Need urgent Help bought gun from here and being scammed.
18 September, 2013, 22:55
Hello,
I am in need of help, the situation is I bought a gun of this forum, It was supposed to be a G&G FN2000 in like new condition with extra's, but what turned up was a JSL FN2000 in well used condition and the extra's where in very poor condition.
I communicated with the seller as was very reasonable with them, but the just stopped responding so I have had to set up a dispute on Paypal. They are now trying to cover their track by deleting the forum sale post and have lied on the paypal dispute.
If anybody could give me any help or advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Dont say to Paypal that its a RIF, they will shut the dispute down and you wont get anything. Please say you didn't 'gift' the money, as if you did, you're even more screwed

It's not the one I thought it was.
There's a scammer operating openly on this forum. Please be aware of who you're dealing with.

Hi,
The seller had positive feeback so it seemed ok I used paypal and didn't gift. Do paypal shut down disputes if they know it's a RIF?
