I've just been scammed out of A$1,100. I advertised an Apple iPad Air 4 with a Magic Keyboard and was contacted by a Louise [removed]. She asked me to send her a PayPal request for funds. I received what appeared to be a PayPal email that the amount was pending and would be paid to me once I posted the item and sent them (PayPal) the tracking number. I did this but after the item was delivered according to the Australian Post tracking I still hadn't received payment. I texted her and got a response asking me to post the item to NSW. I immediately replied but then she left the group. I checked her FB profile and it's disappeared. I tried to raise a PayPal dispute but got an automated reply to say that I couldn't. On closer inspection of the PayPal emails I see that they were from Gmail accounts. How foolish of me. I feel violated. I don't think there is a chance in hell of getting anything done about this. If it helps anyone here are the scanner's details: [removed] Name Hansen [removed] Parcel Locker [removed]
