Now the big question is, will the OP take notice, or will they still think they are going to get the item?

Hopefully they'll come back to the post and contact eBay,Paypal and their bank.

 

Unfortunately there is another two scammers that have a few scam listing up,(they both have 5 bikes

 

"hidden" at the end of their listings,some of which are also suspect),

 

Unfortunately eBay have the search now set that only brings up 25 items when you use the links from the

 

suspect items,(so it makes it harder and to time consuming to search by category).

 

I found the other two by using the item description from one of this scammers listings.

 

 

Ah of course, yes thought it was way to good to be true.

It's in the "cars, bikes, boats" category cuboards, so it could be an uphill fight for the OP to get their money back through Paypal, eBay's MBG might not be so much of a problem though.

 

thankyou tazz.
I shall be in contact.

Well, I was bored, so I've reported the fake listing in China, (it will fall on deaf ebay ears though I betcha!)

And, I've contacted the bloke in South Aussie about this.
Also added a link to this discussion. 
See how we go.

If your payment was funded by a normal bank account and not a credit card, if you empty that account the payment "might" fail and save you some hassle. I know if people have paid by echeque (funded from a normal account) they often fail because there aren't enough funds in the account. Whatever account it came from you should ring your bank ASAP.

Emptying the bank account is not a bad idea if it's spawned an eCheque. It could save a lot of dramas if it fails to go through. I'm not sure the reason for calling the bank though. The seller doesn't get your bank account details when you pay that way. It's still just a PayPal payment.

None of the scam listings have been removed,(so that's more members getting ripped off).

 

Might have to wait once again for the negs to start hitting before they remove them,

 

I just don't get how a big company like eBay employs a Trust & Safety department that seems to have no idea

 

on what a scam listing is or how to shut them down quickly,

 

They used to be shut down within hours when T & S was in Canada,but now most times it takes for negs to

 

hit and the scammers being reported for those negs before scammers are removed,(which often takes up

 

to a month from when their first scam items "sold"),

 

Which off course means that they possible conned thousands of dollars out of more gullible members,
