Re: There's a Thief About.

Interesting, Usually EBay/Paypal will automatically give you contact info
when a transaction is involved. I've had to call sellers
about delays & other problems and have always been able to obtain the
contact info. The safest way to do things through PayPal is to use your
credit card, thus getting an additional level of protection.

I saw an advert in a magazine called Macromart, well known and well read
weekly. The item was an A3 printer, the private advert looked good, not to
expensive but not to cheap, it stated preferred payment PayPal, I ran the
email address through Ebay and it told me he had a feedback of thirty odd
with 97.7% positive feedback.

I paid after a couple of emails from him, I sent the money through PayPal
to
the email address he had given in Macromart. That was the last I heard
from
him, I started a dispute with PayPal and have got nowhere, infact they
insisted on waiting ten days to see if he replied to their emails and
nothing, of course he had cleared out his PayPal account in that time.they
then asked him to return the money, what a joke, any one know of a thief
retuning freely the money he has stolen.

I am asking this group if anyone may have come across this Thief, he is
using multi addresses one is jonjones26@xxxxxxxxx the other we have found
as graham.pickford@xxxxxxxxx Because of data protection both Macromart
and
PayPal refuse to pass any details to me, seems a thief has the same
protection as an honest person. he now has my postal details and I have
nothing about him. He could be anywhere in the world or the person living
next door.

The Police have been informed and I have a crime number but at this time
they have not found him. I have no complusion in broadcasting his email
addresses, I do however hope someone may know a little more than what I
have
been able to obtain. I apologise in advance if anyone thinks this is off
topic, I think otherwise. Thank you.
