Thanks!
Buying mileage tickets using someone else's points for Cash is against T&C of every airline that I know of. Not sure what recourse you may have against the broker, but the worst that can happen to the buyer is being denied boarding by the Airline and having to cough up a full fare for the ticket.

The seller of the miles in all likelihood will also be investigated by the airline and his/her mileage account will be suspended.
