Thank you for that detail - I presume that you posted a “want to buy/trade” for a Sub in that FB group. If I appear dense, please accept my apology. Just trying to unravel for better understanding. I am not judging - I empathize with your loss - it’s like a robbery/burglary. I know firsthand how bad that feels. The chain of prior ownership appears to be: Person1 >>> Person2 (young guy) >>> Person3 (scammer Mario Wo). What did either Person1 or Person2 tell you about the watch’s authenticity and/or Mario Wo’s integrity before you did the deal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

To the OP- even if this trade came to fruition, both parties would have to pay Customs duties on top of the trade value/cash. Did you undervalue the watch that you sent? That may hurt any cooperation from the German government. |

Sorry to read about this debacle. Facebook is to be avoided, just like Chronocentric. Chris Essery @HorologyHouse was pulling his scams on the FB platform too.

So OP what exactly did you receive? I know both sides filmed the shipping process to confirm everything was above board, but how did the tracking info unfold? Did he 'actually' ship something? Were there updates for the tracking?

Just to clarify.
Is this the scammer on ebay with same watch. If we have evidence that this is same "scammer" then I can report it and possible get him removed. Sorry if I missed the plot Adam

Russ, so let me understand, you see the package as "in transit"?
For how many days now?

I believe those are the photo’s and screenshots from the FB deal that is at the core of the scam being reported here. Not from eBay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Hoping you could get back your Exp1 at least. Consider that Paypal FF gone, though.

I think you can contact who you sent the watch through and get it sent back to you, since it is still in transit. If you have already discussed this please excuse me.

The shipping status the OP has been referencing is the purported Sub that the scammer supposedly shipped to him. The OP’s Explorer has apparently arrived at the scammers address. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Please be careful and on the lookout I just got scammed
Please let us know who the shipping carrier is (FEDEX, UPS, DHL etc) - the one that is handling the package that the scammer said he shipped to you.

All in bremen along the same street. |

Thanks - but do you mean Deutsche Post? There is no usps in Germany. There is a DHL service that hands off to US Postal once a package arrives in US and after Customs clearance here. But if it is still in Germany, then it is likely stuck in their own Customs*. This way he could fetch it back by now. * Per German export: To go out of the EU, Customs clearance is necessary. The Customs clearance office checks the export declaration, controls the goods and authorizes the collection of the goods by the carrier. The goods are held for a period of 20 days maximum.

Apologies Pyclah for hijacking your thread. I've deleted my post and will make a new thread. Having been scammed previously I know how devastated and frustrated it makes you feel. I hope you manage to find a resolution to this and I hope the local authorities help you. Best of luck!

I’d start your own thread on that problem. It is different issue.
To be fair to OP, I’d suggest solving 1 problem at a time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
