new ebay buying scam beware

[slappy]

Scams like this on eBay are on the rise, you sell something, buyer pays so all good you think. Then buyer tells ebay he has not received goods/not as described/damaged and raises a case against the seller. The money they have paid the seller is then taken from the sellers account and the buyer then sends back some worthless item, not the item you sold originally, buyer now has original item for free, seller has nothing but a hole in his bank account. As far as ebay and paypal are concerned the buyer has sent back the item and received a full refund , they do not check or care that the item returned is the original.
On eBay it is seller beware more than buyer beware these days.
