Hello. Today I received an email from ebay. This was an item I listed as buy it now. It sold, I received full payment, then shipped it. It was delivered a few days later on Aug 29th. Then today I received this email. I am just trying to figure out how this is going to work. Did the buyer just get the item and their money refunded? I dont see anything taken out of my account, and their has been no contact from the buyer asking to send it back or any contact at all from them. Here is the email with all personal info removed.
"Hello Seller, We had to cancel bids and purchases on the following item(s) for the buyer, (Buyers Name), because they were made without the account owner's permission:
(Item # and Item description)
Please note that we're working with the account owner to prevent any additional unauthorized activity.

We’ve also made it easy to relist your item if it was removed. Although the item is no longer available in search listings, you will find it in the “Sold” section of My eBay. For more information, please visit:

--Selling tip--
To help you avoid this situation in the future, consider setting a Buy It Now price and requiring buyers to make an immediate payment. For more information on immediate payments, visit:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/pay/require-immediate-payment.html
We also recommend you take the following actions if this buyer won the item:
- If you haven't received payment, don't complete the sale or send the item to the buyer.
- Don't communicate with the buyer directly.
- Verify any payments you've been notified of by logging in to your PayPal account (or other online payment service).
- If the buyer requests refunds or additional payments, don't send any money without contacting eBay first.
- If you've already sent the item, try contacting the shipping carrier to find out if you can stop shipment.
If you have any concerns or questions, click "Help & Contact" at the top of most eBay pages.
We're sorry for any inconvenience, and we thank you for your patience and cooperation.
Thanks,
eBay
