Thanks for the reply. Its kind of reassuring to know others are in the same boat. I have read most of this thread but excuse me if this has been covered before, but has anyone gone to ebay about her? I can imagine it might not work but surely if enough people complain then they would begin to take action ?? Or maybe I am just naive.
Loads of people have reported her to Ebay, she gets banned and then starts up a new ID and rips off more people
Thats just the thin end of the stick it seems. 0 -

Well I have now read this post from start to finish and I must say it was far better than watching Jeremy Kyle!!!
I want to say what a wonderful and supportive bunch (excluding a couple lol) you all are, working together to protect more innocent victims.
I for one have learned alot about protecting my credit card details, although when ever I have made any on line purchases I have ensured that the sucure yellow padlock sign is at the bottom.
Last year I was scammed myself, from an internet site by the nice sum of 3 grand!!! I ordered furniture of which never arrived, the police got on to her and found she had scammed over 20 grand out of folk, 3 grand of it mine!!Fortunately I paid using my credit card and this was recovered.
Informing others of scams is important, and if everybody were to help each other, what a better world we aould all live in.
To those of you whom are collecting evidence, I wish you all the best. To the OP good luck and I hope you are felling much better now.
It would be nice to know the final outcome of this too.0 -

Fraud is hard to blow out of proportion.
