Scam Description
I bought a pair of sneakers that were BRAND NEW as advertised by the seller. When I received the item, they smelled like a pack of cigarettes and also had ink stamped on the front of the toe. I tried to do a dispute with the website that hosts the auctions to let them know that I received an item that was not as described. They asked me to send photos via email and also asked me to ship the sneakers to them to verify my claim. After receiving them, they said that they are shipping them back to me and not refunding my money. False advertising is FRAUD, I feel i have been scammed and taken advantage of and anyone who runs a proper and decent business would have smelled those shoes and saw the ink and apologized for the condition that they were in. This is fraud and no one is helping me.
