You are absolutely correct. Mine was through Facebook, but hiding behind the name of a legitimate company. I'm making progress on the dispute because finally reached an agent who has his act together. He told me not to cancel the dispute if I was asked to do so (I wouldn't have anyway but his comment was refreshing). They have indeed asked me to cancel, and sent me a bogus tracking number that said my item was in Hayward, CA 8 days ago (interesting how it got there from China when it was ordered on the 4th and supposedly shipped on the 9th). I am betting that this tracking number is the screenshot which is cut and pasted onto hundreds of disputes. Hayward, incidentally, is 90 miles from where I live and so if it was there on 4/8 (and I've checked several times since, hasn't moved, so it's bogus) it would be here so I could refuse it. I will be refusing at the door and stating "product not as ordered" in the very unlikely event that I get anything at all. There needs to be accountability for this, Paypal is complicit in this fraud for sure.
