I agree and it is clearly a SCAM Yesterday I spent all day jumping through hoops like a trained seal for paypal we pay them to secure our money the tracking number does not even go to my address it is very clear the paypal customer service agreed with me and I am in messenger with them. well I had to call the post office to try and get them to give me information I cna not get on the USPS website because that option has been disabled most likely for this reason.. so I had to battle freakin stupid AI some how got humans form other countries who gave no care about my plight told me they could not help me sent me Elses where made me cuss and want to break my phone . I have PTSD by the way this stress is not good for me.. So I do have an email from the post office but I see in messenger they also want a photo copy of the damn package how do I get that I never got one??? I swear paypal I am done with them once i get my money back I am closing this account I had more then a decade forever this is no longer a safe place for my money no way paypal sucks and will go under unless thye get some real humans with real brains to run the show and turn it back into what it use to eb and facebook well that is a hell pit I wish some rich person would grow a brain and make another facebook type platform so we all can leave facebook it is becoming that abd.. You cna nto blame starving people in other countries trying to make  a living but I am sorry by American standards I am near staving myself and the poor robbing from the poor is a very sad situation. Why i took a chance on those crabs was because I recently was diagnosed with Alpha Gal and Mast cell activation syndrome which my list of foods I cna not eat is basically Everything that is typically in the American diet The restriction list is long and crab is not on it and would have been a treat I cna never eat at a fats food restaurant again or really most any restaurant is out and I will never be able to eat birthday cake again.. those crabs would have been a huge treat for me .. why I took the chance ..  ...

 was not only scammed but I did a dispute which was reversed because some how they had something delivered to my small town which never came to me .. it may have even been a post card as far as I know.. this is bad I am loosing a whole lot of faith in paypal and closing their access to my cc tomorrow . I knew this would be an issue when they stopped phone support.. I may be out 54 dollars if so I will never use paypal ever again and I have been a client for many years even ran a business through it .. but these foreign scams are really getting smart  ...
