Re: Not Receiving Ebay or Online Purchases....
 

I would like to ask if you wrote a letter to the district attorny of that county? If not then write one to him detailing the problem and ask that he take action. If you have gotten litte out of them from previous letter, then CC the second letter to the state officals that are over his office. They have a responsibility to protect the public. Hold their feet to the fire and above all do it in writing.

When you write a letter they have to take some kind of action where they can slough off a phone request and not follow through. Persistence pays off. Don't be afraid to be a pain in the ass. This is the advice my attorney always gives me and to date it has sure helped. Now I only have to call him when the letters don't work.

Good luck,

Here's my add to this:
I paid for an Item to a guy in Glendale Arizona with Western Union Money Order.
I never received my items and thus filed complaints with eBay, Phoenix PD(because he used a MB Etc mailing address), after many weeks of complaining to everyone, Western Union replied to tracking of deposit of my M.O., and wouldn't you know it: It was electronically re-printed, cashed in a different city next to Phoenix at a Wells Fargo Bank with all of info paid to, items #'s, and my signatured all changed!
The Phoenix P.D. stated to me that because it was online, across state lines, that the FBI was the US gov't department to file this complaint with. It falls under a category I believe they stated as Document Fraud Investigations.
In the end, Western Union sent to me all copies of the cancelled M.O., then next sent to me an affadavit to sign & Notarize, and I guess I am suppose to be re-imbursed for all my troubles with that M.O.
This remains to be seen, but I am sure that W.U. notifies the FBI of such issues, and with that affadavit , W.U. can prosecute the individuals once I receive re-imbursement of funds!
I personally spoke to my 'B of A' branch Manager about their processes in relations to my issue pertaining to Bank Cashier's Checks. That manager stated to me that Bank Cashier's Checks hold more difficult processes to forge, but personally I feel anyone with bad intentions could make anything they want. Anywyas, he did state that the FDIC insured institutions hold greater power than Money Order folks regarding tracing, forgery, and prosecution to these matters.
I will use Cashier's Checks from my Bank until one is forged and then see what occurs! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

I would recomend that you keep writing letters. they have a habit of becoming effective. I have had great success with them. Just this week I was able to resolve a verbal dispute with a out of town customer simply by expaining my side of it and letting them understand where they stand and what I will do if they work with me. so much easier than having to hire a attorney and waiting for months to have it be resolved.

Don't give up on getting your money back. Find out if they are still in business and show up on their doorstep on a saturday raiseing hell and talking about how they screwed you.

Fraud is fraud and the authorities should be notified and keep on their ass and make them take action. if you have to take it to a federal level then do so. fraud across state lines is still a crime. The squeekey wheel will get the grease.

Hi Lester how are ya doing? Yes this is a great site. I really enjoy a lot the things that are discussed here. I'll post some pics of the cars in the next couple of weeks.

To the rest of the readers, Lester and I have never met but we came across each other 4 years ago or so while a friend of mine and I were researching 68 L34's. Lester has one sweet ride.

I've purchased several small items(car tim parts mostly for my 69 Z-28. However, I only dealt with established dealers with good feedback. Tried to sell same Z on EBAY with no luck. Ended up selling it locally for more moola.
