United Global Upgrade
This ad was found on Craigslist. Is it a scam? Pay an upgrade consulting fee for something that is supposedly free? He wants your name and itinerary information?
I have one United Airlines Global Premier Upgrade available for upgrading any (including international) flights to Business or First class.
Upgrade is free, my consulting advice is $450. Payment can be made via Paypal and upgrades will be applied once payment is made.
Please send me the passenger name, six digits itinerary confirmation #, and flight number. I will check if your ticket is upgradable and can apply upgrade online for you.

Probably a scam. It might be possible to use status or miles to upgrade a friend you're flying with, or even possibly upgrade someone you're not flying with but even if it's possible it's probably still a scam.

It might be a scam but I am thinking not. In days past a UA 1k did occasionally sell their SWUs for $$ and $450 seems about right esp since the cost to upgrade has gone up. To use a SWU you had to have the persons name and internary info.
I was a 1k for about 5 yrs...I did a lot of d/h.
