This guide will astonish any one that pays via Paypal.
Up to now i have had great faith in the paypal system then i came across a very clever scam.
This has been approved by Paypal so i thought everyone should share this and make people aware of this scam.
I became aware of this to my cost after purchasing a keep fit item from a high power seller that trades by the name of PRINCEFANUK
Firstly the item did not arrive so emails were exchanged with the seller.
No reply received.
Emailed seller again to be replied with the comment that the item was out of stock and would be posted asap.
After weeks and still no product I lost it and complained to paypal.
The start of the complaints procedure.
This is where the clever part comes in so read carefully.
The seller has a post office tracking ref. that paypal recognizes as official delivery to my address.
This would be indeed true apart from the cleverness of this seller.
The tracking no. is genuine but it clearly shows that any package was delivered to a close neighbours address and it was addressed to a company name and not my own name.
Quickly legged round to my neighbour to collect my parcel.
Guess what I found,my neighbour handed me an envelope containing a blank piece of paper, a pretty neat scam and its been ok`d by paypal as being perfectly all right despite my complaints.
So lets all share this one as its very very clever.
