CARD SCAM

I HAVE BEEN SCAMMED BY A LOAN COMPANY USING AN EBAY GIFT CARD. CAN I PUT THE COMPANIES NAME ON THIS FORUM TO SEE WHO ELSE HAS? PLEASE DONT COME DOWN HARD ON ME, I FEEL BAD ENOUGH. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS SCAM BEFORE LAST NIGHT.

CARD SCAM

There are several clever scams going on where the scammer pretends that eBay is involved in some way.  I doubt that the Loan Company is really involved either.  Scammers just make stuff up to gain the victim's trust.

 

I am so sorry this happened ... but there is absolutely nothing you can do if you paid the scammer in gift cards, Bitcoin, direct transfer, etc.  [The only reason you were forced to pay by an unusual method is because the method is untraceable and irretrievable.]
