What has been happening on this scam is the purchaser claims to received a empty box or a box of rocks or wheel weights and files a claim with a photo of said box.
Paypal always takes the purchaser's side and you loose it all after the purchaser sends back to you the box of whatever he took a picture of and documents that to Paypal with shipping info.
Seller gets box of crap back nothing else.
Seller looses everything.
This happens in the states and overseas.

The easiest way to combat this problem is to take the items directly to a UPS store and pay them to package, insure and ship them. Then when they pull this crap UPS will get involved and its not pretty for the crook trying to rip you off. All UPS stores have cameras in them. They will pull the video and show them to the crook of thier items being packaged and shipped. Once they sign for them they own them. I got caught up in this one too. But had insurance to cover the items I was shipping. UPS did not want to pay me for a set of cylinder heads I shipped to a crook in Denton Texas. I will say they did not relent. They proved the video to the police down there and the thief got arrested after they did some looking and found where he had sold my heads to someone else. Not sure what the outcome was last I heard he was trying to plead it out.
