is it good to buy search engine traffic for my local business?

[MarkGarcia]

Hello,

I have a local business website & want to increase sale for my business. Some SEO seller tells me to buy his search engine traffic for my local business site, is it right to purchase traffic from an SEO seller?

Search engine traffic comes from a search engine, like Google. Google doesn't give you any options to sell your search engine traffic to someone else, so this immediately makes me think it's bad practice.
