Tracking Number

[jvin1647]

Buyer, please beware. I ordered a table and got my tracking number. The item was shipped thru UPS. I sign up to UPS to text me when the item is delivered. As soon as I got the text that the item is delivered, I go out and check the door, the item was not there. I called UPS and they said the item was delivered and they will try to locate the item. After a half an hour I decided to call UPS again. The lady that I talk to, told me that the shipper for the tracking number that I have is Amazon not Ebay and that the buyer is not me. UPS sent me an email with the address and name for that tracking number. Lo and Behold it's not me. The only thing that was the same is the zip code. I message the seller and informer him/her of what I found out. He responded that if he can't find the item he will ship me another one. Sure enough he gave me a new tracking number. I sent him a message asking him if this another person's tracking number? A few hours after that he cancelled my order and his reason was that shippers address. After a few hours I check his profile and now his profile is already cancelled.

Good to hear that ebay NARU'd one scammer.   He'll be back though, with a different ID.

You were lucky to get a refund!

Sorry you had to go through this, and a collective "Thank You" from all who buy here. And you did it all without eBay's 'help'!

I called my credit card company and told them what happened. They credited the money to account right away. Then I talked to my cousin about what happened, she was also a victim of the same MO from a different website. UPS told her that they (UPS) got a lot of calls with the same issue.

I called my credit card company right away and explained the situation and they credited my the amount right away. You know when you get the tracking number, it only shows the city but not the exact address. So when UPS checks your tracking number they''ll tell you that it's delivered. I was just lucky because the lady that I talked to, ask me, what my exact address is and where I buy the goods. She said the seller for that tracking number is amazon and the buyer is not my me.  They emailed me the dispute and sure enough the name and address of the buyer is different.
