I am being scammed by what is obviously a very experienced fraudster whose entire operation is designed to get around Paypal's buyer protection and rip people off. I bought two large cheeseboards off this buyer and they supplied a worthless ring instead. They first tried to pass it off as a "gift" because I complained that my order hadn't turned up. They then tried to get me to accept the ring instead of my order. When I refused, they tried to offer me a 20% refund in exchange for keeping the ring. It's an obvious deliberate scam so I reported them for supplying something significantly different to what I ordered.
They finally offered a full refund but only AFTER I return their cheap ring to a FAKE address in the UK (they are a China-based business). This is clearly part of the scam. If they don't receive the product back, I don't get my refund. They are banking on me either not being willing to pay the extortionate postage to send it to the UK, te parcel being delayed by Covid and failing to arrive within the two week deadline (likely) and/or never arriving because that address DOES NOT EXIST.
Paypay clearly hasn't read the information I've sent them telling them this company is conducting a fraudulent operation. I now have only two options - send the product to a fake address and spend MORE money to lose all my money, or close the dispute. I'm furious and I think this is disgusting.
How else can I get Facebook to review this company's outrageously dodgy behaviour? I want a full refund and I want these scammers shut down. They are still selling this product and I'm certain they are doing the same thing to all buyers.
