Over the last two years, I have had at least a half dozen scammers try to purchase stuff from me and eBay eventually blocked the purchase. As you know, pain is in the **bleep**, but at least they did not get the product.
Two months ago, I sold an item worth $999.00. For which I make a marginal profit. Then out of nowhere, I get a dispute claimed against me. Long story short, a GOOD ebayer had his credit card information taken from him, and someone went on eBay and purchased my product. eBay ALLOWED that end-user on the system and ALLOWED them to make the purchase. The bank wanted information from me submitted to prove what I sold. I sent it, including proof of delivery and signature. Of Course, it did not match the GOOD Ebayer who had been taken advantage of. OF Course, the BANK told eBay that it was a fraudulent transaction. The BANK gave the GOOD ebayer his money. Then eBay took it out of my bank account. eBay stole money from me. I was also SCAMMED by the bad actors and punished for an eBay system that these bad actors thrive on. Do you know how long it takes to make $1000.00 back? I only sell a handful of items per year. But I probably purchase about $4000 to $12,000 worth of items annually on eBay. I am DISPUTING this, but eBay needs to return the money they stole from my account.
