How far did you go in the process? Had you already appealed and got your money back?

How far did you go in the process? Had you already appealed and got your money back?

No, I had only taken the first step by contacting the seller. They had until tomorrow (6/29) to respond.
I just now received my refund notice.

It may be like when my internet goes down. The first complaint is treated like an isolated incident, by the time they get the 10th call they know it's not isolated.

It's interesting that my tracking number still shows "In Transit" since 6/20. I, too, would like to know what is in the package.

I got the same " didn't get valid tracking number" message from ebay and almost instant refund. I wonder if they use random tracking numbers from other sales to scam ebay and buyers? That would explain tracking packages delivered to wrong addresses.

Well that looks familiar, just got that notice as well, but looks like you overpaid for something you didn’t receive! I must have gotten the special scammed sale price

It would be interesting to know what was delivered. i had one a few years ago, that when I filed for the refund, the tracking stopped there, and never proceeded further. Makes me wonder if it was a fake tracking link, or a boggus tracking company altogether, as it was like China post, but a name I never heard of.

I entered the tracking number given by be_zero_be in the USPS tracking site and it is legit tracking number. The package description is small packet. It appears the scammer is using using real tracking info to create the fake tracking. Most likely to create enough of a diversion to cause a delay in a refund request.

Glad you are all getting your money back. I'd be willing to bet the tracking number is legit for someone else's product. I sell stuff on eBay and my USPS tracking numbers are something like "9505 5128 xxxx xxxx xxxx xx". Seems like the numbers are likely pulled in sequential order, so just pick a number and enter it. Nothing is secure about the number, so it would be pretty easy to plug a few into the USPS tracking site and you'd eventually hit a legit one. Probably works the same for China post.
