[DeTomaso] NPC If you get scammed on ebay

I think I will get a refund because I provided evidence to paypal in a detailed USPS tracking report that listed the address and weight.  Other than to Whittier, the address was totally different, and the tool set was probably more like 20 pounds, not the 3 ounces in the detailed report.  I don't know if that information is available from UPS or FEDEX, but it was from the USPS.  It was clear that the tracking number was not for the tool set.

I don't know how the tracking number was entered but ebay needs to get smarter.

Ken,

Don't give up!  I had scams too and always got paid by eBay.  Resubmit your claim with the documentation and explanation to eBay.
I'm sure you will get a refund.

I got a scammed on a laptop. $2,000.  eBay paid.  I sold a Taylor guitar ($2,500) and someone stole it off a UPS truck. I got paid
and the buyer got their money back. So, keep trying with eBay. 

Also, ALWAYS ALWAYS look at a sellers information. If they have sold nothing and have "0" feedback. It’s a SCAM.

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.
