Some new E-bay scams

In some new ebay purchases I have found out about some new scrams.......The seller sells a item and provides tracking, but it is not real tracking number, it is fake.....,They are able to hack into the tracking system and provide tracking even up to "Item Delivered"and when it comes to filling a "none delivery claim" you have a real time collecting because it says "Item Delivered" on your tracking................I've had this happen two times on e-bay in the last three months.........W

I have decided to try and file a pay-pal claim, and see if pay-pay can help me on this....Pay-pal has always been good about that, but this tracking claim of delivery could mess that up.......Ebay used to be so good about these things, but nobody does anything about hackers and scammers so the are growing in numbers, even if they even caught one they wouldn't do anything and they know it.......It doesn't seem that anybody checks out new sellers, so they just sign them up, its not there money that being lost.........

Ebay has closed my request for refund because I filed a claim with Pay-Pal.....What a absolute mess and of course I'm still out 900.00......Who says the crook don't win ??   The working class doesn't win .....I have been trying to get my money for quite a while and I'm not sure I will ever get it,,,,,,

Its hard to be leave that only three people understand what this is all about, but when a seller can make tracking numbers and it shows the item was delivered it is hard to prove your case.....I have been on the phone with pay-pal four times this week with over one and a half hours on each phone call and not much is happening and my other claim I made with pay-pal was hacked into and closed by the seller.......And when happens to you I bet you will have questions then........

Will Vincent is a good and decent person who does not deserve this treatment from corporate bureaucracies. Six years ago I lost $850 sent to an eBay seller for a pair of JBL 65 speakers. They were not sent and I never received a refund. Neither eBay nor PayPal were of any help. EBay of course received their 10% fee!

Well I had my 7th phone call to pay-pal this morning for no answers and nothing done...Each phone call takes about 1 to 2 hours and you pretty much get the same answers (we are working on it) and they generally add 3-5 days on to the resolution period......I had left a neg. feed-back on ebay for this person that ebay removed , so as one can see, everybody loses but the crooks.......At this point pay-pal and ebay have done nothing but waste about 8-10 hours of my life......You have to love it...........W
