Charge Backs
 
Ive been reading about these and they scare the **** out of me.

Can anyone shed some light? What can you do?

Chargeback's suck! Out of all the chargeback's I've received, 75% of those were actual scammers, and the other 25% were people who just didn't want to pay for anything. Out of those chargeback's I probably won 2% of the total since my items were virtual and I couldn't prove delivery. Comes with the territory I guess, we expect it to happen, and we try to weed out the bad from the good using verification after each order.

Aspkin I wish I knew the site but I forgot it, but it will give you return receipt on a email, it will even tell you if the email was opened and read..

That way you can prove delivery. Its more sites like that one, do a google search..

I read in a forum alot of people was using it to protect against charge backs and and scammers

For me at the end of my selling from my 12 year old account I had 5 scum buyers screw me over and each one of them did a chargeback, I put in the del confirmation and paypal allowed them to then dispute it as not as described and they got the item, the money back etc.

Buyers are becoming evil and they know the system on how to screw sellers over and get away with it.

Heck, I even had this sale is final, as-is and paypal still paid them.

"Out of all the chargeback's I've received"!! how many have you had?? the stuff im going to sell is 2k-15k. i dont think i can risk paypal....

Lol I had money come back once from a chargeback after about 7 months ago. I was like what the ^^$!. This guy did 3 chargebacks on me! >,<

I would never recommend Paypal for anything over 1K. Wire is better if they'll do it.

I agree. I wouldn't feel safe accepting more then $400 or $500 from Paypal. It's just too easy in my business to lose that money. There are so many ways to scam a person it's scary! If only my customers knew how easy it was... maybe they do and they're just good people. And Modee, the only way to stop scammers is to do verification. Verify their confirmed shipping address with their ip address. Only accept large orders if you're able to call the person against their confirmed address, same city. I know there are ways to ⊗⊗⊗⊗ a phone number, but you'll be surprised how many don't take the time do this. If its a child using their parents credit card, talk to the parents to make sure the charge is authorized. I've saved my self hundreds, if not thousands just by catching these little pucks. Make sure things match up. If someone's email address is rickzimmer@suckit.com, and you receive a paypal payment or merchant payment from samzimmer@suckit.com, then you know the person ordering isn't the same person paying. That could be a problem. There are tons of tricks you can do to verify a person. These are only a few.

When in doubt, hold off sending the item until you have 2-3 days to make sure your payment sticks to your account and doesn't get stopped.

I almost lost my business in the beginning because of scammers (identity thief's). Until I started verifying each order, I lost thousands… sometimes all in one day. Those were fun days! Now, we lose maybe 3% of orders instead of 25%.
