Comments on: Customer Dupes Amazon for $300,000 in Returns Scam https://www.ecomcrew.com/customer-dupes-amazon-for-300000-in-returns-scam/ Start and Grow Your Ecommerce and Amazon Business Wed, 10 May 2023 02:08:44 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.3 By: LisaK https://www.ecomcrew.com/customer-dupes-amazon-for-300000-in-returns-scam/#comment-56424 Tue, 07 Mar 2023 22:41:49 +0000 https://www.ecomcrew.com/?p=20329#comment-56424 I have a combination of problems all supported by Amazon’s policies. As a seller of a single product that I make myself, I have a problem with the Amazon “full refund at first scan”- I absolutely get returns that are just the box, not the product, or product boxes that they just slap the mailing label directly onto with a pound of packing tape, thereby completely ruining the packaging, as well as just dirty, damaged products…but they have already received their full discount and I’ve paid for the shipping each way. The second scam is the “undelivered” scam. I actually tracked one through, and had proof that the scammers had sold my item under a false listing on a fake Walmart site, (sold to my dad, the investigator in this scenario), then the order to his house came into Amazon, looking like it was placed by him. I shipped it out, to see what the whole scam was going to be, and sure enough, a few days later, someone posing as my dad contacted me on amazon messaging saying the package was undelivered and they wanted a full refund immediately. I sent a picture of the delivered item with the real customer- my dad- to Amazon and reported the whole train of events and submitted proof. They said I needed to send it to another department. After I did that, guess what? The second department said I needed to send it to another department…which happened to be the first department I had sent it to! Then the fake customer opened an A-Z claim, no doubt frustrated that their free money was taking so long. I responded with all the evidence again- and had to repeat this twice. Then Amazon said it was under review. 4 weeks later, Amazon said it had paid the people, but I wouldn’t be charged. So- they completely endorse, support and continue these scams. It must be millions of dollars for this type of scam alone.

I could imagine that the big thief’s do make a dent into drop shippers pockets but how about the accumulation of the massive amount of little guys that are only fraud returning one item of 600 dollars or the even smaller guys that is fraud returning 10 item worth 10-20 each?

I bought a TV on black Friday on sale. It came way earlier than anticipated and in a snowstorm. Hence, I missed the first 2 delivery attempts. Received on 3rd attempt. It’s a Thin Q and has a hairline crack. I notified 3rd party seller. They asked me to keep at a discount and go through LG to repair. I got the flu. Didn’t reply for two weeks. Then, went online and saw they provided an RMA and a label. Go through hassle of getting a neighbor to take me to UPS. Label was not prepaid. Again, contact seller. They offer me another discount. I said no. Then another. I don’t believe that LG is going to even cover this under warranty since it’s not a defect of the product. If I accept the sellers offer of partial refund and LG does not repair, what is my recourse?

In the last three weeks I have purchased 2 what is advertised as Amazon returned Anycubic 3D Resin printers one was a Photo Mono 4K and a Photon Mono X. Once opened the product was not the 3D resin printers advertised or resemble the stickers on the box that the “printer” was returned in. They were instead the Anycubic Wash & Cure 2.0 which are significantly cheaper than the printers.
I would hazard a guess that the printers were purchased with the wash & cure. The wash & cure was then put into the printer box and returned. Keeping the printer. And getting there money back for it.
