I won a electronic keyboard as high bidder ( Korg Triton LE 88)

I sent the guy $1080 via Cashiers Check thru USPS overnight.

The guy cashed the cashiers check and NEVER sent the keyboard.

I filed all the complaints I could RE: his local sheriffs dept. online fbi fraud and of course ebays compliant process.

The Scammers  name is Mike Rose out of Colorado

I only got ebays $175.00 payment claim after 2 months

i should have supplied the bar of soap

The fbi, sheriffs dept did absolutely NOTTA

The Moral of this Travisty is NEVER NEVER use money orders or Cashiers checks

Only use paypal if your item is worth under $175 (becuz that is all you can ever get back)

USE YOUR CREDIT CARD FOR TOTAL PROTECTION OR BORROW ONE AND PAY THE CARD HOLDER CASH

BE SURE TO VERIFY SHIPMENTS TO CONFIRMED ADDRESSES OR IF THEY WILL ACCEPT A CREDIT CARD NOT IN YOUR NAME

You have total protection with credit cards and you can get ALL your CASH back within the 30 day deadline.

during that time over a year and a half ago i had purchased over 10k in musik equipment, I was so inflamed over ebays lame proceedures and LACK to control FRAUD including the FBI and the Lame Sheriffs Dept. I Stopped using ebay until now.

I will only pay with Credit Cards   

GOOD LUCK
