I had an item like this before
To me it was when my item was relisted by buyer

This is scary!!!!! I'm pretty sure Tradesy will catch up. Otherwise their business would go down to the ground for scams like this
It's not the same tracking I got. Mine was delivered September 12 to California. I bet she used different tracking for each sale and might have tried to get the zips close to the buyer's.I always use a credit card, never my Tradesy Balance since I know there are scammers like this around. I know tradesy will cover me though, it should be so clear that I just bought the item late today to only have tracking show "Delivered" on October 1st to a completely different state. Bad scam once you look at the tracking LOL!
They need to come up with a better system/enhance the one they have. One reason I like Posh is because they send you a label and you have to use the one they sent to have funds released.

The tracking I got doesn't show where it originated; it just shows out for delivery and delivered. Isn't that odd? Shouldn't it show the entire trail?
Her listings are down now. I suspect Tradesy will get on top of this soon. I can't believe their system designers didn't consider making sure the tracking delivery date isn't before the order date, and that the delivery zip is the correct one for the buyer.
No, that tracking in and of itself isn't necessarily odd. And in fact, the post office didn't always call it "tracking" because the entire trail wasn't shown. Thus, "delivery confirmation" was (and is) all that's needed to show proof of delivery.
All her listings have been removed but I have not heard from Tradesy, so I'm wondering if an automated system pulled her account. When I go to click on the item I purchased as well from my purchases it redirects me to other items for sale. I can still see all the correspondence her and I had.
On the issue of tracking, she said mixed up tracking numbers with her ebay tracking, obviously was her trying to make it sound less suspicious. The tracking she provided originated in California.
Glad all of her listings got pulled. Wonder how long her scam has been running and if she can just sign up using a different name and start over. Hope you get your money back soon.
Just got off the phone with Tradesy- upon calling and explaining what happened, the CS Rep immediately told me Tradesy knew of the seller and her scam. She said Tradesy's Trust and Safety automatic server caught the seller last night at 3 AM EST, shutting down all her listings. She said my refund was automatically pulled last night so I should see it processed soon. So it seems if Tradesy's server/program will recognize these issues, but still lets the seller enter the tracking anyway. I wonder if the people reporting all her listings helped as well.
If they were aware, why didn't they suspend her sooner? Why risk future buyers finding out about her and stressing, as Whateve, ToriChan and others did last night?
Thanks for the update. I didn't buy anything from her but I was concerned about those of you that did and curious about how they would deal with it.
I know I reported every listing that was active and I detailed what she was doing. I wouldn't be surprised if multiple reports from everyone triggered something in Tradesy's system.
I'm glad you all will get quick refunds!
I sold on there before. It was a Celine bag and it went quick. I think 2 days after I posted it, maybe less. The transaction went smooth. I purchased something from there and it was a complete nightmare. I was sent an empty box and customer service was awful. Eventually, I hashed things out with the seller and it turned out to be a mistake on Tradesy's part.
