**Dji Drone Scam Beware
I want to report this to people who isnt already aware of a seller(s) is listing as a seller with Dji matrice 30t drones at around $2000-$3000. He creates a label and ships right away a location somewhere near where your address is an empty box hoping Ebay will release the funds as soon as the item shows delivered in which I read online has happened. I had a feeling it might be too good to be true but I thought with what's going on with Dji it might be an opportunity to get a great deal on their drones. I messaged him shortly after the purchase and asked him a few questions to feel him out and got no response which didnt surprise me. I contacted Ebay while ththe empty box was in transit and made them aware of the situation. Theres a open case so im waiting and wondering, hoping they dont release the funds to this dbag. People like this are going to make people not want to shop on Ebay if something isnt done about this And it keeps happening. There needs to be a better way to verify anyone who signs up with Ebay so they can get rid of this scum. Ive been a customer for 10 years and have bought and sold 10s of $1000s of on this platform and my future with Ebay will depend on what happens with this situation. I dont need anyone chiming in to say how I shouldve known because you dont know. Ive gotten great buys before in similar situations with the low pricing and deals like that dont last long. Anyways beware of this filth

"I had a feeling it might be too good to be true but I thought with what's going on with Dji it might be an opportunity to get a great deal on their drones".
One of the first signs of a scam is a low price for an item. If the item was also coming from China, that's another Red Flag.
"I messaged him shortly after the purchase and asked him a few questions to feel him out and got no response which didnt surprise me".
If you have any concern about a listing, the time to message the seller is Before you make a purchase, and if they do not reply, find another one.
We might be able to give you more help if you post the ebay item number. You can find that in the Order details under the item title. It is 12 characters long without any hyphens.
