Someone with a person other than a mediator.
Imagine: you want to buy fast and modern laptop, but you see it in retail stores and large areas of online spending tons of money. Where to go? Right! They connect to the Internet, launch your favorite browser and enter www.ebay.com. ”
Here you can find a laptop and the price you like, you think: “Well. This is a very good business! I am going to win this auction!” And you win.
What is the provider and ask how to pay. Seller answer is that you must send money to him / her. After sending money, and so … nothing. Try to contact the seller, but nobody replies to their messages.
You can use eBay to receive information from the seller. What the hell? I have the money to someone else! You have the floor, and found that the seller does not know that this is eBay. Someone used his credit card to register.
Here you can find the phone number of person to receive money from the order. You call them and I know that this is only the money they receive their orders on behalf of a foreign company.
You do not know what eBay is. Heck! They want your money back! But this is very problematic …
How do I know that this is impossible!
What did you learn from it?
Before bidding at the auction:
- Look for the payment of the page. If the seller accepts money orders and cash equivalents control only when it is fraud in 95%. Feedback means almost nothing. I will explain later.
- Ask the seller for his phone number and call the seller is a person who is the real point of sale.
- If the seller is rejected or avoided contact with you over the phone that eBay in escrow service. Use only the deposit eBay! Do not trust other companies.
- If your payment to the seller http://www.PayPal.com always check that the seller of the same name on eBay. If the other 95% of cases of fraud.
- You become a seller on the phone and talks with him on the payment method may submit bids at auctions safely.
Some advanced knowledge:
I said that early voting does not mean anything. Why?
As some of the artist fraudsters buy eBay accounts with a large number of votes.
This acquisition by hackers to overcome the legal and inactive user accounts over a long period of accounts. This also applies to the aid of PayPal accounts.
And why should focus only on sellers? Reaper, because they are consistent fake escrow from the scene and try to rip it.
Their website looks very good. You will receive professional design and great domain name. But … the only way to take their money and run.
Very often, such services say that the transfer of money to bank accounts abroad or E-Gold account.
Remember that most of the fraud artists simply can not take the next step if we want to ask you about the eBay Web site or call deposit. I know because I Ripper in retirement.
