ebay the enablers of scammers

Dont get pumped by ebay.scam come on the ebay website and they purchase your item without paying and ebay would send an email to you saying your item has been bought. The enable scammers , ebay told me ny item was sold and it wasn't since the buyer didn't pay he was just waiting for me to send , but the address was Nigeria ibadan , a place where scammers dwell, I investigated it and he was a scam using ebay efficiently, despite almost being scammed with aid of ebay , ebay still charged me 28 £ for my item selling . But my item didn't sell it was a scammer wanting to get it for free and I stopped it. Ebay took my 28 £ for free so I guess they finally got me.

@dasadi3 with respect to your comment you do not "ask for a refund".   You have to follow the non-payer case as we have all tried to explain to you.

If you do that then yes you will get your fees back.

But there is no other way I'm afraid.

Open the case and close after 4 days.  If you have not been paid twice then two cases!  Then - should you wish - you can relist. If you do you need to set preferences for example "UK only" "Paypal account" and "credit card on file" to weed out people who are time wasters or potential scammers.

Thank you
I have gotten to the bottom of how ebay enables scammers so ebay send am email to you saying you item has sold even though the buyer didn't pay through PayPal ok . Why would they do this why not wait for when the buyer pays also ebay should not be collecting fees from sellers who haven't been paid

This wouldn't work, as if it was collection item & buyer paid cash seller may not mark as paid to avoid fees.
