https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Buying/New-scam-on-eBay/m-p/7912602#M78295 <P>I bought an iPhone on eBay and received an alert stating that the item would be delivered the next day. The next day, I received another alert to confirm that it had been delivered. I was at home all day, and I never received anything. I called Royal Mail to find out what had happened, and they told me I would need to call back the next day. I then called eBay, and they opened an INR case for me.</P> <P>I called RM this morning, and they said the item was delivered to another address, and they don't know why. The agent then gave the name of the business where it was delivered. I googled the company and decided to visit to see what had happened. On arrival at the industry, I was shown the parcel that had arrived.</P> <P>It wasn't the phone, but a large envelope with a red bedsheet inside.&nbsp;</P> <P>Now, this is where it gets strange: the tracking number on the packaging matches the one on my item (see picture below). The name on the parcel isn't my name, but the business name. It's a scam, but I don't know how they were able to change the address and name with a different tracking number.</P> <P>It appears to be a new scam circulating on eBay, as I can still see numerous iPhones matching the exact details of the one I purchased. The phones are mainly brand new and at a lower price than usual.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>The picture is the actual item that was delivered to an address that didn't match mine. As soon as the item was posted, I received an alert from eBay to confirm it had been posted. Then, when it was delivered, I received another alert to confirm it had been delivered.</P> Mon, 08 Dec 2025 11:18:40 GMT daban-22 2025-12-08T11:18:40Z
