Scam Description
Ordered product, never received. Even though did not pay with paypal, some how may paypal account got comprised.
I paid with my credit card and the transaction was flagged immediately and I was sent a new card, and protected. Then credit card company got transaction confirmed by merchant and I was responsible for payment. The website for the merchant no longer exists so I’m not sure how the transaction “checked out”. If you check tracking information- it went to a different address.
The shipping tracking confirmation came from a paypal email.
