I think I received a fraud sale. It is a big order involving many items bought (not surprising).
Paypal did not block the payment or alert me, but I suspect something fishy when I tried to email the buyer and the emails that the "customer" gave me all cannot be used (including the Paypal email).
But wonder how come the payment still went through? Address is valid.
If I keep quiet, yes.....I can withdraw the money and pretend nothing happened. I already shipped most of the items anyway.
But, what if the people at the address complain that they NEVER bought the stuff?
There is A LOT of FRAUD nowadays.....caused by bots or humans.![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any advice? I am now 100% sure for those of you making lots of sales everyday, that some of them are FRAUD/FAKE.
This thing happened to me before, but that time, Paypal detected it and warned me not to ship. But we cannot rely on Paypal because A LOT of CC info get stolen nowadays, and many syndicates are testing their bots......on YOUR ecommerce store.
