My question involves business law in the state of: Michigan
Hi,
I used to be a casual seller and more frequent buyer on e-bay (not anymore, anti-both at this time). When selling, about 20 times since I started on e-bay over a 10 year time period, I would get paid through paypal. Recently (July, 2015), paypal changed it's buyer's "Unauthorized Charge" and/or "Not as Significantly Described" claim to 180 days after the sale. If their claim is successful, you have refund the buyer's money. If a claim is put in for something you sold, the only concrete evidence paypal will except to fight in the buyer behalf, is delivery conformation (and it must be viewable by them online). If you sent the item to the buyer via USPS, the tracking information is almost always deleted after 120 days (tracking numbers are recycled). That gives the scammer 60 days to put a claim in. Furthermore, paypal takes a $20 charge-back fee. This has been happening to a lot of people/sellers, despite paypal's claims otherwise. It happened to me.. ~$100. The only evidence I had, was positive feedback from the buyer saying that "All is well, everything works". It was not good enough!!
Does anyone know of a way to fight this, or heard of this scam to comment on it?
Thanks, -Bob
