Hi Guys,

Just a heads up, there appears to be some one in France with a taste for 
Nixie Clocks.

I had a French customer hit Buy It Now on eBay on a £229 clock, I received 
notification through from Paypal that all was ok and given a confirmed 
shipping address, so sent it tracked via UPS and thought no more of it.

I then received an email from this French chap today querying why I had 
sent him an empty box. He was just as confused as I was - I had a signed 
Proof of delivery from UPS. He then explained that someone had hacked his 
eBay account and more importantly his Credit card details. Someone had 
logged into his eBay account, brought my clock and then given a false 
delivery address. He has reported this to the Police and his Bank.

The French Guy had also reported this to Paypal about 3 weeks ago, and 
thankfully because he had done this, they were aware of Fraud on his 
account. The next thing I knew is that Paypal had removed £259 from my 
account and put it on hold. Interestingly the French guy never opened a 
case on eBay or with Paypal. I called Paypal and they will refund my money 
and also the money back to the French guy.

If anyone has recently sold a clock to France, just email the buyer and 
check it is Legit.. as someone there seems to like them.

Cheers,
Paul
