MUT Trade Scam
Hi,
Tonight I was messaged by someone who wanted to trade. He offered me the UT Ed Reed in exchange for my 97 DRC, 97 Hall and UT Ware. He claimed he was a twitter user named [removed]. I looked it up and everything seemed legit. He had 17k followers and even tweeted me. In the end he only accepted the 2 trades on the bronze coaches and I lost DRC and Deangelo Hall. I think the fact that this happens so often is proof that EA NEEDS TO PUT IN A SYSTEM WHERE YOU CAN TRADE 2 OR 3 FOR 1!! It's not right for people to get scammed all the time. This situation lost me 2 of my best cards and it almost makes me want to stop playing Madden. I assume there is some way I can be refunded those cards or else I'm done with MUT

- Unfortunately there is nothing that EA will likely do. You arranged a trade with multiple parts which is not built into the game. The only way he would have gotten your cards is if you accepted a trade in game. The cards are gone. If you want to do multiple card trades in the future you are better off using a middleman that both sides trust and agree on. If the other guy refuses to use a middleman, he's probably trying to scam you. Middlemen can be found in many places but the official EA forums found here http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/categories/show/221.page have a system of indexed reputation threads that help you to establish whether a trader or a middleman is legit.
Also you should remove the Twitter handle, the rules here stipulate that callouts/name and shame are against the rules here.
