Ebay scam

[sheffieldsvintage]

I see we have a new tactical scam from Ebay themselves today!

 They tell you there is a balance to spend but when you go through to actually buy something with your 'ebay funds' it says oh you have no funds so choose another payment option !! Hahaha how funny.......

I'm not that easily scammed 😅

Oh and I was already aware that my Ebay funds were zero as I don't sell anything since they ruined our platform 😪

This is Kafka-esque and you have to either laugh or cry. Thank you for making me smile at the ridiculousness of it 😉

It may not be a good idea to buy things from an eBay balance anyway (even if you can). There's no third party such as PayPal or a bank to turn to if the deal goes pear-shaped and eBay doesn't help.
