I realize it violates the Terms of Service to sell or trade a user account for certain websites. I'm referring to a popular $5 freelance marketplace in particular. However, let's just suppose someone had built their account up to bringing in over $2,000/mo offering various creative services and passive items. Let's say that same person was about to take a new job that didn't allow them to continue doing so. In this very specific instance, I understand it's still a grey area, but is it possible? Can it be done? Or will this incredibly valuable account/business simply disappear like it never happened?

Logistically, I know I could get past the paypal account switchover no problem. But what about finding a buyer without being exposed? Mind you, this is all purely hypothetical...

    You should be asking the hypothetical marketplace.

    Sure it is. That's why your question is so detailed and specific.

    Here's your hypothetical answer . . .

    Ask the very same questions of Fiverr support . . . I'm sure they'll have an answer for you.

    I'm no lawyer, but it seems to me that an account that is the asset of a company would be pretty easy to transfer as an asset of the company, if the company itself were sold.

    Try saying that fast three times...

    In other words, if this hypothetical account is not the property of a real company, it may be advantageous to make it one prior to seeking a buyer.

    Of course, I could be way off. If this account is making that kind of money, a few hundred to an attorney that specializes in such things would be well spent.
