2 scammers in a row, what a week. Thanks ebay......NOT

[yesdealer]

Hi guys

Anyone noticed the increasing number of scammers (or at least scammer wanna-be) on ebay?

Thanks to the non-sense return process, it's so easy to threaten seller and steal the item, thus everyone is trying to get something for nothing now.

=============================================================

1)

We sold a dress to a lady in UK (from my other ID), guess what she's complaining about it?

" The dress is puckered ! I am very unhappy ! You are a shady seller and I want full refund plus return postage all paid to me before I send the dress back you ! I am 61 years ago so I am not lying."

Riiiiiiiight, the dress is puckered; no damage, just puckered ................. let it sink in for a moment.

And she wants full refund plus return postage granted beforehand.

Oh, she is also 61 years old, thus she has lost the ability to lie, hasn't she? 

* I meant no offence to seniors, 61 yo is not that old anyway.

==============================================================

2)

Another buyer, sorry no, another scammer from Sydney, brought a pair of pants. (also from my other ID)

She complains that the size is not as described, which is most likely untrue because I personally measured them.

"Fine," I still politely replied, "just send the pants back, and if it's a mistake I made, I will sure grant full refund and return postage".

Her answer was:

"NO! I want full refund first ! Give me my money then I will send the pants back, or I will report you to ebay and start a 'not as described' case. I really don't want to but I will ! "

Soon after she gave me a negative feedback.

=============================================================

We (me and me wife) did encounter many scammers over the years, we hate them to the bones for sure, but at least they knew what they were doing; such as using stolen credit card, hacked paypal account, file charge back, told us to send item to different country ...etc.

Now look at these pathetic clowns, they know nothing about rules and policies, and yet they are still trying to become a scammer.

All you need to do is to threaten seller, right? EASSSY.

Thanks ebay, you scammer breeder.

Talking about scammers, I recently received a call from an eBay scammer and he asked me to do the transaction outside of eBay, but he is very stupid thinking that I will fell for it, however I'm well educated, will never be drawn into that and I immediately hung up the phone.

Please don't ever put personal details on a public forum, I appreciate you're trying to do the right thing but if you get one digit wrong it could cause major problems....................

All you can do is handle the situation as best you can, then make sure it doesn't happen in the future. Block them from buying from you again. If you require payment within 7 days+, reduce it to 3 days.
