How do I report a fraud seller?

[huigelu]

I bought a Galaxy S6 and the seller sent me an empty envelop. Luckily I did not sign the parcel and took a photo instead.

Then the seller said his wife made a mistake and he would send me the phone next day. But no response since then.

I found that seller just registered three weeks ago and he also sold another 4 mobile phones(S6 and iphone 5s) in one week. He said that S6 is an unwanted gift. So 5 "unwanted expensive gifts" are on sale now.... I am quite sure he is fraud.

I believe Ebay or Paypal will refund me. However, I want to report the seller so that no other people would be cheated. Because if some other buyer sign the empty envelope, it is hard to provide evidence to Ebay for refund.

Be cautious about such trick.

If it's on the internet, then it must be true......

Almost 10 years later and these scams are still going strong. Will never use ebay again.

Luckily I got a refund when I saw no tracking number sent. However immediately after raising a case the scammer tried sending an empty envelope, which I looked at but didn't sign for.

A simple search will turn up hundreds of these scam shops. They have a load of cheap items drop shipped from a real world retailer, then start listing scam items of much higher value.

I can find scam shops with a simple search for hot items priced slightly low, from new sellers with weird unrelated items for sale. So I'm sure ebay could do something if they wanted......

There is a report button every listing - maybe try that.

Leaving ebay over one issue. Seeya! I'd hate to see how you cope with real life.

You're hardly using it now.
