SCAM

Everyone look out for Machi Information Technology Co., Ltd. They are 100% scammers I was sent a small rubber ball, that cost maybe $2 if not less. The item I paid for was a motion ball that moves around on its own for your pet. The ball I got sent is a different size and color and does not move on its own, it is worthless. I have been in an open dispute since September. Paypal first made me file a police report over $30 and now are asking me to pay to ship the item back to china. Since this company sent out an item, paypal wont refund me. The shipping cost alone is more than the refund. So I am writing this in hopes that I save someone the trouble I am going through trying to be refunded when I clearly got scammed. You can even follow this link to see that they have done it to other people.<removed> But since they sent me something and have tracking proof paypal has sided with them. So amazing to provide tons of info and proof and still be told that you wont be getting you money back.

Who did you contact? The put a big "Respond" button next to the denied claim, but of course, they give you no way to respond. How are these people still in business?

PayPal scammed me also.  Chinese company said they sent my order.  They used a bogus tracking number from an order that was sent somewhere in my city and said it was sent.  The postal service pulled up the video of the delivery and said they see it being delivered up the hill.  I don't have a hill.  When I gave her my address she said..."oh no, that's not where this was delivered".  Paypal wanted a printed letter saying it wasn't sent to my home.  I told paypal i was recently put on oxygen 24/7 and I just can't pack up and leave whenever to pick this up.   They closed the dispute before I could get the letter emailed to my home.  Now they refuse to reopen it and help me.  I'm out $80.  I will never trust Paypal again.

Paypal can't be trusted, that's nothing new. They fall into the "necessary evil" category as far as I'm concerned. In my case, they accepted a UPS tracking, with no name, no address just a city. I ordered a 26 pound printer. The "tracked" package weighed 4 ounces. Anyone with a double digit IQ can see what's going on. I know, for a fact, that Paypal has a legal duty to make a reasoned decision, but obviously none of us can afford to fight this corrupt behemoth. I only hope that some lawyer will begin a large class action suit. I like their chances. I'll be the first to sign up.

 

My next step is the credit card company. Hopefully, they have someone there can can see through this very transparent scam.

I’m wondering if this company has changed its name to Shenzhen Jieyi Technology Co., Ltd because I had a similar experience. I ordered a kneeling bench and tool pouch. I received the pouch which was maybe worth about 3.00. I emailed the seller asking about the bench and was told I should check the advertisement because I received the item as advertised. When I sent a picture of what I received as opposed to what was advertised I was offered a 60% refund which didn’t even cover the cost of the bench or I could return the item for 20.00 to get a full refund. I told them 60% was not a fair offer and filed a dispute with PayPal. They closed the case initially indicating the seller said the item was delivered. Again I sent pictures the case was reopened and the seller offered a full refund with return of the crappy pouch. Well believing I could request a refund on the return shipping I went to the post office who informed me that not only could they not guarantee delivery, they also could not track items sent to China so I would do better accepting the 60% refund rather than risk losing additional money. I honestly think there never was a bench because I told the seller to send the bench and that would solve my issue. I never received a response to that request only continued responses offering the partial refund so I truly believe the advertisement was just a way to scam me out of money for an item that never existed. Who knows when or if I will receive even the partial refund. I’m not holding my breath at this point.

I just got it too,  It was an RC airplane.  They shipped a small metal model of an airplane.  worth maybe $5 if anyone actually wanted it.  Paypal has been no help and despite all the evidence including the online advertisement, will only refund if i send it back at a cost of probably $40.  Pay Pal has to be complict.

Beware of Danceage limited. They are an unverified PayPal user. They provide a fake tracking numbers and PayPal will side with them. I have emails from the post office to prove the tracking numbers are fake and PayPal still sides with the scammer and would not even look at the evidence! I had using PayPal for decades but will never again because they are not protecting us from these scams.

Same with: Shenzhen Daokuan Technology Co., Ltd. Ordered 24-26” Christmas hand painted peanuts characters (basic set) and company sent paper prints and cardboard that was less money than shipping. From now on, at all costs, avoid doing business with China or through PayPal. PayPal themselves are making us send the trash back at a cost with tracking that is more than the trash is worth. Who is to then say these chimes scammers won’t say otherwise on the return ship. PayPal I’m sure knows from many others who must have complained about the same company but will not shut them down. Why?
