  The reason I avoid "Buy In Coins" like the plague, is when you pay with Paypal wihout having a bic account, they create an account automatically for you, then steal your Paypal email address and sell it to other companies. Last time I had EA games junkmail within minutes, with enough junkmail after a month I had to set new Ebay and Paypal emails to get rid of them as BIC dont actually let you unsubscribe (tried for months the 1st time).
  This company is crooked this way, so good to let people know what you've been through.
  I'd rather pay a few dollars more elsewhere, than support these crooks.

    I've been buying from BIC since May last year, and not had any such problems. Used them about ten times. They auto generated an account for me, from my Paypal email address, too.

    I did have a similar problem a few years ago, from a different company. I reported it to that company, and it turned out to be their website hosting company "harvesting" emails as they went out. Emails are (stupidly) still unencrypted, anyone can read them if the email passes through their computer.

    I had to set new Ebay and Paypal emails…

    Are you sure it wasn't eBay vendors? Because I get a ton of spam to the email addresses I use for Paypal and eBay, and most of it seems to be from eBay vendors trying to generate traffic to their own websites.
