Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

Last time he was on was 9/11. Did you pay by credit card through paypal? If so you can file a chargeback and skip dealing with paypal.

For future reference to anyone, when dealing with questionable sellers ALWAYS pay by credit card through paypal. That way if the deal goes south you will be guaranteed a refund no matter what paypal says.

Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

I know you started this thread but some people may not see it and do business with this guy again. I would also leave some feedback about what happened in his classified rating so if someone does they can atleast see he has had one bad transaction in the past before they send him any money

Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

First you'll need to access your paypal account and see where the money comes from first when you buy something.

In my case, If I don't have a paypal balance (which I usually don't) the money comes out of my bank account first and credit card second if the funds aren't available in my bank account.

That is my default payment method, but I do have the choice to choose the account, and when dealing with forum members I pay with my visa card. That way if the member screws me I contact my credit card company and request a chargeback. Paypal has no choice but to release the payment back to my credit card when they request it. Which in turns releases me from that debt on my CC, like it never happened.

You need to find out how the money was paid, if it was a paypal balance you might as well give up. If it was bank account you'll need to check with the bank regarding policies making payments like this, if it was a debit or credit card your as good as gold and will get your refund.

Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

I have had some success with my bank getting the money back for me but the credut card thing is the easiest way. If you did pay with bank account you should at least ask your bank if they can help you in this situation because it never hurts to ask

Same thing your telling us, you paid for an item through mail and never received it and want to file a dispute or chargeback to get your money back.

And like the others said, don't forget to leave the proper feedback.

You click on the rating on thier profile, but I went ahead and did that for you. Click on submit a feedback rating....

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/itrader.php?u=62251

Make sure you copy the original thread that he had the item listed for sale and paste it into the feedback.

Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

I wasn't sure if every bank would do what mine did or not, I go to a local bank in my small town and they got my money back for me because I didn't get what I paid for. I don't know what else to suggest you try since Paypal will do nothing

Re: iroc88lb9 scammed me

keep us posted on what happens, I hope he gave you his phone number this time so you can keep in touch with him about this situation. I don't see any reason they could say it was your fault when you paid for the item and he just never shipped them, that is on him you kept your end of the bargain. I always try to ship the very next day after I receive payment and if there is a delay (usually only a day or two) I contact the buyer to let them know. I like for my items to arrive as soon as possible and am sure everyone else does also when purchasing from me

just like i thought, for whatever reason, last time I checked paypal, when i look at your sending money thing, it does NOT show your address, ANYWHERE. clicking details shows me absolutely nothing man.

this is Because you paid via MOBILE phone.

everyone is so damn quick to just throw out the scammer name, i have 100% perfect feedback with zero issues, your gauges will be on the way, if i hadnt lost my damn password to this site ida replied sooner, i also posted the message on chitown that i FIRST sent to you, with my number in it.

either way, miscommunication, lack of it...problems being taken care of, enjoy the gauges buddy.

I did read the thread. It took 9 weeks for palric to get his stuff and junkcltr still hasn't seen his.

Not sure why your keeping this thread alive but it's hard to understand why you would want to.

It's OK though, I'm the IDIOT
