Hello and that's about it I want to sell my ps4 on ebay classified ads. I and the buyer would like to take as a payment method paypal. But now I'm afraid that the gentleman withdraws the money. This has happened to me ever schonmal with a cell phone where I have sold an intact cell phone and the gentleman then said afterwards it would be defective, whereupon my paypal account was blocked and in the end I had neither money nor cell phone. Can I secure this by letting the gentleman send money for ps4 with the "friends & family" function? Thanks in advance, I hope that is understandable explained
I would not advise you - at friends / family there are no fees - that does not like PP - happens more often you can catch a lock
Yes of course but that's not it's about protecting myself is it possible that the buyer can withdraw his money if I let him send it over the family & friends function? Because as soon as he can withdraw the money I have the problem because how do I want to prove in retrospect to the contrary if the buyer claims the ps4 was allegedly defective or empty cardboard?
How about instead of PayPal with a normal transfer?
Nobody will take away the money on your account.
Unfortunately, this is not possible for me my account I can't use grad because minus.
could it help if I let photograph the photograph of the buyer where to see his address and I also send the package only to the address on his ID card? Thus, in the event that he withdraws the money at least go to the police and make sure that I at least get the console again is that safe?
How can one be so stupid to make the same mistake for the second time?
Paypal on eBay Small ads is NOT secure!
There are also tricks for Family and Friends, which can be used to rip off the seller.
Personal handover and cash - this is the only way that is safe for both sides.
Payment by bank transfer is safe for the seller, but no reasonable buyer will get involved because it is completely uncertain for the buyer.
How can i be so stupid i just try to hedge myself?
would it be safer if I have a photo of the ID card sent and send the package only to the address on his ID card? So I could theoretically be sure to get back the console if he pulls the money back
It is stupid that after your bad experience, you are considering such an insecure way again!
Paypal on eBay Classifieds is NOT safe!
No matter what you think - 100% safety does not exist.
If the buyer is a cunning fraudster, then he will find a way to rip you off.
Sophisticated scammers are plentiful on eBay Classifieds and reckless sellers who offer Paypal, have the very special focus.
Okay as I said it minimizes the chances of being ripped off when I take a picture of the ID card, check the address with the paypal address and send it to this address?
