Scammed

Hi 

Today I got scammed by a user with a pickup scam scheme he told me to send him the code and I did out of stupidity

 

I tried contacting support but live chat isn't open until 3 hours 

 

I am afraid that even if I contact them they won't be able to refund me because it had a pick up delivery even tho its just a digital code

 

Can anyone help me with this matter?

Thank you

Re: Scammed

I don't believe eBay will help you get a refund Providing them with the code is proof of delivery.

 

File a chargeback with your credit card co.

Is this regarding the Fortnite item for $25.00 by chance?

Re: Scammed

Yeah I didn't get anything he just sent me a used code off the internet after calling him a scammer

 

He might think that the used code could save him from getting the money refunded

Re: Scammed

On each Ebay page there is a link to contact Customer Service at the top of the page and again at the bottom of the page.

I would suggest that you contact Ebay for Business on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter for the better trained CSRs.

Here are your options for contacting Ebay Customer Service. Please be aware that for social media CS, you send them a Private Message and briefly explain what your problem or issue is. Feel free to leave your Name, address, phone number and/or your email address in this message. It is private and secure and it may help to speed up the response for you.

https://twitter.com/askebay

https://www.facebook.com/ebay

https://www.instagram.com/ebayforsellers/

Your options will be on the left. If you use the link below you can only get to the Automated Assistant or Chat box type AGENT in the box and hit enter. You will then get more options. Not all options are available 24/7. It will depend on staffing available. So sometimes you can request a call back and sometimes you can't. Sometimes you have the Chat option available and other times it won't me. If it is important to you to use one of those options, just try back later.

If you use a cell phone or other mobile device, you may need to turn off your Spam filter so that Ebay can call you.

If you are a seller outside of the US or Canada, you will need to use the Chat Option.
