Sent a payment by bank transfer but guy ignores me?
I bought an iPhone 5s for 410 euro. I sent a bank transfer to the seller on Friday last and he told me it went to his account on Tuesday. He told me he missed the post on Tuesday and that he'll have it sent out Wednesday. He was very fast at replying up until Tuesday when he said he'll give me the tracking number on Wednesday afternoon. On the Wednesday when I messaged him asking for the tracing number he promised he replied saying he was working and his wife posted it earlier on. I sent him 3 messages since and each time I sent him a message it showed on his profile he came online.
Is there anything the police could do in tis situation or even the bank?
Should I message him saying if he doesn't help me sort out the situation I'm going to get the police involved?
Any help appreciated.
Did you buy through a site like ebay, or find him on Craigslist?
It's possible you have been scammed.
Sad to say, you may have been scammed.
Sounds like he either never had any intention of sending it to you, or something came up (maybe someone else offered more money for it), and he's now dodging you.
Sure, you can report it to the police, but especially if he's in another country, it may not do much good.
I'd go to your bank, though and talk to them. They may be able to track down the account that this person used, and ask his bank to freeze it.
- This payment method can't be used with the iTunes Store. Try again using another payment method. I get this error when adding PayPal? As a payment method. I live in the US and this is an option. I've contacted my bank, iTunes and PayPal and they say their is no problems at their ends so what is going on and how can I fix this. Btw I use to use PayPal as a payment method
- Payment showing up in email but not on account balance? I just sold my iPhone 4 on craigslist for $400 but for shipping he have me $500(lives in Nigeria) and on my email it says I got the money but on my account balance it says $0.00!
- My sent folder is not showing all the emails I have sent. Why is this happening? This seems to be random, with some showing and others not. Since Thursday, nothing I've sent out is in the sent folder. More worrying, on my iPhone, the entire sent folder has been emptied.
- I sent nudes to a guy and now i really regret it? Please don't tell me how wrong I'm, because I already know that. I'm pretty much disgusted with my self actually. I'm just looking for some advice. But anyway, he's just a random dude from the internet that I met. Were both 18. He asked me to snapchat him nudes so I did. I did include my face in a separate picture. It didn't say he screenshotted, but I recently found out that with an iPhone you can and the other person won't get a notification.
