Scam contentsI ordered a folding laptop desk from an ad on Facebook on April 15, my Paypal account was charged $70.13, and I have not received the item. I'm quite certain that I WON'T receive it. One account statement from Paypal listed the seller as HIPPOCAMPUS CO. LTD. The next account statement from Paypal shows the seller as FOLKSWAGEN Co. LTD. Both the Invoice IDs and the Transaction IDs are the same on the statements. HOWEVER, my bank statement containing the information on that Paypal purchase shows the name of the company as CELEBRINO Co., Ltd. The email link on the Paypal account page to contact the seller is BOGUS.
Comment / ReviewAlso, I live in MA, where the sales tax is 6.25%. The cost of the item was $54.99, shipping was $5.99, but the SALES TAX CHARGED WAS $9.15! A 6.25% sales tax on $54.99 equals $3.44. A 6.25% sales tax on the item cost plus shipping ($60.98) equals $3.81. So the sales tax charged was 2.7 TIMES HIGHER THAN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN!

THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM! I thought Paypal was supposed to be a secure payment method. Thank GOD i wasn't ripped off on a bigger "purchase".
