Please help!!!!!! Any advice in solving this matter is greatly appreciated!
I listed a 1.38ct cushioncut diamond solitare ring on Ebay as an auction. After 5 days of the auction had passed, I was contacted via ebay from userID greatobsessions stating she and her husband were interested in the ring. They had questions regarding shipping to Brooklyn, NY. She asked me to contact her on her gmail address bc she couldn''t receive ebay messages during the day. Her email was *******@gmail.com. I was dumb to communicate with her via email, but too new to the ebay world not to. I''ve learned my lesson now.
Vanessa sent me an mail staing she wanted the ring and was willing to pay the amount posted of $6250.00. She asked me to send her a paypal invoice in which I did. The next morning I received an email on the email account that I set up my paypal account and ebay account with. The email was from "paypal" stating they had received the amount of $6250.00 from Vanessa Isaac and funds would not be released to my paypal account until I provided them with a tracking number. I thought this was great and a good security measure to protect me and the buyer. There was a link located within the email where I was to click and enter the tracking number. I went to a Fedex store and shipped the ring overnight to Brooklyn, Ny to Vanessa Isaac, *****Street, First Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11230. Once I done this, I entered the tracking number in the link within the paypal email. A short time later, I received another email from "paypal" stating the tracking number was verified and funds would be released within one to two business days.
I continued to check my paypal account and never saw the funds posted. By this time, the package would have already been delivered. I called paypal and they informed me that this was a fraud act and the money had never been paid. I immediately called Fedex who informed me the package was delivered and signed for by S. Isaac.
I have investigated this matter to the fullest. I have also contacted local law enforcement and NY law enforcement. I''m hoping this matter will be resolved. I know will never see this ring again nor will I probably ever see the money. I am out completely. They ripped me off and they don''t care that they took away from my children during this act.
I have the name of the person that lives at the address and none of the names match Vanessa Isaac. The family claims to not know anything about this nor anything about any packages being received by Fedex. I want to harass them about this issue, but what if they really are as innocent as I am. Fedex driver says that he went to the first floor and knocked on the door and handed the package to a white male in his early 20''s.
Why are these criminals still relaxing in their home while I stress over the issue? I have also received email alerts from Mylife saying that someone by the name of Italo Tardio searched for me from Brooklyn. I don''t know anyone in New York and have never even visited the state. I reserched this name and found that someone with that name lives at ******Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230. What are the chances of this happening? Are they involved? Who really committed this crime? Why are they still free?
Ebay and Paypal say that have nothing to do with this and won''t give me any information to help solve the issue. However, if Ebay didn''t allow their system to be hacked into by other members, I would have never been in contact with this persont o begin with. Ebay states that greatobsessions account doesn''t belong to the the person that contacted me????????????????////
Please help!!!! From what I understand, other packages were deleivered to this address on the same day or day after worth great value. They are still doing this to people. How???? I would love to speak to someone else who is dealing with this same person.
