confronting a scammer
A buyer messaged me today stating they received a empty package and that the seal was broken (mobile phone). I knew immediately it was a scam, especially since the message was poorly structured (and my gut never lies).
Since i have a business account, you can find the buyers number, so i called it, they answered and i spoke to them firmly letting them know ebay sellers can be mean too haha!
Fair to say he won't be back. If this happens to any of you to a high value product, just bombard them with calls and use their address as leverage (soft threats). ONLY DO THIS IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE VICTIM OF A SCAM.
Scam buyers are the pitfalls of this universe.
I knew the phone was in their household since we track the serial numbers during transit, so they definitely had it.
Moral of the story, just constantly phone them, use their address as leverage, and make a soft threat if you have to.
DISCLAIMER; I AM NOT PROMOTING VIOLENT MEANS, DO THIS ON YOUR OWN ACCORD LOL.
