Seller Alert - Buyers of LEGO and credit card fraud

[orangegroveroad]

Sellers of LEGO Sets.  I have noticed a disturbing trend as I have now posted LEGO sets again after a brief holiday from doing so.  WOW.  Every single set that I posted and sold initially was a credit card fraud scam.  I shipped the set, brand-new, with tracking, and the day of receipt or the next day of delivery confirmation a case was filed.  In all cases the buyer, won, I was covered but this is really disturbing!  I have alerted merchant support but I am hoping ebay security is already involved.  Seller protection or not I have been cancelling all LEGO purchases that are not going to the buyer's address or the buyer has 1 to 5 feedback responses.

Any other LEGO sellers having this same issue?

You say you were covered so I assume they were charge backs for unauthorized or unrecognized transactions?

each buyer did a "did not recognize transaction" indicates stolen credit info.  Woodbridge, VA tried to buy again....same set with a dispute from before. Police should work on a sting if this home is receiving stolen goods.
