Not sure about the selling of advice piece.

I looked up the eBay listing and there is an image of an MVP Gold card with a name and MP number on it. If the cardholder produced the listing, he can probably expect to have his account suspended or worse. But then again, there is the part about the nomination and Golds can't nominate so it is a bit confusing.

No worries, that's the image of the card from the elite benefits page on the website. I think Charles is safe.
