eBay buyer disputed charge for MacBook I sold, left me $1300 in debt
I sold a MacBook Pro M5 2025 on eBay back on December 23rd, 2025. Then on February 8th, the buyer disputed the charge. It put my account $1300 in debt and they keep charging my card for it.
The buyer claims she didn't do it. But I spoke to an eBay representative and that rep told me the buyer did dispute it and they can't do anything about it. So now I'm just stuck with this debt.

Got a fake eBay message about a sale, lost almost $300
I'm a new seller on eBay. I got a message saying a sale was made on one of my items. When I checked it, the message from "eBay" said I had to start a verification process to get paid for my previous orders. I hadn't been paid for those yet.
It redirected me to a page that looked just like eBay. I started the verification they wanted. Next thing I know, the money got snatched right from my account. The charge showed up as rapid skins Bristol. It was $293.93.

Ordered socks on eBay, got a watchband from China instead
I ordered three pairs of socks from a posting on eBay. I never got a tracking number or anything. Then I got a parcel in the mail. It was from China but it had a USPS sticker stuck on top of it. The return address was for some US address. I opened it and inside was just a watchband. That’s not what I paid for. I lost almost $33 on this.
