Can I sell origin accounts with games on eBay?
<p>I wanted to ask if I can sell Origin accounts on eBay... is it illegal if I sell them? I have 1 account that I don’t use and it has the sims 4 with almost all the packs and I was thinking to sell it because I don’t use it anymore.. also i heard that lot of people can play in one account (account sharing) so if I sell the account for cheap to 5-6 people will it be illegal? If someone report me will I have problems with law?? The account will be shared to 5-6 people.. I decided to sell it cheap but because I want to make some money of the account’s worth I thought that it may be good to sell it to more people.. </p>

<p>That will depend on the language of the agreement which establishes the account. This will be a contract between the customer and Origin. If it prohibits transferring an account or sharing an account between multiple people, such provisions would be valid. It wouldn't be a criminal offense, but it might well be a breach of contract allowing Origin to cancel the account and/or sue the seller and collect damages.</p>
