Hello all, hope you're all having a good summer.
Wanted to warn everyone about an eBay customer/scam artist, His ebay
ID is reds27. He purchased and paid for a high-end item from me on
ebay but asked me to ship it to him to an un-confirmed paypal address
(an address different from what was in the paypal payment receipt).
This, of course, is not allowed and after talking with PayPal, we were
told that (1) he had to change his address on PayPal to the desired
delivery address, (2) it would have to be a 'confirmed delivery
address' before we mail it out and (3) we had to refund the paypal
payment, and re-invoice him to have his new 'paypal confirmed address'
reflected in the new paypal payment. He agreed to all this but never
paid the newly created invoice.
I did research within our emails and found out this same guy (reds27)
tried to pull a similar stunt back in January 2018, also for a
high-end item. For that transaction, he also requested it be shipped
to an unconfirmed address. Fortunately, by the time he made that
request, the merchandise had already been sent to his confirmed paypal
address.
Tonight, when I called eBay to discuss, I was told that the account of
this eBay customer, reds27, had been 'compromised' (as they put it)
back in December 2017, eBay claimed that by 'compromised' they meant
that someone else was using his account! I asked eBay why, if his
account was 'compromised', was the account not closed. Needless to
say, I did not get a straight answer from eBay. Some things are never
going to change.
So, I blocked his eBay user ID and thought others here might want to
do the same. Here is the 'block an ebay user' URL:
https://pages.ebay.com/services/buyandsell/biddermanagement.html
Again, his ebay ID is reds27, and his name is CHARLES BLOTTNER. I see
he had one other transaction on eBay of recent.
Have a great rest of the summer!
