-
Client A sought to purchase a high-value character account in an online game, making contact with the seller and an associated party. The seller promised to transfer a full "Lineage" game account, including the character and all equipped items. Trusting this, Client A wired 100 million KRW (approximately USD 75,000) to the seller's account.
Nothing was delivered — no account, no items, no refund. The seller refused to return the money, claiming it had all been spent purchasing in-game items.
디센트 전략
Decent Law Firm directly challenged the seller's claims on the burden of proof and built the unjust enrichment case step by step.
• Established the legal grounds for the transfer agreement never having been validly formed — no written contract, no notarization, no agreed purchase price
• Exposed the vagueness of the seller's bank records and the complete absence of supporting evidence
• Argued that return of the original items was impossible, locking in the obligation to return the cash
• Maintained a consistent legal theory from the first trial through to the Supreme Court
Many clients worry that without hard evidence, litigation is hopeless. In this case, the seller's failure to substantiate their own claims became the central argument that turned the tide.
