Here is the slanderous email that your buyers receive when you are EBAY suspended

[anotherguy]

As we all know, eBay sends a slanderous email to the buyer if you are suspended or auctions cancelled. Just look at how hard they try to get the buyer to do a chargeback etc. Its ridiculous and illegal.

Dear yXXXXt (jXXXXX08@aol.com),

That is why you always need a paypal "insurance" account. It is basically a legit paypal account you create to protect your ⊗⊗⊗⊗ or high risk paypal. You simply pay yourself from the legit account to the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ account. If they limit the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ account, you refund back to the legit "insurance" account. Or if they totally lock down the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one, file a compliant from the legit to get your money back.
Example: Say you sell an average $200 a week in your high risk account. On the first of the month (or what ever start day you pick) You send $400 from you legit account.
You are paying yourself so you get it out later that day, by check or ATM debit or bank account, whatever you use top normally get the money out of the high risk account. Now you should be emptying it out every other day, but say you have a very good day and sell $400 the next day and paypal limits the account. Well for one, you do not ship out any of the new orders, and you simply start refunding to everyone else starting with your $400 insurance payment from your legit account and then everyone else starting with the last item shipped. It they totally lock down the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ paypal, simply file a complaint form the legit account.
The new people that did not get a refund, will do chargebacks and the account will go negative.
Also, if by some chance you have more in there then "insurance payment", refund to the last person you shipped to first, working backwards. Chances are they have not received the product yet so they will be responsive. Email them and tell them someone hacked your paypal account, so paypal has refunded the payment and they should now pay you again at the new account paypal set up for you if they still want the item.
In my experience about half will, so you basically get paid twice. Once by them and once by paypal.

YES- they send to ALL of your Buyers--then the Paypal INquiries start.,..
Here's what I do:
_--AS SOON as you are suspended- go to your email box-- get the emails ebay sent-- saying "SOLD"-- then forward to those Buyers a Generic Note-
Dear Buyer: I am sorry- we just had our Ebay acct HI-Jacked by someone Out of the Country- they listed like 30 laptops in the last couple hours... Ebay Trust + Safety is working to restore our acct asap- IN the Meantime- all orders that have been paid for have been shipped- the tracking numbers have been emailed from paypal..
Keeping my fingers crossed-- they'llhave us back up soon.. so we can exchange POsitiveFeedback.
Best Regards
Seller (your name)...

isnt this an easy way to scam paypal? you send like a thousand bucks from a few of your paypal accounts into one totally ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one, withdraw the money, then file chargebacks, so now you made that money...

[Jonas]

You can't file chargebacks forever or your credit card companies might jack you up.

Most buyers I see who scam will do a lot of shopping in one month and then claim their card was stolen one and a half months later. I saw a person with over 1000 feedback from buying do that and they had it all shipped to the card's home address, too, but the items were under $250 so they didn't have to sign and so the credit card companies won't do a thing if they buyer didn't sign for them.

[ivegotinfo]

no way, the credit card companies would at least check the address it was sent to..shouldnt they? even with no signature..
