Scam AlertPosted By Anthony Stulpin |
I have also been scammed on a "too good to be true" offer on OfferUp. The ad was a link to a legitimate looking website that even processed PayPal. I used the PayPal option...Thank god. After 2 weeks, I finally got tracking info. When I checked the tracking, it showed that the item was delivered 4 days before, but no delivery address was ever shown, just my zip code. Of course, I never received the package. I contacted UPS to try to get the full address & delivery confirmation. UPS said they are not allowed to give that information without a subpoena. I then contacted PayPal & sent them the tracking information. They proceeded to attempt contact with the seller. With no luck making contact, PayPal then refunded the entire purchase amount back to my PayPal account.
I will never use any other form of payment, unless it's cash for a local pick up. PayPal does have your back!
