FIFA 15 Ultimate Team Drops Coin Trade Offers

Just a few weeks after warning FIFA 15 players that coin selling and buying could earn a ban from the association football/soccer game, EA announces they are dropping coin trading from the game altogether to end the game coin black market (thanks CVG). Here's word on why we can't have nice things:

We’ll be removing Trade Offers from FIFA 15 Ultimate Team.

Although some honest players used this feature to trade with friends, it became one of the methods used by coin sellers to sell and move coins. Account phishers also abused Trade Offers by moving stolen players and coins after wrongfully gaining access to unsuspecting FUT player accounts.

This will also address “bid bumping”, where people would try and trick others into bidding far more than they wanted for a player item.

It was a tough decision, but this is the right step towards improving security, showing cheaters the red card, and keeping FUT safe for all FIFA fans.
