Consumer Narrative
On the night of XX/XX/XXXX of 2020 I purchased 3 items on line for a total of {$510.00} from XXXX and pay pal was a third party. The side was ended to be fake and I was scammed. The transition appeared in my card as PayPal superstore and it said I bought the stuff from a wired side which wasnt XXXX XXXX. I immediately called the number on the back of the card and they cancelled my card but the transaction was through so they filled a dispute with PayPal. I called the real XXXX XXXX and they didnt have any records of the purchases so they said I was scammed and it have happened to other people. I dont know why pay pal wont give me my money back because they know it was a scammed. I have done some investigations and there is around 145 people that have been suffered the same scam that I had. In addition Pay pal know I didnt got the items that I purchased not knowing that I was dealing with a fake side instead of the real XXXX XXXX. According to my bank the items were delivered to New Jersey and I live in CT. I put my correct address when I did the purchases but still the items were delivered to New Jersey.
