I ordered a wood cutter, chain saw, rechargeable on 3/18/21.  The linked showed up on Facebook.  I did not receive my chain saw.  Apparently the company, Amphitrite Technology Limited has been scamming people all year.  It wasn’t until I found your website that I realized I had...

I can see there are several posts about the same problem. What can be done? Why has PayPal continued to allow the seller to sell? What can you do? What can I do, to stop others from the company”s fraud?

I purchased through PayPal; directly after this purchase my bank notified me that someone tried to buy a cell phone. What happens next? With so many reports of fraud, why hasn’t the seller been reported to officials? What can you do? What can I do on my part? I contacted PayPal. The company should be blocked from selling See Less
