Hi all ,
This might be a little much to follow but stick with me .
This a rough breakdown of how this all pans out …..
Its payment for services rendered i.e. very private 1 to 1 cam work / other service etc. .
she doesn't even send the item . just keeps relisting the same item over and over for whatever the "buyer" owes for her cam time / other service .
They then pay her for the "item" ,she marks it as dispatched and then the "buyer" leaves good feedback , (as you all have seen) , thereby telling those "in the know" that her cam / other services etc. are good .
All following so far ? lol
Anyway , so as the buyer has left good feedback for the item , (she has been selling for a while , so selling feedback not really a problem). eBay's automated system releases the funds. then as always , its paid out to whatever account she set up to send payments to. (showing as eBay sarl on her statements) i.e. clean
so the buyer has their item , and she has been paid for her time / other service ,and its all done through eBay's payment system . (comes up as a purchase on eBay ,on the buyers bank statement. no explaining themselves to wife /company about strange payment. )
so she has been paid for her "item" as a private seller (all vat and tax paid) apparently!
Buyer happy , untraceable payment for cam/other service .
Then the cycle repeats …
Hope this is clear and makes sense to all , and not just the ravings of a loon lol.
trust me she is not the only one doing this
so when I said eBay has a underground sub culture, dark underbelly , i wasn't lying.
or am i just a nut who should wear a foil hat .
any input would be appreciated .
