I was doubly ripped off by seller hargaretchimee w/ a crap player, and paying the shipping to send it back-before I discovered that it was part of this big scam.
My wife filed (and added as this liar corresponded with us) a report with ic3.gov, and we finally even got our shipping money back and were contacted by the police!!
don't just sit there, file and get your hard earned money back!!
They have no right to get away with this junk!

This is excellent news and a great way to shutdown the larger scammers who will no doubt receive multiple complaints. It may even put pressure on eBay to take some action.

Thanks Ashaver33 time for a sticky.

The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C).

IC3's mission is to serve as a vehicle to receive, develop, and refer criminal complaints regarding the rapidly expanding arena of cyber crime. The IC3 gives the victims of cyber crime a convenient and easy-to-use reporting mechanism that alerts authorities of suspected criminal or civil violations. For law enforcement and regulatory agencies at the federal, state, local and international level, IC3 provides a central referral mechanism for complaints involving Internet related crimes.

Is there an UK equivalence of ic3?
Thanks.

I think ic3 is an international one. Just try filing it in. Don't wait. Fight back for consumer rights. While we're on the same topic, I am going to file a complaint against flashman852 of Ebay soon for non-delivery of an item after 4 months. Have been kept waiting and given false hopes and empty promises. Praying for a positive outcome in my favour!
