Default Re: Being Ripped Off By Online Sellor

Thanks Growltigger. I had already planned on letting the matter run its course.

Amazon no longer lists the seller as a merchant seller, and the guy I talked to on the phone, Todd, had let it slip that others had been calling about the same thing.

So the ball is rolling, albeit slowly.

And BTW, that was an inventive way to get your money back. Good for you. I had a guy I worked with run a Ebay scam where he would list new Computer parts for diret cheap then send the poeple junk with a little sticker on them that said they were P 150's when they were actually P 75's and such.

He got away with it for a long time, was actually able to buy a corvette with his earnings, but the law caught up to him and he got in some serious trouble. He was a weasel so he got what he deserved. We all found out about it when they showed up to work to arrest him for mail fraud or something like that. Come to find out he was stealing stuff from work as well and using his position to order stuff, using other peoples names, then intercepting the package, his position allowed him to do this, and then take it home and sell it on ebay or whatever.

I hope the SOB who ran this scam through Amazon gets caught, but the chances are he is already running a new scam through them much to the same as his old one. Oh well, buyer be ware.
