Police won't do F all lol. I bought an Xbox one off a guy on eBay from Swansea. All the bad feedback started soon after. Turns out he was selling Xbox ones and PS4s like there was no tomorrow. Just from the feedback he got it worked out around 2 grands worth.
Got my money back easy from PayPal. But not sure how it works and if the seller is in anyway at all penalised. How can they take the money back once they've cleared there PayPal?
Anyway, reported them to the police, and got the other buyers to do the same. Did the statement for the fraud department ( bearing in mind I knew his address, found his Facebook with a picture of him, even what at he drove with the number plate) and they did nothing. Said there wasn't enough evidence of fraud?! Lol
