    Scammed for $3000 - eBay is refusing to refund.
                     

    Hello,

     

    I bought an RTX 4090 brand new for $3000 AUD and the seller sent a fake tracking number.  Just a day before ebay was due to help, he added a tracking number that showed it was already delivered 3 days ago, but nothing ever arrived. My mum went to the post office and checked with them. and the new tracking number was an envelope when the item is 3kg+ and judging by the feedback a second victom gave, it probably wasn't even shipped to my address. eBay is refusing to help even with it being an obvious scam.

    Just wanted to update,

     

    I have been refunded conditionally the full amount via my bank last year, and the latest email from them was 2.5 months ago about updating me on the dispute when they have more information.

     

    I am pretty happy that this situation feels over now, and the worst period of my life is behind me (I hope). 

    Thank you for all your help, without you I would've never been able to give the evidence about the website providing the fake AUSPOST delivered form to the bank, as well as providing another victim's shipping label photo being exactly the same as mine (other than photoshopped address). Without that, this could've been an extremely sad ending.
