thinki might have been scammed

[eNder159]

the guy gave me this tracking number

123EA60F0351276260

and i told him to ship via ups..and it hasn't given me anything back when i tried tracking the number on ups.com...

and i was looking at their format and it didnt seem to match anything

also tried matching it with usps.com thinking he might have sent it usps but the same result so what do you guys think?

*EDIT*

this guy mustve been smoking alot of ganja to mess up two parts of the tracking number
...he mistook the Z as a 2 and the A as a 4 ...-_- silly pbn kiddies

[eNder159]

it was a guy from pbnation for a vlocity hopper...he supposedly shipped it out yesterday at around 8pm eastern time ,he's from colorado , i figured the information would have been updated 12 hours later =T ...i used paypal with my credit card so im gonna wait a couple more days and call them up to say that ive been scammed and hopefully they can help me out track down who this guy is...the guy had feedback to ...only 2-3 posts tho ...gonna contact those guys to see if i can squeeze any information out of them

that's what i figured =T man i just hope this guy copied down the wrong info

Thats probably a USPS tracking number. You also may not get any info from the usps number until it is delivered. Its more of a delivery confirmation thing than a tracking #. They dont update it to well.

hmm good call it may be with the EA part =T anybody have any other ideas

[Chronobreak]

if its usps it will still say item is on it way.

gonna do some ip checks and whatnot and let ya know what i find

[behemoth]

you realize tracking numbers are somewhat pointless.

Most of the time, they dont show anything, and the package has already been delivered.

From looking at his feedback, you can see that he hasn't sold anything, just bought a few things.

I have never been scammed, but I do get bad tracking numbers from people at least 10% of the time. Anytime you have a relatively long, and random string of numbers, there is a good possibility of something being incorrect. Even automatically generated messages from UPS Quantum View have given me incorrect numbers in the past. The best thing to do is to try to double-check with the sender to see what courier was used, and if the number is correct.

Sometimes it says that. Most of the time it just says that it has not been updated. Then poof there it is at the door.

seriously though, it should be showing up. Is he respnding to your emails? If he's not I would file a dispute with paypal. That freezes the money in his account until its resolved. good luck

Ever consider relaxing and *gasp* giving it a day or two. Right now you're just coming off as paranoid

[MaD_SaM]

Yea take a deep breath! Did you try FED Ex? There tracking system is good. When they delivered my Mag the driver left it in the garage. It even said that in the tracking window. I got a laugh out of that.
