New idea for trading...

I've been browsing around and seeing all these scam reports and talk of middlemen and I had an idea...

Why not make an autotrader? Like an automated system that acts as a middleman in deals. Here's what I was thinking:

Someone will request a transaction ID unique to their trade (automatically generated with the code being their username and a random password for the transaction). It will ask for the type of account(s) that will be traded. They will log into the secure server and give the information to the person they are trading with. Once 2 IP's are detected, the server will lock down any access to avoid interceptors. I can code this easily, but here's the next part.

So now both parties are in their 'vault', there will be a confirmation button on each others' screen to begin the trade. Then the server will ask for the account credentials and check to see if there are alternate emails, backups, 2step, sign out of any profiles or consoles etc. If there is, it will spit out the account back to the owner to go over it again.

Don't ask how I'm gonna do the checking section. I have no idea haha.

Once both accounts have been analysed and confirmed to be secure, another confirmation button will show asking if they're ready to receive account information. Once both have confirmed, the new information will be displayed to them and they can do as they wish with their new accounts.

They have 10 minutes from the account credentials being revealed to secure them and/or ask any questions to the buyer through the integrated chat before being kicked out from the server.

Also, I think it'd be cool for the logs of the procedures and chat logs to be exported to each person at the end, for future reference or if something goes wrong, they can provide evidence.

I was planning on having multiple servers for this and I think it'd be great to reduce the amount of scams and corruption in online marketplaces.

Of course this is a huge project and so I have a few friends that would loev to help out.

Any questions, opinions, suggestions or ideas for it would be much appreciated.

You would need it to be able to login to all kinds of accounts, and it would need to be able to verify that it's legit, and it would need to be able to check currencies, and login to paypals, LRs, Payza's, and more. That's quite a bit of coding right there, the idea is solid but not realistic.

I can attempt to do a MM program for like GT's but it would need to be in Python, as that's what i'm best in and not many people here would know how to use it, and if they know python they can easily exploit the script.

This would be an amazing method of trading, but sadly this would involve so much time to code its crazy. To begin with a program that checks if there are alts, and any other type of info could (not 100% sure of this) be used to phish information from the account for someone trying to steal an account. Other than that, the trading system would be amazing!

Very high tech. type suggestion you thought up. That was cue for a moderator to move this.

This will fix a lot like the need for a middleman. Almost every time I have to look for one it's a drawn out process and not many trusted are available. There is more that I can't think of right now, but you get the idea.

Python was gonna be my main language. Java for the login, server and chat function, along with the export of logs.

For checking, I was just planning on the sort of applications that show you a mini window and just analyses entry fields.

Of course it would start out with the most common accounts i.e Xbox, YouTube and aim. Then I'd move onto more bespoke accounts such as RS.

I understand this is a lot of work and there are a lot of adjustments to be made, which is why I asked for suggestions c:

I appreciate everyones approval of the idea though.

The whole concept of it is really nice, I must say, great thread.
But, this would take a genius to program something for this, and it'd take a long time to create. And there probably would be a few exploits here & there, etc.

Oh, a little off-topic, but when I finish learning PHP & MySQL later today, I'm probably gonna start on Ruby. :3

I know it's a huge project, but I have a few friends willing to help out :3 Exploits were my main concern. Fortunately I go after web exploits myself so i know how to attack and defend. Hell, I could perform the mBB 0day on this site if I wanted haha,

I'd advise Java after SQL & PHP personally, but it depends what you're wanting to code/program.

Thanks for the nice words

I'm pretty sure gmail blocks connections from those sources, you would have to make it run through chrome which would be another task as well haha.

Well that's annoying. There will be a way around it but I just have to experiment I guess.

Thanks for the heads up though.
