Urgh, so I purchased 500.00 wirth of amazon ctf. off a guy, they were set to exp may 1, no problem, I needed to get so,e things anyway fast, so I used them all by the 24th of april, Ijust got an email that amazon closed my account due to using a stolen CC. I was like what in the world, so I emailed amazon, apparenly the certificates he sold me were fraudently obtained.....So now my account is on hold, I am out the 450.00 I paid him PLUS the 500.00 I have to pay amazon becasue the charges didnt go through. I trieddisputing it with paypal, BUT becasue it is intangible goods, they ruled in his favor I emailed him, I dont want to jump all over him, I mean perhaps he was in the same boat I was you know, but this is CRAZY!!!! I LOVE my amazon accoutn and use it ALL THE TIME WAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For that amount of money he knew exactly what he was doing.

So sorry you were burned yet again. I think I would give up buying anything from someone online if I had your luck.

I totally agree...and if it was me i sure would let him know too!! I hope you get this worked out and get your money back or your goods & get your amazon acct back. I love my paypal and when they locked my account temp due to a dispute with them i about went crazy since i use it all the time to make purchases.

Were these sent via USPS? If so, it may be considered postal fraud.

Nope they were sent via email, and due to that fact that is why they are intangible accourding to paypal, I guess this guy did IN FACT know what he was doing, becasue his phone nuimber is invalid and he is NOT responding to my emails dang it!

Do a search of his email and you might find out his true info. I would also contact his email provider, tell them what is going on, attach the emails from him and amazon as proof, maybe they would be willing to help. I'd also file a police report.

Thats what I was going to say too! Call the police and report his butt!

Whats the guys name and email so we can all beware. Maybe someone will know him or can get u his info for u. I have found the people on this board to be most generous and helpful.

it is listed as mark powers, his email is [email protected] but that address is no longer taking emails as of this morning, they are ALL bouncing back to me! ITs my own fault! I will call the PD, I actaully filed a Police report on the last chic who scammed me, and supposedly she is sending me a money order for the 75.00 (she scammed about 3 grand out of people) the officer in omaha just called me yesterday to see if she paid up yet, and she hasnt so he said he would pay her a visit....GRRR why are people like this!
