[DeTomaso] NPC If you get scammed on ebay

[Ken Green]

Bought some tools on ebay that looked too good to be true, relying on the ebay buyer's protection, ordered the tools.  Never got the tools, ebay said to file a claim through paypal which I did.  Ebay sent paypal tracking info that showed the tools delivered so paypay refused my claim.  The shipping was USPS. I went to a local post office and they ran detailed tracking for the tracking number ebay showed, and it was to a different Whittier address and weighted 3 ounces, the tools would have probably been over 10 pounds.  Never found a way to report this to ebay, but called paypal and was emailed a link to upload the detailed tracking info.  I have no idea how a fraudulent seller found an UPSP tracking number to a delivery to Whittier, maybe they mailed something just to set the tracking number, or?  I'll never trust ebay again.
