Hi,

 

Iam a software engineer from texas , usa. I recently sold an Ipad 2 via an auction through

ebay, The buyer end me a mail via ebay that he needs the product to shipped to Jakarta, Indonesia

and the address is specified in the e bay mail. I asked for the payment and he done it via a e-cash

then i informed i don't accept it or ship only once the cash got credited, then he replies that

he wants it urgently and canceled that transaction and done via Pay pal , the same day

i shipped the product using USPS EXPRESS and send him the Tracking information, this was happened four days

back and today i got a reissue for payment mail from pay pal as the buyer asked for repayment and message

that unauthorized access. I am first time selling through e bay but had bought so many things from e bay and that all

works fine. Now i am so dippressed by this cheaters activity. I am mentioning the following details also

1. Shipped address

Amanda Jakarta Timur ,DKI jAKATA  Indonesia

 

2. Shipment Label:- 3.e Bay  mail

I had won bidding the auction. Would you give me the invoice with total price includes shipping cost to my client, and calculate my order using USPS Express Mail International (EMI) option which estimates 3-5 business days only, Because i need this item to present it as a birthday gift for my client. Are you ready to shipped this item today? If you could make it today, I will make the payment right now. Please let me know and fast reply would be appreciated.

 

I would like to have the item shipped to the address below:

Amanda

 

Jakarta Timur, DKI Jakarta  Indonesia

 

Email reference id: [#05cc14f34a5e4206aa59694fff3169e8#]

Please don't remove this number. eBay customer support may ask you for this number, if you should need assistance.

yes,it is a scam.

 

was the address same as on his paypal account ?

 

if it was different,then there is nothing you can do now . you lost your item,payment refunded .

 

Just learn from it and dont fall for it in the future .

You need to have proof of delivery (online tracking number) to their paypal confirmed address .

was his paypal address for the same country ? indonesia ?

 

you might get away with tracking,if its the same country .

 

When did you post it ? if its not too late,contact your postal services,and ask them not to send it,tell them its been a mistake .
