These are scammers, they have already been fraudulent in their dealings and have gone to great lengths to get away with it because of PayPal's policy, so how can they be trusted to acknowledge the returned item has arrived back at the return address given? A lose - lose situation for the unsuspecting buyers who have already been conned out of their money through false advertisement. If PayPal was genuine about protection of their customers they would change their return policy regarding fraudulent advertisement and make the seller making the false claims, or sending fake and inferior products pay for the return of the wrong product sent...
