Post: Buyer Claims Shipped Rocks Instead of Item (Filed Police Rep

Posted by Justin Hall on 4/05/12
State of Florida Summary: I was the seller of a $800 RC Car. Buyer was met on an online RC Racing community message board exactly like this one. We agree upon a $800 price for the RC Car and the buyer sends me the funds via Paypal in gifted format. I ship the correct item as described with insurance and tracking. The buyer receives the item and claims I shipped him rocks. But, since the buyer sent the funds as gifted the only possible option he has of recovering said funds is to claim a Unauthorized Transaction. Paypal reviews the case and quickly determines that his claim was false and the funds are released back to myself. He then files a police report (Sheriffs Office) saying I shipped rocks in place of the RC Car. The buyer happens to live about an hour away in the same county. I've spoken to him on the phone and he claims they are making it a Grand Theft Case. The police report is now being processed and will take several days. Keep in the mind there are screen shots, texts, and phone calls regarding much of the previously stated case.
