>without a clear explanation as to what they will be using it for?

No one lies on the internet? Those Nigerian princes are very clear what they are going to do with the money you send them, but it doesn't make it true. Providing 3rd party access to an account should come with over sight abilities.



Asking "What if this other thing that didn't happen, but could happen, happened?" and then using that to excuse reckless behavior.

I'm going by what the guy wrote. He "clicked through a bunch of pages". If you "click through a bunch of pages" and get scammed, you suffer consequences. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

The whole story is suss, tho.
