Fraud Buyer

Hello,

 

I got a message from fraud buyer that he wants to buy the item(new mac laptop) I listed on ebay. I recevived few emails about the shipment verificaiton and item has been paid, So I shipped the item assuming they are valid. After speaking ebay customer support I reliased its a fraud buyer who never made the payment. Is there any way I can get my shipped item back? How do I tackle this? I have already reported this on ebay but customer support suggested to report it to police.

 

Thank you.

I'm afraid this is a very well known fraud. You need to report it to the police. They will probably refer it to action fraud as an internet based scam, but there is very little chance you will get your MacBook back.

 

EBay is a very risky place to sell anything of value, and new sellers are often targeted.
