Hello,I bought a book on 5/11 and paid right away with delivery to a parcel pickup point.On the 8th I see on eBay that the package is marked as “shipped”.I contact the seller asking for the tracking number. He replies right away saying he would send it to me that same evening.He sends me nothing.On the 9th I receive an SMS and email saying that the package was delivered to the parcel pickup point.I go to the parcel pickup point but there is no trace of the package.I write to the seller again asking him to send me the tracking and who he shipped with.No reply and in the meantime the package is marked as “delivered”.Now, looking at the seller information, I see that the address listed does not exist.The package is nowhere to be found, the seller has vanished.Obviously it’s a scam, but I’d like to understand how he managed to get me the email and SMS saying the delivery to the parcel pickup point had been made?Thanks to anyone who can provide information on this.
