I am simply amazed with this chargeback fraud which PayPal is 100% apart of. Curious how they split it up. I've noticed sellers "covered" under the Seller Protection Joke, still are found responsible even with a mountain of evidence to support their case. Well, I fell victim to it. I sold a camera recently, $ 3,000.00 and a few weeks later, the buyer posted a chargeback. Big surprise. Apparently I wasn't covered because I shipped the item to a different address than what was posted in the transaction details. The buyer told me he lived in RI, and said the camera was a gift for his daughter in Georgia, so I shipped it there. Well, camera is gone, PayPal withdrew imaginary money from my account cause I had a 0.00 balance (sort of like the treasury with imaginery money) and wants me to pay 3,000.00 lol so lose in total of $6,000.00 😠 I think not. After seeing sellers in the same situation as me, even being covered under that crappy Seller Program, I see I'm not alone. I will NEVER use eBay & PayPal ever again, close my accounts, there won't be 0.01 cent going towards this fraud. Unfortunately, the buyers financier will never side with sellers, so we're always screwed. What I've noticed: Buyers wait at least a few weeks or month to gain the positive feedback so that they can continue to scam more sellers. Once you leave feedback, that's it. Sellers, be careful leaving feedback! Even buyers with over 300 positive have been known chargeback scammers. And best of all, avoid using eBay. Looks like NO payment methods are secure. It went from fraudulent money orders/grams/checks and they got to PayPal. And PayPal is siding with them blowing steam saying their fighting for the sellers lol.. and it just happens that 95% of chargebacks go against the sellers EVEN when covered under their flimsy Seller Protection Program and sellers are all victims. From Power Sellers, to beginners, no one is safe from chargebacks!
