EBay scam? - 1

I put an Xbox up for sale on eBay classifieds for 600 euro.

someone contacted us and we phoned and wrote on WhatsApp, exchanged ID cards, etc. Since the person didn't want to pay the fees, they sent me the money through friends and family.

When the article arrived, there was an immediate message from PayPal that the person claimed it was an external access.

Well… Unfortunately, that will be hard work. Ebay classifieds is not intended for pick-up for both parties for a reason: / Realistically speaking, you will never see the money again

Best to go to the police, they can do something

There's definitely something for you here →

Well, that's too many things at once that prevent unauthorized access. Just make an ad and see what happens.

Expect your console and money to be gone.

Next time you are more careful and do some research before you want to sell something. After that it's always kind of stupid.

This alone: Since the person did not want to pay the fees

That should have seemed suspicious to you.

Huh, doesn't make any sense, he wanted to pay with friends and family and that means at his own expense! Console and money is not wasted! PayPal did not collect the money!

This comment makes "no sense" ;-)

Well, bad luck for your brother / you would have thought about it and concentrated on things like school!

How bad are you?
Do you talk to yourself?

So it was friends and family. You know them, don't you? Or?

Where is the problem?
