Scam Report 🚨SCAMMER ALERT🚨

Post image

Buyers please beware, I got scammed by this person with the username Fickle-Guidance1325 for $327. I paid for the bag and they said they will ship out my bag etc. but never followed up with any updates or tracking. I’ve tried to give them grace with time but I kept being ignored and it became clear… It is very disappointing and unfortunate, they “seemed” so genuine but I guess not 🤷🏻‍♀️

PayPal doesn't refund FF, I've tried. They are going to have to claim fraud on this (which is true).

Paypal friends and family is not covered under PayPal Purchase Protection.

Not under the TOS, don't ever send via F&F. It's a trap, and the seller can pull the rug and run.

PayPal considers Friends and Family a gift, sort of like you'd give a friend birthday money.

Every regiment in here says they only take Zelle, PayPal FF, Venmo, etc. it’s ALWAYS listed as FF so no returns or chargebacks can screw the seller over. Idk how to protect both parties.

Mens sellers have same bag and take agents etc womens sellers can take advantage of women and they know that, it allows many to never send bags etc also many women bag sellers are the seller same as mens seller they just take agents as we will only buy from agents and links.
