The character being sold must receive the ISK for the purchase.

4. The sell post must reflect the character correctly, posting that the character you're selling has more skillpoints or ISK than it actually has is a bannable offence.

5. The character being sold must be stripped of ingame assets of any significant value before being transferred. Items cannot be listed among the character's valuable assets, only skills, implants and reputation. You are buying/selling the character ONLY and nothing else. Ships and items can be readily bought on the market for ISK.

6. You may only bump threads ONCE Per day. Date is determined by the date on the forum, not the date where you live.

7. The new owner of the character may NOT pass himself off as the original owner.

8. The character for sale must be from an active account, you cannot trade characters from inactive accounts.

9. The character being sold must be in an NPC corporation.

10. The character being sold must be older than 14 days old to avoid accidental transfers.

11. The selling of accounts is prohibited, characters may only be sold individually.

12, The owner of the character being sold is responsible for the character transfer fee paid to CCP.

13. Prior to leaving a corporation, the character to be sold MUST send a corp-wide EVE mail stating that they are going to be sold and will be leaving for an NPC corporation.

14. When a character is sold, please modify the topic title to reflect this to help other forum patrons know what characters are still available.

15. Lottery style sales are not permitted. Auctions and buyouts are the appropriate method for selling a character.

16. All scams involving character transfers are prohibited.

If you suspect any scams, or have reason to believe that your business partner doesn't intend to keep his end of a character transfer agreement, please file a petition under Billing & Accounts > Character Transfers
