Pars-Digital and Mars-digital are selling hacked mp4. They say it is a 4 GB and it is really 1 GB.

I just email them, I´m waiting for replay.

Hi,
I recently became victim to this scam.
I can confirm that LCDGUARD is now BUY.MALL! as when i purchased a 4GB player from Buy.mall! the paypal receipt was from LCDGUARD.

My 4GB unit turned out to be a 1GB unit. Ive sent them an email and failing that I will be placing a fraud claim.
Theyre obviously aware of it as his ebay Feedback has negative ratings reflecting these hacks.

Hi,

i literelly just bought a 4gb mp4 from buymall...and i paid it straight away.

I then thought i look at feedback and came across negative feedback and reference to this site.

I dont know much about mp3 players but thought that a 4gb would be good to buy as its a decent size for my needs. How would i check if the player i get is actually a 4gb???

and what do i do if it isnt...would you just report it to ebay and paypal.

What does hacked mean?

Hi Samruti,
The way I confirmed the size of my MP3 player was to follow some suggestions on here.
The first thing I did was to upload as much data as I could to utilise the 4GB capacity. I found however that after around the 1GB mark everything was corrupted and unreadable.
I then used the MP3 utility and turned off the disk encyption by sliding the slider all the way to the left.
I found that this made the drive 1GB which is its real capacity.
I have since lodged a claim with Paypal.
I will only be happy with either a full refund or a replacement 4GB unit as that was my intended purchase. I wont be happy with a partial refund.

samruti, Hacked is when they take a small memory chip and then make it read much larger. If you bought a 4GB chiPod it is pretty much going to be hacked. At present 2GB is the most memory that they can support.

You are entitiled to a full refund including shipping.

"How to get full refund and how to expose fraudulent sellers?
Check if the seller is still actively listing the same counterfeit items right now!
After confirmimg receiving counterfeit item, you should complete the Item Not Received or Significantly Not as Described process dispute after 10 days of item closing date so that eBay or Paypal is alerted of the development of fraudulent situation. If you have paid by Paypal, you can also complete the Paypal Buyer Complaint Process to get refund from Paypal within 45 days.
Since you have NOT been provided with what you have paid for, it does not falls into seller's return policy. You are covered by the 90 days protection period under eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program.
Unless these fraudsters would risk their eBay account for permanent suspension, they will for sure be in contact with you quicker than anything else. You then regain control of the situation and the power is again on your side.
Counterfeit is FRAUD, do not settle with the seller unless the seller is paying for all the associated return shipping cost of the item.
You still own the right to provide negative feedback against the seller to alert the fraudulent situation to warn other eBayers.
Provided that you have provided negative feedback to the seller and if subsequently the seller provides you with an unfair retaliatory negative feedback, you have a case to lodge against the seller by requesting eBay for feedback removal to fully protect your feedback.
Effectively you will get your money back either from the seller or from eBay/Paypal. Most important by going through this, you have assisted the process of exposing fradulent sellers on eBay, which will result in permanent suspension of the seller's account.
In most countries, FRAUD is a CRIMINAL offense and injunctions may be brought against the fraudsters to prevent them from moving on under a different name after being banned. Thus, you may choose to contact your law enforcement agencies or each respective brand manufacturers in your region, to report counterfeit and provide them with your item detail and the source of the item."

You may also need to get a 3rd party to confirm that the player does not meet the specs of the player you purchased and if possible a high resolution photo of the open player so that the serial number on the memory chip can be clearly read.
