Someone on eBay is offering to play on your account to get your rating up. Administrators beware. You can find the offer under the category of "Chess books." Pretty revolting morally.

Are you announcing this, or did you report it to staff?

I don't know how to otherwise report it to staff, I am certainly very much against this practice.

Nakamura recently tweeting that he helped someone win blitz games on Chess.com. Coincidence? ;)

You can report it to staff here: https://support.chess.com/customer/portal/emails/new

Make sure you provide them with a link.

So someone will play on my account to get my rating up? Hey, that sounds great - except that I will have to stop playing in order to keep my rating up there.
