I just ran into this for me for the first time. Sold a new in box iPhone 3 states away. Customer claimed it did not turn on. Ebay forced return and provided shipping label. A few days later the case was closed and I had not even received the phone back.
Upon calling eBay they gave me a tracking # (not the one eBay provided but one customer did on their own). I called the post office and it was addressed and delivered to a restaurant in my hometown. On top of the return was dropped off at the town next to mine and not where I shipped the item. It was also a letter weighing only 2 onces.
This is where it gets weirder. I was preparing my appeal and printing the order details and went to the "send invoice" screen to print the original order and under the buyer address, instead of the one that I shipped to it now had the restaurant name and address where they made the return to. eBay could not answer how that address got there.
I have enough evidence to win the appeal but I'm curious if this has happened to anyone else. Was the buyer able to change the address, was it an eBay glitch, how did the buyer get someone 3 states over to mail something for them to show fraudulent proof?

It doesn’t matter how or what you sign. Anyone can change their signature. Using paper “thingys” isn’t any safer than using the electronic signer.
Paper signatures may possibly be deemed more reliable & credible, for experts to verify and authenticate than electronic signatures ?

I sign my name pretty much the same way each time. No two signatures are exact, but close enough to see it is me.
Electronic signatures look nothing like my signature, especially as a leftie where I end up erasing half of it.

The signature is not visible, and eBay/PayPal do not look at the signature.
In the same way they only check tracking says delivered to city or zipcode --
eBay/PayPal only checks that tracking says it was signed for. Kick-Ass. Mic Drop.
